 Yes, I could request YOM plates fo the Bugeye, but the black plates that came with the car were assigned to this car at one point and still belong on the car IMHO.Mike M

 California black plates were issued 1963 - 69. A yellow plate with black letters would be correct for a 1960 Sprite. They ran from 1956 - 62.

Plenty of documentation for this online.

You should be able to kerp it as it was assigned to the car . I'm sure they
have a fee for that .

As long as you have both plates and they came with the title, you get to keep them. And quite in character with the DMV as it gives them less work to do. I've had three cars with black plates and they all passed through this way.?

What is the secret to tightening the rear shock mounting bolts on an
Armstrong lever arm shock absorber? After attacking the problem
unsuccessfully with many different tools I ground one side of an inexpensive
9/16" socket until it would fit to hold the head of the bolt. Surely BMC had
a better method.

It's good to use a grade 8 bolt (they don't stretch) and a metal lock nut
and steel washer and tighten like hell.  Ideally the bolt has a proper
shoulder and isn't threaded to the head (technically these are hex
screws).  Make sure all surfaces are clean and no oil (spray with brake
cleaner or something like that).  You can also try a safety nut and wire
it....

Good points; those nuts will work themselves loose and you'll get 
'thunks' and oblonged holes (this is one place my go-to threadlocker 
didn't help).? I got some Nord-Lock washers, but haven't installed them:

I just did this. I took a large flat head screw driver and wedged it
between the bolt head and the chassis to keep the bolt from turning when
tightening the nut.

My secret to tightening shock bolts is to use socket head bolts. That way
you can hold the bolt heads firmly with a big allen wrench and get the nuts
really tight.

Message-ID: <CAMoKZw8R6gMrtevaHkYPVJU8R7nd8c=Lopp7psCGUs44o2zHxQ@mail.gmail.com>

Just realized that my side/running lights front and rear don't light. I
don't drive at night very often so I don't know how long this has been the
case. Head lights, turn signals and brake lights operate as normal. Checked
the dash lights and they work when the switch is in the middle position. I
bypassed the light switch and put power directly to the light circuit, but
nothing. I checked the fuse that I put in to protect the circuit, it's OK.
Not sure where to go from here. Any help would be appreciated.

Mark,

See my response to Mitch.  I won't give specifics because everyone and
every car is different.  I am not trying to avoid the question/answer.

After 60 miles of spirited driving Thursday and 120 spirited miles
yesterday (including sliding the car on numerous curves), I filled up this
morning and used 22.1 mpg thru the Blue Ridge mountains for the 2 days of
driving.

Not everyone will do this.  Gas mileage, for me, is simply an indication of
my level of tuning and my driving habits.

Rust Oleum smoke gray is a good match for the original color.

You need a copy of the Concours Guidelines...

Figured it out. The double electrical connector in the engine compartment
on the firewall wasn't getting power from the red wire from the light
switch. The bullet connector was loose into the connector. It all works now.

Stainless steel is the way to go.

Sound is created by the manufacturer, not the material any more. Most 
after market systems are designed to produce a louder and "deeper" sound 
than original, not for BHP?s. The pattern is usually more or less 
original, however in the US many systems are cobbled together on 
European cars, at least that is what we see in Europe when these cars 
are being reimported from the USA.

As the cars are not driven regularly, corrosion is an issue thus mild 
steel exhaust may not last very long especially the rear silencer as 
acid condensed water rots it out from the inside, especially when they 
are straight through filled with glass wool.

Stainless steel silencers are usually straight through and filled with 
glass wool. In time this glass wool gets sooted up or is blown out of 
the box leaving you with a very loud car. This would be the same in a 
mild steel system, however the silencer would have rotted away long 
before it gets that far.

I have just painted my hood frame and other grey parts (rain channel,
tonneau rails, etc) in RAL 7040 which is very close to the original colour.
The RAL colour standard is the most common paint colour standard in the EU
for all industrial paints.  My Old English White car is being painted in RAL
1013, since I could not find another colour which I thought was close.

I bypassed the light switch and put power directly to the light circuit, but nothing. I checked the fuse that I put in to protect the circuit, it's OK. Not sure where to go from here. Any help would be appreciated.

Simon:   As stated by the seller in his description of the car, the Jamaican was named after the wife of the company's owner, Bud Godwin.

The Jamaican was a fiberglass kit body offered by Fiberfab, Inc., and produced in California and Pennsylvania, designed to fit on an Austin-Healey chassis.  To quote the sales literature, "Classic...Elegant...Sophisticated...An automobile that will always be in style...Marked by the creature comforts you've grown accustomed to... conventional doors..roll-up windows...plush interior...and much, much more".

One of them showed up, for sale, at one of the Tahoe meets.

It looks like a Fiberfab Jamaican, a fiberglass kit car popular(?) back in the 60s and 70s. You could put the fiberglass body on a number of frames, including Austin-Healey. Putting a V8 into it and calling it an Austin-Healey Jamaican isn?t a lie, but it is awfully cheeky to ask ?75,000.00 for it. Maybe the race history is worth a lot.

That's exactly what it is.  The Jamaican was a fiberglass body that was
designed to fit the Healey frame along with a few other sports cars.  It
was particularly attractive to those with rusty Healey bodies, but a closer
look might have found a rusty chassis under those rusty bodies. Speaking of
the California company, Fiberfab, that sold the Jamaican, they always
featured some rust-free bodies in their ads that were also particularly
attractive to young guys like me.  Additionally, they sold the  Avenger
that was a GT40 look-alike for the VW and the Banshee that was a Cobra
Daytona clone for Healeys.  For the Road & Track faithful, the Jamaican was
designed by Chris Beebe, Peter Egan's good friend.  In addition to a Healey
frame , the Jamaican also had an available custom frame for a V8 that did
over 200 mph at Bonneville.  I think a lot more were bought than were ever
finished.  Today's Cobra kits seem much easier to complete than those old
kit cars ever were.  They seem to be more valued by our European and
British cousins than in the states, but I still think they are very
handsome.

I?m going to go out on a limb here and say that if it is was actually completed, sorted and has a multi-decade racing history that it is probably worth that much to the right buyer (not me).  

 

I?ve seen a few decrepit unfinished kit cars????.To have actually executed the build, sorted it and raced it is pretty impressive, and it does show well in the photos that I saw.  

 

If it is as advertised, it is a lot more than a ?kit car?.

That's exactly what it is.  The Jamaican was a fiberglass body that was designed to fit the Healey frame along with a few other sports cars.  It was particularly attractive to those with rusty Healey bodies, but a closer look might have found a rusty chassis under those rusty bodies. Speaking of the California company, Fiberfab, that sold the Jamaican, they always featured some rust-free bodies in their ads that were also particularly attractive to young guys like me.  Additionally, they sold the  Avenger that was a GT40 look-alike for the VW and the Banshee that was a Cobra Daytona clone for Healeys.  For the Road & Track faithful, the Jamaican was designed by Chris Beebe, Peter Egan's good friend.  In addition to a Healey frame , the Jamaican also had an available custom frame for a V8 that did over 200 mph at Bonneville.  I think a lot more were bought than were ever finished.  Today's Cobra kits seem much easier to complete than those old kit cars ever were.  They seem to be more valued by our European and British cousins than in the states, but I still think they are very handsome.

It looks like a Fiberfab Jamaican, a fiberglass kit car popular(?) back in the 60s and 70s. You could put the fiberglass body on a number of frames, including Austin-Healey. Putting a V8 into it and calling it an Austin-Healey Jamaican isn?t a lie, but it is awfully cheeky to ask ?75,000.00 for it. Maybe the race history is worth a lot.

I must say, I'd never heard of one before. Looks very pretty and sounds
to have been well and truly sorted. Like the Miura-like style, but I'd
rather have the real thing (Miura) - sorry I know that's anathema here :-)

As for price: It has a decent history, it would appear to have had a lot
of work done by people who really know what they are doing and has a
racing pedigree and is HRDC-registered. It's probably eligible for a lot
of historic events.

That being said a properly sorted Healey of similar vintage is getting
to be quite expensive over here:

https://rawlesmotorsport.co.uk/CarSales/austin-healey-3000-mkii-bn7-centre-change-2/

Conclusion: It's over-priced but possibly not by that much. I would
guess by about ?10k. What distinguishes it is what has been done to it
and it's proven performance and competitiveness.

The other thing of course is that if you are going to race it, you'd
better have enough spare cash to be able to rebuild whatever you break!

As a matter of interest would the Mk1 register accept it? or for that
matter AHCUK HDI?

Peter,

Would the MkI registrar accept it?  This one would.  The idea is to 
document the history of all Austin-Healeys built.  Whether or not it's 
still an Austin-Healey isn't involved.

Cheers,

Thought that it might be. Personally I would certainly consider it one.
After all ther all sorts of other specials. I just wondered if this one
had been "evolved" too far.

