Fellow fiends: Our trusty (sic) weather-caster has predicted the season's first frost for later this week. :-/ I just want to say that in my experience there are few places cozier than a warm MGB on

One of my fondest memories of driving in my first MGB ('73 in 1975. Regency red, wire wheels, overdrive, 34K miles) is from Knoxville, TN. where for the whole month of October I drove the car daily

I'll take a diametrically opposed situation. . . When I was searching for Buick/Rover parts a few autumns ago, I chose to drive my B with the top down in a light rain, wearing my leather bomber jacke

With the 180F thermostat, what temperature does your 'B operate at when it is fully warmed up? I'm up to the 190F version in my '67 B, and my (mechanical) temperature gauge settles down to about 175

My guess would be that yes, you are coling too much with oil cooler. They do make a thermostat for oil coolers that people rarely use. Most MGs probably get run only in the warmer months and then th

Append the following to my previous note on your 190F thermostat question: My comment was that the oil cooler was not the cause of your low engine temperature. Mark Dodd had a good point (in his disc

The advice in the UK from oil cooler manufacturers is to always fit a thermostat if you fit a cooler. The oil companies apparently spend a great deal of time designing the oil to operate in a certain

Jerry Caused asked: My '63 runs at 175-180 degrees with a 180 thermo. Hardly. The function of an oil cooler is cooling oil, to keep its viscosity up, not to cool the engine. The oil doesn't even go t

In the colder weather, I have been concerned that the oil cooler is unnecessary and prevents the engine from reaching correct operating temp on short commutes. What I have routinely done is to cover

Most of the catalogs sell an "oil cooler thermostat". This is spliced in-line with both hoses (must open a bypass when cold). Might be a bit more elegant... I have been leery of it just because I liv