Subject: [Healeys] 100 front shroud "nose" measurements
Message-ID: <081227FAECCC4F8FA31BC8722293ED76@HomePC>

We?ve finally found a good metal-worker to re-shape the damaged nose of my BN1.  The challenge is to know what the proper shape is!  I have both an original splash apron and a steel repro?identical in shape?which clearly show that the lower right side of the nose was pushed in quite a bit and so the bottom of the front shroud is narrower across than original.  (Now I understand why the car had no splash apron at all when I bought it 23 years ago....)

Of course a template would be ideal, but measurements would be adequate.  Can one or more of you give me the measurements across the front of the nose, as marked in the picture?
                        
I bought a lower nose repair panel from AH Spares (area from about point ?A? down) but it doesn?t fit the contour of the original splash apron, and the metal-worker prefers to straighten the original rather than re-shape the replacement panel.  (Anybody want to buy said panel?)

As always, thanks in advance for your help!

I always thought the 'roadsters'--mainly, the 'N' series--were 
two-seaters (by definition):

Where are the back seats in a BNX?

Well, not by my understanding.? By Webster the 100-4 and BN6 and BN7 would be roadsters.? So what would you call all the other models - convertibles?? Whether roadster or convertible had nothing to do with the number of seats for a big Healey.? Roadsters had a removable top with frame (100-4, BN4, BN6, BN7) and convertibles had the top frame attached to the car (BJ7, BJ8).? My .02

Message-ID: <MWHPR07MB2878BF4A3427FBD6D33E951CA5D40@MWHPR07MB2878.namprd07.prod.outlook.com>

To Michael Oritt and others who were interested in this topic I have a late contribution:

On the late test drive of my 100 after having it laid up for some time and installing new brake shoes (I can't remember the source, but probably Moss) I encountered the same problem.

On removing the brake drums, which took some extra effort, I found that the shoes didn't have the proper arc to fit the drums. they were touching the drums on the leading and trailing ends, but not in the center. The excess thickness at those points made installation difficult and caused the shoes to drag on the drums.

After searching out all of the old school brake shops in town I found that nobody has the equipment or expertise to reline or arc brake shoes anymore. A possible argument for converting to discs in the future

I therefore resorted to the method recommended by my old strengths of materials instructor, the BF&I (Brute Force and Ignorance) method. I place each shoe in a vice and, noting the contact pattern on the surface and mindful that I was probably abrading an asbestos material I wetted the surface down with simple green and applied a flat bastard (note to moderator; this is an acceptable technical term related to types of files, and besides it is fun to type...) to the shoes and removed a few thousandths of an inch of material where they had been dragging.

I got the first set right in one try and had to do a test assembly and rework on the other, but both sets are now sitting on the lowest points of their snail cams and the drums slip on and off with no interference. The whole job took less than half an hour including disassembly and re-familiarization with the assembly process.

I would guess that the BN4 designation for the early 6 cylinder cars was already set while they were still working out the details of design.

BN was used to designate two seat roadsters and BT to designate four seaters, but since all of the paperwork had already been done using the BN designation by the time the left hand discovered the right hand had added two more seats they decided to make an exception.

The other way to look at it is to think that Austins didn't take the four seat configuration very seriously and that it was only a sales ploy not worthy of a new designation, both notions have some shred of plausibility.

If we are confused by all of this after the fact I think we should be aware that Austin's bureaucracy could have been equally confused while it was occurring.

To me, a roadster is a strict two-seater without roll-up windows and a 
hood that has to be erected (or assembled if your prefer). Everything 
else can be called whatever anybody wants (like a certain German company 
who sells 'coupes' that are really sedans with a sloping roofline).? My 
BN2/100M is a roadster, my BJ8 is a 2+2 convertible (my Mustang is a 2+2 
coupe whose back seats are even less useful than my BJ8's).? Of course, 
your mileage may vary.

And, since we're being pedantic there is no such thing as an 
'Austin-Healey 100-4.'

I remember these from the early Sixties, in fact if anyone has any copies of 'Motor Sport" from that time, a quick scan of the back pages where the small ads are will yield any number for sale.

I have always thought them a particularly handsome car, but i don't recall Healeys being the "platform" of choice, that was usually a distinctly downmarket tumbril of a Ford Ten or Austin ditto.? I seem to recall that it was produced to compete with Peerless, Elva and suchlike fibreglass creations, as were the plethora of imitators from that time.

Being SERIOUSLY pedantic for a moment, I always cringe when I hear our American chums pronounce "coup?" as "koop", which is the correct pronunciation of "coupe" meaning "cup", rather than "coopay' meaning "cut"which in automotive styling terms makes much more sense.? The little accent over the letter "e" is the dead giveaway.

Looks like the answers are all over the place. I think the real answer is that the seam where the front of the fender and the shroud meet may be the only straight line on the car. If you are sure the top of the shroud above the headlamp is true then just try dropping a line straight down from there and I think the dimension should be close.

I now have a '55 BN1 and measured the front for you as per your requirements. A is 43 1/4 " across and the measurement for B is 42 1/4" across. Hope this helps.

We?ve finally found a good metal-worker to re-shape the damaged nose of my BN1.  The challenge is to know what the proper shape is!  I have both an original splash apron and a steel repro?identical in shape?which clearly show that the lower right side of the nose was pushed in quite a bit and so the bottom of the front shroud is narrower across than original.  (Now I understand why the car had no splash apron at all when I bought it 23 years ago....)

Of course a template would be ideal, but measurements would be adequate.  Can one or more of you give me the measurements across the front of the nose, as marked in the picture?

I bought a lower nose repair panel from AH Spares (area from about point ?A? down) but it doesn?t fit the contour of the original splash apron, and the metal-worker prefers to straighten the original rather than re-shape the replacement panel.  (Anybody want to buy said panel?)

As always, thanks in advance for your help!

Here is my fix for rear shocks. 
Once you make the rear nuts captive, you can concentrate on doing them up tight.

them to dispose of their arcing machines due to liability issues with
asbestos particles in the air.

When you pull the brake lever, how many clicks before it stops?? I had this issue with my BJ8, and when I had the brake lever pulled all the way up the brakes were still not fully engaged.? It turned out that I needed a fair amount of tension on the rear brake actuating rods to make the brake lever engage the brakes with a reasonable amount of brake lever pull.? Maybe you just need to tighten the adjusting nut a little bit more.

Finally got the e-brake installed in my BN2.? Has anyone replaced one of the e-brake cables that are offered by the usual suspects lately?? The clevis end of the cable at the rear brake shoes is at the very end of adjustment.? I mean there is only a few threads screwed into the clevis and there is a slight pressure on the brake lever at the backplate causing the shoes to expand just a little.? I know it will stretch eventually, but the cable just seems too short.? Doesn't seem right.? Am I missing something here?Mike MacLean

The most common measurement is 43-1/4?, so that?s a good starting point.  Car is 30+ miles away from me, so will be a few days before I can compare with its dimensions.  But the plumb line is a good suggestion?IF the shroud above the headlight isn?t distorted too!

Looks like the answers are all over the place. I think the real answer is that the seam where the front of the fender and the shroud meet may be the only straight line on the car. If you are sure the top of the shroud above the headlamp is true then just try dropping a line straight down from there and I think the dimension should be close.

That?s similar to, and appears to be simpler than, my solution, which I replied to Harold and the list on 8/2.  However, I never saw my response show up on the list.  Odd.

A cross check would be to make sure that the rear contour of the apron
matches the contour of the lower front nose area.  It doesn't have to
be exact.  That's what the beading is there for :-)  But it should be
fairly close so that the bolt holes match up if you have some
originals to match to, and -with or without matching holes -  the
whole thing looks right.

If the shroud nose fits the apron, and the parking light half-holes
and the headlight half-holes in the shroud match the other half of the
holes in the fenders it will look right.

Been there and done that.

 The time to make sure the splash apron fits the lower front shroud is during the bodywork, before the paint.Mike MacLean

If the shroud nose fits the apron, and the parking light half-holes

holes in the fenders it will look right.

Once you have the contour of  the top of the fender and the front shroud lined up properly lengthwise and secured with all the adjustment plates and screws, then and only then should you tackle the front of it up and down. This is the method the bodyman I use lines up everything to start with and this guy has years of experience in fabricating and shaping the front of our Healeys and he?s done at least ten Austin-Healeys in the past.

Thanks Curt. 
I used arp stainless high tensile 170,000 psi bolts, with an undersized hex head, so there is no issue getting a socket on them. I also made up a thicker tapered washer so I could apply as much clamping force to the shock, spread over as big an area as possible. 
And the back is a drilled piece of mild steel with 2 nuts welded on. 
Once the nuts are captive, all the effort can be applied to torquing the bolts up. 
Best
Chris

Chris,
 
The ARP bolts are an excellent suggestion. I used grade 8 but still had the
head clearance problem. I will change to ARP.
 
Thanks... Harold

Albuquerque. Had a set one several years ago at Lewis Brake and Clutch. I ent there yesterday to find it closed, boarded up windows broken and graffitied. I checked with several local sources and found no-one doing that work in this town anymore.

To Michael Oritt and others who were interested in this topic I have a late contribution:

On the late test drive of my 100 after having it laid up for some time and installing new brake shoes (I can't remember the source, but probably Moss) I encountered the same problem.

On removing the brake drums, which took some extra effort, I found that the shoes didn't have the proper arc to fit the drums. they were touching the drums on the leading and trailing ends, but not in the center. The excess thickness at those points made installation difficult and caused the shoes to drag on the drums.

After searching out all of the old school brake shops in town I found that nobody has the equipment or expertise to reline or arc brake shoes anymore. A possible argument for converting to discs in the future

I therefore resorted to the method recommended by my old strengths of materials instructor, the BF&I (Brute Force and Ignorance) method. I place each shoe in a vice and, noting the contact pattern on the surface and mindful that I was probably abrading an asbestos material I wetted the surface down with simple green and applied a flat bastard (note to moderator; this is an acceptable technical term related to types of files, and besides it is fun to type...) to the shoes and removed a few thousandths of an inch of material where they had been dragging.

I got the first set right in one try and had to do a test assembly and rework on the other, but both sets are now sitting on the lowest points of their snail cams and the drums slip on and off with no interference. The whole job took less than half an hour including disassembly and re-familiarization with the assembly process.

When I had it done before they ground them with a water bath. I suppose that wasn't considered to be enough protection.

I was told a few years ago that the insurance carriers for garages required them to dispose of their arcing machines due to liability issues with asbestos particles in the air.

It should not be an issue with the brake shoe materials used now days. In the past, when I had my shoes relined instead of buying new, I took my drums and the shop arced them.

I was told a few years ago that the insurance carriers for garages required them to dispose of their arcing machines due to liability issues with asbestos particles in the air.

Message-ID: <CAPTa0B6JPWJnC65e8anx+qvGnPzXVCDQUiFY8V-H1OCG5xBQ5g@mail.gmail.com>

Following last week's removal of the water pump that was throwing a nasty
mixture of grease and coolant around the engine compartment I am in the
process of reassembling things with a rebuilt water pump obtained from
Healey Surgeons.

The pump I am installing is tapped for a zerk fitting, but i have seen some
pumps where there is no tapped/drilled hole for a grease nipple, and i have
also read opinions about the wisdom of NOT lubing the pump with grease.
Can anyone shed light here?

Also i have read/heard recommendations to run the pump dry--without
coolant--for some period of time in order to promote quicker bedding in of
seal or something along those lines. What is the groups' experience/wisdom
on this?

Do not run the pump dry. Use normal coolant and accept some very slight 
leaking for the first few (or a bit more) miles while the seal is 
bedding in. Fit a grease nipple and gease as recommended but do not 
overdo this.

Hi,

I bought a Denis Welch clutch bleeder extension the other day. New on eBay.
Going cheap.an impulse buy.

See attached.

It's 240mm long.

So, has anyone got one of these things? Any good? Seems to me that it do
with being longer so it could be attached to a bracket per the third photo. 

DW stuff is usually (very) good but there are often hidden snags. Something
which is meant to be a simple fit needs a raft of modifications etcetc. Any
comments on that score here?

Seems like an easy fit, apart from the perceived difficulty in bleeding the
clutch..

Thanks,

Simon

My BJ8 had, I believe, the original pump on it when I bought it with 64K 
miles.? The fitting wasn't a Zerk but similar to the oiler fittings on 
old equipment; I bought a 'water pump grease gun' that looked rather 
like a large metal syringe with a stubby tip.? The special 'water pump 
grease' I bought came in a tub and was very thick and tacky, I don't 
think it would even go through a regular grease gun.? I suspect the pump 
you got from HS has a sealed bearing and the threaded hole is for people 
who want to go the extra distance on a resto and want to install the 
fitting, even if not used.? The definitive answer would be to call HS 
and ask.

I've never bench spun a pump before installing, and never had a leak 
from a pump because of it (blown bellows, yes, but not from the seal).

The bracket attaches to one in the bolts on the bell housing. You will appreciate it once it is installed.

3rd photo looks like Doug Reid's unit. I bought one year ago. Really makes
the job simple. No need for disjointed wrists.

Can't comment on the DWM extension, except that it does look a bit 
short, but I'll say using a tie wrap to secure it is a bit cheesy.? I 
wonder if it's supposed to be tied to something on the engine (the hard 
line)?? If so, maybe it's meant to only be used from under the car?? 
Perhaps the DWM people assume all Healey owners have a lift or get under 
their cars regularly?? To bleed the slave cyl effectively you either 
have to pull the gearbox cover, or drop the cyl (and the top bolt is a 
real bee-yatch to get to).

This conversation has made me very happy I bought one of Mr. 
Finespanner's extensions when they were available; I had a soft pedal on 
a long road trip once and bled my clutch in a parking lot while waiting 
for a restaurant to open.

Oops ... please disregard my comment--except for the 'cheesy' and 
'underneath/lift' parts--as I didn't see the second two photos.

Ira, where you get your MF extension?? Doug Reid passed several years 
ago (but his family kept his website going for a bit to liquidate his 
inventory).

Michael, I would suggest that you seek advice from Bruce on that. The
answers will depend upon how the rebuild was done.

Lin - if it leaks, is there a crush washer where it enters the slave?
I thought it looked easy to bleed with the bleeder screw hanging down via
zip tie.
The picture of the one with the hard line is my cunifer refurb of my Doug
Reid kit after the stainless line started leaking.

One could make the hard line version by getting a DIN coupling from Federal
Hill Trading and flaring the 3/16" x 20" brake line with a bubble flare at
either end. See:

Modern brakes contain no asbestos.
There is a Friction supply house in my city. They made my clutch disk for
my Smitty conversion. They make brake shoes and clutch disks for Semi

To Mike McClean and others interested in this topic: I just installed my emergency brake handle after having it out of the car to install upholstery. I was having a lot of trouble because the cable seemed to be two short and I couldn't get it to line up with the index on the handle. Then I remembered something I read in one of the manuals long ago (ah yes, memories...)

Setting the adjustment of the cable is dependent on the adjustment of the rear brake shoes. I removed the rear wheels and backed off the adjustment so that there was slack in the e-brake cable and at that point I was easily able to line up and install the brake handle. Once the handle  was installed I adjusted the rear brakes to spec and found the e=brake locks up on the sixth detent.

If you need extra length in the cable you can probably obtain it by this method.

 Thanks Bill.? My problem is the cable seemed to be too short with the shoes mounted with no adjustment on them at all.? This is before the drums have been installed.

I have a isdue with my e- brake. The little bit that is supposed to rotste
and lock into the detents does not do so. No clicks as I pull up on the
handle. Is thos something I can address without removing the tunnel. Either
way, how is this fixed?

Message-ID: <4b138064-a96e-4926-87a8-a3b000af8be0@me.com>

To start off, my car, an early BN1, #598 was burned up in the Paradise fire and I just bought another BN1 to replace it. The new car has been hot rodded up a bit. Cam, bigger carbs and different pistons so it has a way different compression ratio and has been in this configuration for over ten years I believe. Was told it runs like the wind and came from a reliable and trust worthy person. Well I'm having problems with the car. Up to 2500 RPM, it runs great! When I can get it up to 3200 RPM it runs great again, it's the 2500 to 3200 range where I'm having problems.
???It feels like it's starving for fuel, or it has too much fuel, it hesitates, feels like it's not running on all cylinders, and generally like a bucking bronco, but then at 3200 or so, she smooths right out and flies!
???I was told the carbs were set up a little rich. I leaned them out one flat at a time and no difference until they got too lean and wouldn't run well at all. So I took them back to original setting positions.?
???I've checked all gaps, they're all right. Pulled plugs when getting home and they are all fine, a little brown and all even looking. New condenser, new coil, changed to new plugs, I have not checked the timing yet, but with the way it runs below 2500 and above 3000, it seems to be just fine.
???I am getting the car up in the air Monday as I have new tires to replace the old ones and will do a static timing check at that time. My old four cylinder was a breeze to set up and ran smooth through all revs. What am I missing with an engine set up like an M? Why would things go south between 2500 and 3000 and run fine below and above?
???All suggestions are welcome and I do have a new fuel pump on order, so fire away. I've been doing things one step at a time to not introduce new problems, but this is the only problem that is consistent.
???Thanks,

Mine did this recently. I removed the lever and it was the tip of the pawl had worn. I welded and reshaped the tip. The nut on the end of the lever can be accessed from below so no deed to remove tunnel.

This sounds like a carburettor problem (wrong needles/jets/springs?) 
where the car is running very lean between 2500 and 3200rpm. Check if 
there are any vacuum leaks.

Check the advance curve of the distributor, may be a spring from one or 
both of the bob weights is loose/broken/missing.

Check the timing of the cam shaft.

Mixture, ignition and cam shaft settings can be very different from the 
original because of the changes in the engine. It should really be set 
up on a rolling road.

Hi Steve, check all of the things Kees said. If it is M setup with 1 3/4 
carbs it should have either OA6, OA7 or OA8 needles with red springs. 
Even with modifications is should be tune able with that setup.

Mine did this recently. I removed the lever and it was the tipof the pawl had worn. I welded and reshaped the tip. The nut on the end of thelever can be accessed from below so no deed to remove tunnel.

I have a isdue with my e-brake. The little bit that is supposed to rotste and lock into the detents doesnot do so. No clicks as I pull up on the handle. Is thos something I canaddress without removing the tunnel. Either way, how is this fixed?

ToMike McClean and others interested in this topic: I just installed my emergencybrake handle after having it out of the car to install upholstery.

Then I remembered something I read inone of the manuals long ago (ah yes, memories...)?
 
 ?
 
Settingthe adjustment of the cable is dependent on the adjustment of the rear brakeshoes. I removed the rear wheels and backed off the adjustment so that therewas slack in the e-brake cable and at that point I was easily able to line upand install the brake handle. Once the handle ?was installed I adjustedthe rear brakes to spec and found the e=brake locks up on the sixth detent.

Ifyou need extra length in the cable you can probably obtain it by this method.

The carbs have the red springs, one of the springs is quite a bit longer than the other and I did not check to see which needles are in them as per Larry's suggestion. I will do that. I will also check into the distributor, but like I said, this car was a driver for ten years, so I'm a bit perplexed. I will keep at though and report back.
Thanks!

Mixture, ignition and cam shaft settings can be very different from the original because of the changes in the engine. It should really be set up on a rolling road.

By "rolling road" do you guys mean something similar to a dyno testing machine where I can have the car under load and at speed while it's standing still?

Concur with Kees.

People have been known to get too clever with needles ie alter their profiles. So maybe your needles are wrong.

What sort of distributor do you have? Electronic ones are very clever?can be too clever. Maybe someone has set the advance curve all to hell or it?s got a malfunction. Though, with regards to malfunction, I thing they?re either 100% dead or 100% alive.

A good rolling road place where they?ve got springs, needles etcetc is a must. I?ve just been through something similar which was resolved by analysis at rolling road.

All the things suggested but before assuming that the plugs read okay do a
couple of hot shutdown's--that is, kill the ignition when at full
throttle--both when you are in that "stuck' range between 2500 and 3200 and
when you are at higher revs.  Perhaps a valve is hanging or one plug is
misfiring and then clears, but the plugs may point the way to the problem.

Just so happened I had this project in the queue.? I used a product 
called Kilmat--made in 'Russian Federation!'--that is considerably less 
expensive than Dynamat, and I had no issues with it (available on Amazon 
in two thicknesses; I used the thinnest).

Our BN2 has ?M? mods using a different cam grind then the factory M grind (Delta Cams) and 10:1 compression. The stock head compression chamber was cleaned up a bit and the ports slightly smoothed. I had to find the right carb needles to make the rev range smoother and to provide consistent performance. Took a bit of trail and error. Also had to play with the static timing but did not have to re curve the distributor. I run a few more degrees than stock but that has a lot to due with the cam grind.  Suspect that if the spark plugs fire at 0 RPM to 2500 and from 3200 up, its probably not a plug or distributor problem. The variable is the control of fuel and the mentioned potential problem areas (needles, damper springs and oil in the pots) have a lot to due with controlling the mixture.

....I?d be looking at the needle profiles. A Gunson Colortune is a great help as it allows you to see the combustion across the rev  range. I found the correct needle for the HD6 on my Shorrock blower (MG TC) that way.

Our BN2 has ?M? mods using a different cam grind then the factory M grind (Delta Cams) and 10:1 compression. The stock head compression chamber was cleaned up a bit and the ports slightly smoothed. I had to find the right carb needles to make the rev range smoother and to provide consistent performance. Took a bit of trail and error. Also had to play with the static timing but did not have to re curve the distributor. I run a few more degrees than stock but that has a lot to due with the cam grind. ?Suspect that if the spark plugs fire at 0 RPM to 2500 and from 3200 up, its probably not a plug or distributor problem. The variable is the control of fuel and the mentioned potential problem areas (needles, damper springs and oil in the pots) have a lot to due with controlling the mixture.

To start off, my car, an early BN1, #598 was burned up in the Paradise fire and I just bought another BN1 to replace it. The new car has been hot rodded up a bit.

Was told it runs like the wind and came from a reliable and trust worthy person. Well I'm having problems with the car. Up to 2500 RPM, it runs great! When I can get it up to 3200 RPM it runs great again, it's the 2500 to 3200 range where I'm having problems.

Got the new Moss catalog in the mail yesterday.? I started flipping through it and got a bit of a shock.? 100-4 side curtains in the previous catalog cost $749.99.? The new catalog lists them for $899.99!? That is one Hell of a jump.? I was lucky a few months ago to find a private party selling a brand new pair in black for $200.? I thought that I had done pretty well when I compared what I paid to the catalog then.? The new catalog makes the side curtain deal I made the best parts find of the whole restoration.? I have not done any other price comparisons, but I will be going through the new catalog page by page this afternoon.Mike MacLean

Pound was $1.20 today ... lowest I've seen it since I've been watching 
it (several years).? Got some parts from DWM a few years ago @ $1.24/PS 
and thought that was a good deal.

DWM supposedly has a deal with UPS that lowers shipping costs and, 
hopefully, reduces some of the Customs hassles (NFI).

I used similar insulation in the floors and the tunnel inside and outside.
Made the tunnel much heavier.  Also, applied to the inside of the bonnet.
Much less expensive than dynmate and really sticks to the metal.

Subject: [Healeys] Alternator Pulleys
Message-ID: <F6AC0E68-A2E0-46C1-9067-EE0465E02D97@gmail.com>

I have installed an alternator in my BJ8 to support ac with mixed success. Since our cars use a v-belt system I had to replace the pulley that came with the alternator(serpentine) with a v-belt pulley.  I have checked the power the alternator and at idle, it is below the amperage needed to run the equipment I have installed. 

When I look at the circumference of the v-belt pulley and the serpentine pulley, the v-belt is definitely smaller. Should I use a v-belt pulley of similar size?  Increasing the circumference of the pulley will make the alternator spin faster and maybe solve my issue of slow engine speed/low amp output, I think.

If my thinking is correct, how big of a pulley should I use?  I presume that if the pulley is too large, it may make the alternator produce too many amps and damage it.  Should I match the size of the serpentine pulley or buy a pulley based on a calculation?  (FWIW, I have no knowledge/experience to do this). 

The pulleys on the crank and water pump are standard Healey. There is ac installed and the pulley on the compressor is larger than the old generator. I have a two belt system so the alternator is belted to the compressor which if what I said above about larger pulleys spin their equipment faster, how should this be accounted for?

I may be over thinking this but I would like to run the ac at a reasonable idle. Has anyone approached this and came up with a resolution?

Thank you so much for any light that can be shed on this.

...if you want the alternator to spin faster, you?ll need to reduce the size of the pulley on it, not increase it.

At idle of 800 RPM the alternator would be rotating at 2400 RPM so you should have a good output at idle. The smaller the alternator pulley the faster it will spin.

I took Dave's advice and found a product at NAPA that is 3M 08440 Sound deadening Mat. It comes in packages of 10 50cmX50cm sheets which figures to about 27 square feet per package. The cost was a little over $100 including tax which works out to about $4.00 per square foot. It is similar to Dynamite, but If I recall the last time I looked at that stuff it was about 3 times that cost. It doesn't have the foil facing, but I don't think that presents much benefit anyway.

I lined the floors, part of the firewall and the doors with it. Now the doors close with a clunk, not a clang.

I used similar insulation in the floors and the tunnel inside and outside.  Made the tunnel much heavier.  Also, applied to the inside of the bonnet.  Much less expensive than dynmate and really sticks to the metal.

Yeah, should is the right term. At some point you run into diminishing returns. I'm not sure the added value of the slight reflective effect of the foil on the interior surface is worth an extra $8 a square foot.

In any event, unless you are doing significantly more idling than driving this drawdown duning idling is not really significant. This is what the battery is for. If you had an ammeter you would see the amps pick up after idling to bring the batt back up to full volts.
Of couse you need a good batt, and alternator.

Hi all

My fuel tank has a couple of pin-hole leaks on the underside due to rust.
Is it a good idea to repair them with something like JB Weld?

Thanks

Hi all

 

My fuel tank has a couple of pin-hole leaks on the underside due to rust.  Is it a good idea to repair them with something like JB Weld?

 

Thanks

Charlie,

The tools are a combination of Black Phosphate and Black Paint.  I've
restored a number (six) of original tool kits.

Give me a call and I can walk you through the process.

Curt

Definitely something to do with the Dizzy if you ask me - weights / springs
/ vacuum advance.

Have you run a timing light on it and see what the advance says ad
different RPMs?  You can mark TDC on the pully with a marker and see what
happens when you run up the revs.  If it advances steadily as you speed up
the motor, then it might be the carbs but I still think it's the dizzy.

You guys are just too critical.  My BJ8 (with Toyota 5-speed) is still a real Healey.  I can tell by the oil leaks. I think that the transmission drips a bit too just to keep the rest of the car happy.

  Of couse you need a good batt, and alternator.

At idle of 800 RPM the alternator would be rotating at 2400 RPM so you should have a good output at idle. The smaller the alternator pulley the faster it will spin.

Since our cars use a v-belt system I had to replace the pulley that came with the alternator(serpentine) with a v-belt pulley.

If you use a slurry to coat the inside of the tank there it may clog the fuel line pickup filter that is inside of the tank. Replace it.

Hi all

 

My fuel tank has a couple of pin-hole leaks on the underside due to rust.  Is it a good idea to repair them with something like JB Weld?

 

Thanks

It is not at all interesting if it is a "real" Healey or not. What is 
important that the car is functioning properly as the owner would like, 
original, modified, hot-rodded or whatever.

Anyway there are probably no 100% original running/real Healeys in 
existence. Other lights, oil filter, ignition, transmission, 
dynamo/alternator, SS-exhaust, tyres, wheels, noise/heat suppression, 
water pump, radiator, suspension bushes, shock absorbers, 
induction/carburettors, cylinder head, pistons, SS-bolts&nuts etc. etc.

Subject: [Healeys] Fuel tank repair?

The issue is that the metal the original fuel tanks were made from - terne coated steel - became unavailable about 20 years ago. 
This was a tin - lead coated steel. 
Aluminium is the best modern solution. 
I designed my own tank - wider, higher, with a drop tank into the chassis box below, that the pickup sits in. I drew it up, and had it fabricated in aluminium by a brilliant guy at a race fabrication shop 18 years ago. 
Due to a divorce, I no longer have the drawings and measurements. 
But I can fit a 6 inch rim in the boot, and 80 litres of fuel, and have no surge related issues, even with 10 litres in it. 
Best
Chris

Message-ID: <CAPTa0B4g5h40z5cGp+NCuOdyKtA7kNyXcmayO7HfPOXqrvcdrg@mail.gmail.com>

In my thusfar relatively unsuccessful quest for a consistently hard brake
pedal I've decided to replace several components that do not owe me
anything--namely the brake hoses and the rear wheel cylinders which have
been on the car for at least ten years.

MOSS sells several different brake hoses--stainless steel by Goodridge,
braided stainless steel by Cobalt, and unbranded "stock" ones. As between
the two metal hoses does anyone have a recommendation for one or the other
based on their experience, either negative or positive? I have BT7 front
discs and stock BN1 rear drums.

I am finishing up the differential, suspension and brakes for my BN2.  I 
knew early in the restoration I had two different rear hubs.  I am not sure 
what hub belongs on which model or when they changed, but it is evident the 
two I have were from two different differentials.  I don't think that 
presents a problem.  I just installed the brake drums and extended splined 
hubs tonight.  The wheel studs on one side only stick out from the nuts by 
a few threads.  The other side the studs stick out 3/8" to 1/2".  Will this 
present any problems?  I am using Dayton 48 spoke wire wheels.

 Michael,???? Can't make a recommendation, but I just bought the Cobalt hoses at the end of June because they were on sale for $57.99 a set.? I ruled out the Goodridge set because Moss said they were used for racing.? I just figured the cobalt set was entirely adequate for the street.? The price difference between $80 and $58 kind of pushed my decision if I am going to admit anything.Mike MacLean

You know here is a difference between an old car and a classic car.
 
The classic car got points, a generator, lever shocks, a period gearbox, 
crossply tyres and no electric/electronic gadgets.
 
An old car allows all to drive it, a classic car only allows those to drive 
it propperly who are sensible enough to understand the classic car?s sole. 
So its easy to recognise the competent classic car enthusiast.

Tonight I caught the season premier of 'Goblin Works' on Motortrend 
Channel.? If you haven't seen it, this is an English version of the 
ubiquitous American show about car modders.? In contrast to the American 
shows, which feature an endless stream of muscle cars and trucks being 
slammed, chopped, airbagged, fitted with monstrous and hideous chrome 
wheels,? rubber-band tires, LS engines and garish paint jobs*, this show 
features some British cars and an occasional American or other 'foreign' 
car (and eschews the constant silly games and grab-assing common on the 
American shows).? Anyway, tonight they thoroughly and, I think 
tastefully, modded a 1275 Austin Mini.? They pulled the stock engine for 
a core for a 'built' engine and I'm thinking: "Here we go, EFI or at 
least a couple Webers" but, no, the built engine came with what appeared 
to be a pair of SU carbs!? They were pretty large, not quite HD8-size, 
and had longer 'necks' on the vacuum/piston chambers; anyone know what 
kind/size SUs these might have been?? I've seen photos of similar carbs 
on other Brit cars.? Oh, yeah, the Mini engine dyno'd at 115 BHP--stock 
was around 50--so who says SUs don't make power (I'm still pissed at Ant 
Anstead for calling them 'garbage')?

* I watch these shows for the 5 minutes of interesting and informative 
fabrication, welding and engine building in 55 minutes of grabassery, 
silly games and outright corniness.

Would they have been Stromberg 150CD or 175CD carburettors as used by 
most USA spec UK cars like Jensen-Healey, TR5/6, some older big 
Triumphs, Volvo's and Saab,s They do have a much wider body which is 
much lower and have a longer neck. The working principle is the same as 
the SU's.

They also could have been the Japanese Mikuni's which are similar.

The Italian Weber or DellOrto's would have been the better choice. These 
are/were widely used in most European cars to soup them up as they are 
easier to fine tune instead of messing about with endless reprofiling 
needles and adjusting springs in SU's and Strombergs plus you have two 
barrels in each carb so it is easier to provide each cylinder with its 
own barrel..

They could have been Mikunis.? I think the OEM carbs they took off were 
Strombergs (they look like flattened SUs).

Well!! Mine no longer has the points, generator, lever shocks, period gearbox not cross-ply tires, but it does have one or two electronic gadgets.  

 

Anybody want to buy this thing, before I try to drive it 3000 miles to Conclave and back? I see below that I am an incompetent enthusiast.

You know here is a difference between an old car and a classic car.

 

The classic car got points, a generator, lever shocks, a period gearbox, crossply tyres and no electric/electronic gadgets.

 

An old car allows all to drive it, a classic car only allows those to drive it propperly who are sensible enough to understand the classic car?s sole. So its easy to recognise the competent classic car enthusiast.

Mike I think originally 1 of those screws held the brake drum in place and
the other held the splined adaptor so they were different lengths.

One screw (CMZ0408) holds the axle to the hub.  Two longer screws 
(CMZ0414) hold the drum to the hub.  There is normally a hole in the 
brake drum that you can tighten the screw holding the axle.  The splined 
adapter is just held on by the five axle studs/nuts.

The screws are 1/4" long and 7/8" long, overall length.

The shorter screw is 1/2" long, not 1/4".  Sorry.

I sourced the missing bits from my oil filter on my Sprite project and will
reinstall tomorrow. Will hopefully fire it up this weekend. Still have work
to do cleaning the float bowls and replacing the fuel filter, and whatever
else turns up.

I was not able to successfully install the Goodridge hoses because I have stainless steel brake lines with a copper crush washer at the union of the hard line to the flexible Goodridge line. Copper crush washers should be installed wherever SS line flares connect to a union point. The screw mating between the Goodridge hose and the SS line flare only engaged a couple of threads and I did not trust the integrity of the union. I emailed or sent a letter to Goodridge about this issue and never received a response. I have rubber hoses on my ?62 BT7 and the brakes work as good as they can.

 

BTW, I don?t think it is possible to obtain a firm peddle as one would expect with a today?s cars or even other non-British cars of the same vintage.

Subject: [Healeys] Brake hoses

 

In my thusfar relatively unsuccessful quest for a consistently hard brake pedal I've decided to replace several components that do not owe me anything--namely the brake hoses and the rear wheel cylinders which have been on the car for at least ten years.

MOSS sells several different brake hoses--stainless steel by Goodridge, braided stainless steel by Cobalt, and unbranded "stock" ones As between the two metal hoses does anyone have a recommendation for one or the other based on their experience, either negative or positive? I have BT7 front discs and stock BN1 rear drums.

It looks like Marie Flagiello's car. It's been in her family for many many years, and was raced in period by her grandfather. 
It has many period racing modifications, and Marie restored it herself. A very, very talented lady. 
She's definitely one of us.

Subject: [Healeys] BJ8 Carb Tuning
Message-ID: <26DE2D32-6E7D-4D02-8DA4-C52B3EC3ABE9@gmail.com>

I am tuning my carbs after discovering one of the throttle stop screws fell out (don?t know how or when but it was gone). I have installed a new screw and spring. The ?system? I?m referring to is the two screw assembly on the left inner side of the carb closest to the linkage.  The ?screw? is the larger of the two. 

When I tighten the screw all the way down, the shoe at the bottom of the carb can be pulled up slightly. When I tighten the same screw on the other carb, the shoe does not lift. It would seem logical that both would react the same way. 

My questions are 1. Should they both be able to lift, should they both not lift or is it correct that the front carb does not lift but the back one (with new parts) does and 2. Once the first question is answered and I reassemble everything, how far should they be screwed out from the stop to start effectively tuning the car?  

Once again, thanks for your help!

Sounds like the carbs may not be properly balanced by following the 
correct procedure. I saw this problem on the TR6 of a friend of mine 
which had Strombergs (similar to SU's). After checking with the WSM it 
was clear that his mecanic did not know what he was doing. It was easily 
rectified but it took a while before I recognised the problem.

In cleaning up for our upcoming move, I came across a group of John Player & Sons cards. They include old English cars, vintage aircraft, replicas of very early baseball cards, English dogs, and a few odds & ends cards. They are in excellent condition and free (shipped) to the first response. Thanks. Cheers,Doug

They are electrical plates for the back-up cameras for the Bedford panel vans. Although tested in the early 1950?s, they were never put into production due to the amount of failures in testing and the vans crashing in stationary objects as a result ...........LOL!

Listers 
I would like to leave this up for a while as some of the answers are ?very interesting!?
Several folks who have been ?around a while?, those my wife calls ?old futts? got it right.  Of course, Doug , the guy that sold me the parts knew exactly what they were, including the Lucas part number.
They are the bulb holder for Lucas SFT76 and SLR76 spot and fog lamps (might fit other applications).  Something that few of our cars have and fewer still, owners that have dismantled them. 
Resume and enjoy your weekend activities.

Michael,
Could your piece be a well nut for the sidescreen on the early 100, the one with the flap on it, although I don?t think so as there is no lip on the bottom of the nut that I can see.

Perry,

Those and other parts for the driving and fog lights can be bought new.? 
The reproduction lights are similar enough that the parts are 
interchangeable.? Some years ago I rebuilt some used original ones and 
one of the Moss catalogs at the time listed part numbers for everything 
that I needed.? So if anyone needs parts for these lamps, give them a 
call.? It could be that other vendors also can sell the separate parts.

Charlie

If it is only to centre the steering shaft there is no need to fit the 
steering wheel fully home. Before fitting the steering wheel apply some 
anti seize compound like Cupaslip on the splines.

Check for damage of the splines (shaft and wheel). Even if the steering 
wheel is fully seated it should not be too difficult to remove the 
wheel. Using a steering wheel puller is good practice and makes it an 
easy job.

As I assemble the steering for my BN2, in order to center the steering
wheel movement I have to temporarily install my Mike Lempert steering
wheel.  It's the only steering wheel I have.  Those of you that have a
Lempert wheel, can you tell me if you had difficulty slipping the wheel on
the steering shaft splines?  I can kind of get it started on the splines,
but if it needs to be "encouraged" to fully seat the wheel I may have a
heck of a time getting it back off.

Sorry Mike I have no experience with a non adjustable Lampert wheel. Did
the wheel come with the hub and female tapered spline?  Normally such
wheels drop onto the spline easily so your caution is probably very wise.


     Is there any guidance on fitting the center rod?  I only have the stub
axles for reference.  Should I wait to tighten the ball joints of the
center rod until alignment?  All new parts for the steering, so there is
some adjustment included for sure.  Just don't want to have to take it
apart again to get it right.

Shouldn't be any problem installing the center rod as its length is easily
adjusted after installation. If you don't fully tighten the castellated
nuts on the ror ends they are easy to release from the taper with a light
tap on the end of the thread after fitting a plain nut to protect the
thread.
If you don't fully tighten the castellated nuts do hang a reminder tag on
them to ensure the they aren't forgotten.

I installed a Lempert wheel several years ago.? I recall I had to 
persuade the hub to go on and off the splines with a plastic-faced 
hammer; if you're careful you won't harm anything (grease the splines on 
the shaft and wheel).

Unless he's started making his own, Michael gets his hubs from Moto 
Lita, but machines them to fit Healeys.? The splines on the hub are 
shorter by 1/16" or so, and Michael seemed unaware of that when I 
informed him--maybe he's done something about it by now--but I think 
there is still plenty of meat on them.? I haven't had any issues since 
installation.

Subject: [Healeys] Battery Cable Routing for BT7
Message-ID: <18F66BDDF7074D6DBBC86AA72A1FAC31@AllInOne>

Hello,
 
When I purchased my barn find Healey the battery cable from the boot to
under the chassis was missing. I need some help with routing between the
boot bulkhead and the bulkhead under the rear seats. I have seen pictures
online of the cable above the axle and below the axle, which one is correct?
Above the axle seems to make the most sense. Also there are two 3/4" holes
in the boot bulkhead. I assume the cable goes through the upper hole. What
is the other hole used for?
 
I have loosely laid the cable in place in the attached picture. As always
any help from this forum is appreciated.

Is that a replacement panel behind the axle?
I ask because I believe that there should be 3 holes for the grommet
retaining plate screws in addition to the large one that the cable passes
through.
The same grommet with retaining plate arrangement is used where the -ve
cable passes through the battery housing panel.

Harold and Michael,
That grommet with retaining plates was not on my BT7 - 4422. I added it because it makes good sense. But it was not original to my car. I did not have the three holes for mounting screws.

Yes Lin, you are correct  ... I  see that the grommet with the retaining
plate started at (C) 15862 so it was well into the Mk II.

Chassis number is 13100. It didn't come with the grommet with the 3 holes
but I was thinking it would be a good idea to add it.

The same grommet with retaining plate arrangement is used where the -ve
cable passes through the battery housing panel.

I was going to take it with me, but we just have too much stuff. A rebuilt Smiths X 20933/222 oil temp gauge calibrated in Deg Celsius. I believe it is the equivalent of the 100S gauge in Deg F as 110 C is 230 F. It has a mounting bracket and brass knurled nut. If interested, please contact off the list. Thanks. Cheers,Doug

The sale prices shown include the buyers commission (10-12%).

The sellers will get about 20-24% less than the reported sale price. Remember the sellers commission (10-12%) comes off the hammered price, not reported sale price. 

Who really won here?

Regardless, not good for Healeys.

At least they could have replaced the broken exhaust mounts prior to the photo shoot if they wanted top dollar for the car.

I saw the BN4 and Phase 1 BJ8.  Both were very nice.  But with 600 cars to move during 3 days, they don?t get much time or attention.  I think a mere 3-4 min per car was what we were seeing during Thursday morning auction.  I could have bought a 1972 Pinto for $6000!    Not a lot of bidders when we were there.  The row of unsold cars out on the fairway was long also.  An original Triumph TR3 with bad paint and interior said it bid up to $27500 and remained unsold.  I would have thought the car was worth $15000 at best.  It is worth what someone will bid!

I was at Mecum during the BJ8 auction.  Although they move the cars through
quickly, they seem to have a pretty good read on when the bids are done and
aren't going anywhere.  The BJ8 hit $35k and just hit a brick wall.  There
was a whole string of different types of cars around the BJ8 and hardly
anything was selling.

Message-ID: <CAA-dtXYQT=LpXt+vpyK9ArG-6xgs7TG5iAfmTE+B6zVUkiO-fg@mail.gmail.com>

Hello Again,

Finally got oil pressure in the rebuilt OD.  With the car in 4th it shows
about 500 psi on a gauge.
However, I noticed when reattaching the drive shaft that with the trans in
neutral the output won't rotate in the reverse direction.  It rotates
easily by hand in the forward direction.  This is true before and after the
pressure has been released.  Before getting pressure in the OD it rotated
by hand in both directions.  I haven't tried to engage the OD.   It's a
hard mechanical stop.  I'm afraid the one-directional clutch be engaged and
I don't want to break anything.

I've been a long time gone from this fine place.  Life's taken a lot of
twists and turns, but it's good to be getting back to having to come here
for help.

Thanks and Cheers
Mike Tobin

Hi Mike,
I recently experienced exactly the same problem with newly rebuilt a BT7
side shift gearbox and overdrive unit when turning it backwards before
adding oil.
Like you I suspected the Sprague clutch but after considerable
investigation the cause turned out to be the new 2nd gear syncro ring
which, when the box was turned backwards, was winding itself tightly onto
the cone of 2nd gear.
This is something I've never experienced before but concluded that it was
unlikely to present a problem after the box has be run with new oil.
This may not be the cause in your case but certainly it is something worth
considering.

..without actually seeing and feeling what is going on... my WAG is that 
the clutch thrust ring is hanging up on the spring posts.. Where the 
springs replaced with new. Are they in the correct positions? Will the 
oft used wack the brake ring with a hammer release the condition?

Nah. 
Just tap the steel ring in the overdrive with your knock off hammer to release the springs. 
Works every time. For me anyway. 
The springs release the overdrive, and sometimes, they get just get stuck. 
It's a mystery of the world. 
But a few taps on that steel plate seems to realign the planets. And release those pesky springs!
Allegedly. 
Worked for me. 3 times in the past 35 years. Mostly when I'd driven the car hard. 
But it seems to fix the issue, when you can't select reverse. 
And it's so much easier on the bench, than on your back, lying under the car! 
Best 
Chris.

There is a very very small bleed hole in the operating rod abount 1? below the ball. When the overdrive is turned off the pressure bleeds off there. If it is blocked it will be very slow to come out of overdrive. 

Remove the plug, spring, plunger and operating rod. Then try blowing out the the bleed below the check ball.

The other thing that can cause it is if the adjustment of the solenoid is moving the operating rod to far it will stick in overdrive. Then with a thump on the rear housing it will come out of overdrive.

Hit the OD with a hammer once and the problem went away.
Ran up the pressure again and the problem was back.  This time it took a
number of pretty good whacks to get it unstuck.
Pressurized it a third time and now it won't unstick after a lot of good
whacks.  I'm reluctant to hit it any harder.
Unless there are any other ideas, I guess the damn thing comes out and
apart again.
Cheers,
Mike

operate the lever on the right side of the overdrive and you will release the pressure in the system

Hit the OD with a hammer once and the problem went away. 
Ran up the pressure again and the problem was back.  This time it took a number of pretty good whacks to get it unstuck.
Pressurized it a third time and now it won't unstick after a lot of good whacks.  I'm reluctant to hit it any harder.
Unless there are any other ideas, I guess the damn thing comes out and apart again.
Cheers,
Mike

  Just tap the steel ring in the overdrive with your knock off hammer to release the springs. 
  Works every time. For me anyway. 
  The springs release the overdrive, and sometimes, they get just get stuck. 
  It's a mystery of the world. 
  But a few taps on that steel plate seems to realign the planets. And release those pesky springs!
  Allegedly. 
  Worked for me. 3 times in the past 35 years. Mostly when I'd driven the car hard. 
  But it seems to fix the issue, when you can't select reverse. 
  And it's so much easier on the bench, than on your back, lying under the car!

    Hi Mike, 
    I recently experienced exactly the same problem with newly rebuilt a BT7 side shift gearbox and overdrive unit when turning it backwards before adding oil.
    Like you I suspected the Sprague clutch but after considerable investigation the cause turned out to be the new 2nd gear syncro ring which, when the box was turned backwards, was winding itself tightly onto the cone of 2nd gear. 
    This is something I've never experienced before but concluded that it was unlikely to present a problem after the box has be run with new oil.
    This may not be the cause in your case but certainly it is something worth considering.

Does anyone on the list know anything about the SCS (Specific Cruise
Systems) cruise control unit in the picture?

 

I have the unit, know it worked before being removed from another vehicle,
but don't have the manual.  The manufacturer is out of business. The only
sticker on it reads "SN 671640".

 

If anyone has the manual, that would be great!!

I am trying to help a friend who is trying to determine the source of a vibration in his recently professionally restored 100 BN2.The car was very recently restored by a well respected company that is know for their concours quality restorations. I do not believe there are any non-original modifications involved in this problem.?With the engine running, the transmission in neutral & the clutch engaged there is a noticeable vibration. When the clutch is depressed (disengaged) the vibration disappears. ?I have not been able to actually experience this in person because the car is out of town.What are your thoughts on the possible causes/explanations for this vibration?
Thanks,Gary Hodson?

I'm helping a guy bring back a 100 BN1 to original. He had a mustang front frame welded on before he came to his senses. Not only that, they had scrapped all of the front section of the car. He needs all of the front suspension parts and inside sheet metal. and cross pieces. Is anyone parting out a 100 where we could get a lot of these parts? He has the fenders, shroud and bonnett, but not much else. Thanks.

Message-ID: <1b11098c-957c-ad6d-5e95-490838f5b350@earthlink.net>

Listers,

The 100-6/3000 factory workshop manual I have doesn't give the voltage 
limits for the voltage regulator in the RB106/2 control box.  It does 
give the limits for the later RB340.  The 100 workshop manual does have 
the settings for the RB106/2.

Ambient Temperature	RB106/2		RB340
10 degC (50 degF)	16.1 to 16.7vdc	14.9 to 15.5 vdc
20 degC (68 degF)	15.8 to 16.4	14.7 to 15.3
30 degC (86 degF)	15.6 to 16.2	14.5 to 15.1
40 degC (104 degF)	15.3 to 15.9	143.3 to 14.9

The Lucas Workshop instructions for the RB106/2 state that the range is 
16.0 to 16.5 volts.

Why the large difference between the two control boxes?  Is the 16.0 to 
16.5 vdc still appropriate today?  Currently using a flooded cell 
battery.  Have used an Optima AGM in the past.

Cheers,

Hello Listers
Well after many years delay I am looking to throw some $ at my exhaust system.? It was on the car when I bought it in 1973.? The resonator is clearly ANSA so I assume the whole system is.? The resonator now has a couple large holes (even though some welding on it was done some years ago).
It appears like I will need to spend $1000 or so on a complete system but for convenience and cost would prefer to just replace the holy resonator, even with a two piece factory style.? I know ANSA has not been made in quite a while.? Can anyone confirm that the OD of the backpipe is 1.75 inches?? What is the pipe size requirement of the current twin resonators such as sold by the usual suppliers?
Thanks for any input as to optionsKeith

OK folks, I know the setting for valve clearances on a 100 is 0.012, but when a hotter cam gets put in to a 100 with larger carbs and different pistons, does it stay 0.012? I am going to check all of the clearances on the set up as it sits now before I do any adjusting of anything, but thought I would run this by everyone before I touch or move anything. Thanks in advance.
???And just as an update, I got the OA6 Rich needles in now, I brought both jets up in the carbs evenly and then let them back down 12 flats each, so I've now got a base line to work with. I am re-installing the alternator conversion that was Mickey Moused into position with the Moss/AH Spares kit, which is quite nice nice and then I also just got a Snap On timing light so I can set the advance accurately. It's coming along, slowly, but that's okay, I'm in no big hurry, I just want it right as I plan on driving the wheels off of this car.
???Thanks again for any information you might pass along!

Steven,

Make sure the timing light and the plug wires you're using are 
compatible.  The snap on timing light I have doesn't work well with the 
solid copper core wires (bumblebee in my case). I swapped in a "modern" 
plug wire to do the timing. This was covered in the light's manual, so 
you might have a look at yours.

Cheers,

Bob Haskell

You really need to check with the cam grinder on the required/recommended valve clearance. For instance Kent Cams uses 0.024 on a hot cam when stock setting is 0.012.  Big difference.

OK folks, I know the setting for valve clearances on a 100 is 0.012, but when a hotter cam gets put in to a 100 with larger carbs and different pistons, does it stay 0.012? I am going to check all of the clearances on the set up as it sits now before I do any adjusting of anything, but thought I would run this by everyone before I touch or move anything.

Thanks Bob,

I am going to check all the clearances as they sit right now and not make any adjustments until I know what is there.

Then 0.015" is the 'safe' gap; that's what DWR calls for the DWR1 
'slightly better than stock' BJ8 cam.

Also check the cam timing.

The term "hot cam" is just a descriptive and when it comes to things such
as valve timing, lift and profiles specifics matter if you expect to
improve performance

As Perry suggested make contact with whoever made the cam or determine its
profile and have someone who knows what they are doing give you a
recommendation as to valve clearance.
Otherwise you are simply guessing.

With the ?hot cam? discussion, ?I have one here at the house that someone might be interested in.? It is an Isky ? grind for the Austin Healey 100 from way back.? Has Isky?s name and info engraved in the end of the shaft.? One lobe is ?damaged and would need a weld and regrind repair to actually use in a car or you could make your wife a new lamp for the living room.? ?. 
Let me know if there is any interest out there, otherwise it goes on the parts shelf for my boys, after I?m long gone, to ponder, ?Wonder why he kept this old thing??? 
In the mean time I?m thinking about what lamp shade might look good on a 35 pound chunk of steel.

A high lift cam means that the valves come off the seat earlier and land back on the seat later than standard. That limits the valve's dwell time on the seat, which is critical to heat transfer from the valve to the seat. Greater clearance is the compromise to extend valve life. Isky specifies 0.018" for my cam. If you know the source of the cam I would go back to them for the spec.

I have the OA6, OA7, and OA8 needles and have tried them all. I found that, at least at this altitude (5,000-6,000 feet), the standard OA7s give the best results.

OK folks, I know the setting for valve clearances on a 100 is 0.012, but when a hotter cam gets put in to a 100 with larger carbs and different pistons, does it stay 0.012? I am going to check all of the clearances on the set up as it sits now before I do any adjusting of anything, but thought I would run this by everyone before I touch or move anything. Thanks in advance.
   And just as an update, I got the OA6 Rich needles in now, I brought both jets up in the carbs evenly and then let them back down 12 flats each, so I've now got a base line to work with. I am re-installing the alternator conversion that was Mickey Moused into position with the Moss/AH Spares kit, which is quite nice nice and then I also just got a Snap On timing light so I can set the advance accurately. It's coming along, slowly, but that's okay, I'm in no big hurry, I just want it right as I plan on driving the wheels off of this car.

I had mine ground by Isky about 4 years ago and just got the car back on the road. I'm very happy with the performance and tractability of the engine.

Ed Iskedarian cut the cam on my car 45 years ago. He called it a hot street cam. I lost the info about it years ago.

I have the OA6, OA7, and OA8 needles and have tried them all. I found that, at least at this altitude (5,000-6,000 feet), the standard OA7s give the best results.

OK folks, I know the setting for valve clearances on a 100 is 0.012, but when a hotter cam gets put in to a 100 with larger carbs and different pistons, does it stay 0.012? I am going to check all of the clearances on the set up as it sits now before I do any adjusting of anything, but thought I would run this by everyone before I touch or move anything. Thanks in advance.
   And just as an update, I got the OA6 Rich needles in now, I brought both jets up in the carbs evenly and then let them back down 12 flats each, so I've now got a base line to work with. I am re-installing the alternator conversion that was Mickey Moused into position with the Moss/AH Spares kit, which is quite nice nice and then I also just got a Snap On timing light so I can set the advance accurately. It's coming along, slowly, but that's okay, I'm in no big hurry, I just want it right as I plan on driving the wheels off of this car.
   Thanks again for any information you might pass along!

Great information and I might get some more information later today from the previous owner that will shed some light on the subject. As of right now, yesterday I checked all the clearances and everyone of them was tight. Like I couldn't even get a 0.008 feeler gauge to slide in! Everyone! So I set them all to 0.015 which was the majority of the responses on this list. I can always go back and change, but as has been suggested, I'm just guessing now and I figure this is a good starting point.
???I am also using the OA6 needles right now, the rich ones. I have a set of OA7's, so that will be the first change if things don't work right. I have to make some wires for my new alternator this morning, so stay tuned and updates will follow.
???Again, thanks to everyone for their input, suggestions and wonderful help.?

Listers
If nothing else, that article helped me understand a new word that has been creeping into the TV shows (car stuff) and print info lately, BESPOKE is the word. 

One TV show used it over and over and by the rest of the dialog used, I had no idea what they were talking about. At first I thought they were referencing the 24 inch wheels they were using on the build. But they didn?t look anything like a set of spoked wire wheels from Dunlap. 

I read the referenced article which talked about bespoked projectiles, scratched my head and said to my lovely wife, ?What in the world does BESPOKE mean??  

With a slight smile on those lips, said, CUSTOM or Built for the buyer!!!

Oh, is the word custom to old school or outdated for the ?car guys and gals? today? Maybe for million dollar supercars.

Not that I?m not interested in learning new words, I mean knowing what the advertised heart medicine is talking about, an ACE or an R, may have some bearing on my future existence!  ?

Hope everyone is having a great day.  I have to spend some time in the garage to work on my brother in laws BESPOKED 100-Six.  Fitting a quick change rear axle to the beast.

I always thought "bespoke" was more in keeping with a visit to a Saville
Row tailor, not an automobile.  But either way, each is out of my league.

Are the results of these "high dollar" auctions applicable to our meager (by comparison) cars?? I dont know the answer to that but I sort of doubt it since we are only opperating in the five figure segment and mostly on the lower end of that.? When the auctions include cars of our ilk as a few recently posted have referenced then it gets my attention.

To some degree, the high-dollar auctions reflect the Healey market in
general.  I've taken on the duties of "Auction Reporter" for *Healey Marque
*and, as a result, am following the auctions way more than before.  The
big-time auctions need lots of product to move over the stand in a
three-day auction, so although the high-end cars get most of the publicity,
there are a lot of mid-range cars up for sale, too.  And the same factors
that affect the expensive stuff influences the Healey market as well.  Fear
of recession, aging of the core group of hobbyists, younger folks not
caring about the 50s-70s stuff, etc.  For example, while at Mecum Monterey
I saw this rather nice Phase 1 BJ8 bid up to $35,000 and stop dead:
https://www.mecum.com/lots/CA0819-380928/1964-austin-healey-3000-mkiii-bj8-convertible/
That's certainly way below what that car would've sold for a few years ago
and if you take the time to search "Austin-Healey" at all the Monterey
auction houses, you'll see similar no-sales across the board.  Obviously,
auctions don't tell the whole tale of Healey sales, but the price guides
and auction sale prices heavily influence what people expect to get or pay
in a private sale.

Just my take,

Rick Neville

When you look at the condition of the BJ8 that Rick talks about, at least on the photos, the exhaust system was almost dragging on the ground, some rubber seals was either riveted or screwed to the windshield posts, perhaps to make a better seal, the crude way the door seals were cutoff as well as those on the windshield posts, the trafficator signal arm facing downward, and the evidence, at least on photos of surface rust on the interior of the car on the bulkhead indicates to me a lack of proper preparation for a sale at the very least, at most a superficial restoration just to make it good enough for a sale and that is no longer good enough to obtain even mid-range prices. Yet the auction house described it as restored to original condition, it is obvious that they did not do their homework to start with. Yet, most of these places charge 10-12 % both to the seller and buyer, a ridiculous amount given the time and exposure.
 I personally feel that a few of these auction houses will either merge or disappear in the next while as they are, at least with cars under $200,000.00, being outshined by places like Bring-a-Trailer and a few other popping up on the internet.
Perhaps fortunately, the cars that used to be parts car that a number of places advertised as ?projects? will return to be parts cars, not necessarily a bad thing either.
Totally agree with Rick that the price guide is heavily influenced, perhaps too much so, by the sales at auctions.

Subject: Re: [Healeys] [OT] Collector Car 'Hobby'

To some degree, the high-dollar auctions reflect the Healey market in general.  I've taken on the duties of "Auction Reporter" for Healey Marque and, as a result, am following the auctions way more than before.  The big-time auctions need lots of product to move over the stand in a three-day auction, so although the high-end cars get most of the publicity, there are a lot of mid-range cars up for sale, too.  And the same factors that affect the expensive stuff influences the Healey market as well.  Fear of recession, aging of the core group of hobbyists, younger folks not caring about the 50s-70s stuff, etc.  For example, while at Mecum Monterey I saw this rather nice Phase 1 BJ8 bid up to $35,000 and stop dead:   https://www.mecum.com/lots/CA0819-380928/1964-austin-healey-3000-mkiii-bj8-convertible/<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mecum.com%2Flots%2FCA0819-380928%2F1964-austin-healey-3000-mkiii-bj8-convertible%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7C6e4cc55c93b04e6fa20c08d728adff9d%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637022600089036992&sdata=wxJu2nSV%2BrbAzBJ4k2hPp7M04i4f47luSukh90llyLk%3D&reserved=0>  That's certainly way below what that car would've sold for a few years ago and if you take the time to search "Austin-Healey" at all the Monterey auction houses, you'll see similar no-sales across the board.  Obviously, auctions don't tell the whole tale of Healey sales, but the price guides and auction sale prices heavily influence what people expect to get or pay in a private sale.

Just my take,

Rick Neville

Are the results of these "high dollar" auctions applicable to our meager (by comparison) cars?  I dont know the answer to that but I sort of doubt it since we are only opperating in the five figure segment and mostly on the lower end of that.  When the auctions include cars of our ilk as a few recently posted have referenced then it gets my attention.

Just wondering

I always thought "bespoke" was more in keeping with a visit to a Saville Row tailor, not an automobile.  But either way, each is out of my league.  Here's another take on the Monterey auctions: https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidun.../#7aba6b1b692b<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.forbes.com%2Fsites%2Fdavidundercoffler%2F2019%2F08%2F21%2Fclassic-car-market-hits-a-pothole-at-2019-monterey-car-week%2F%237aba6b1b692b&data=02%7C01%7C%7C6e4cc55c93b04e6fa20c08d728adff9d%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637022600089046997&sdata=c4P6uEYtlN%2Fj2FiaYUMLKHrRKtUYN0bB%2BTCj34SNXPA%3D&reserved=0>  Looks like a hard rain is goin' to fall.

If nothing else, that article helped me understand a new word that has been creeping into the TV shows (car stuff) and print info lately, BESPOKE is the word.

One TV show used it over and over and by the rest of the dialog used, I had no idea what they were talking about. At first I thought they were referencing the 24 inch wheels they were using on the build. But they didn?t look anything like a set of spoked wire wheels from Dunlap.

I read the referenced article which talked about bespoked projectiles, scratched my head and said to my lovely wife, ?What in the world does BESPOKE mean??

With a slight smile on those lips, said, CUSTOM or Built for the buyer!!!

Oh, is the word custom to old school or outdated for the ?car guys and gals? today? Maybe for million dollar supercars.

Not that I?m not interested in learning new words, I mean knowing what the advertised heart medicine is talking about, an ACE or an R, may have some bearing on my future existence!  ?

Hope everyone is having a great day.  I have to spend some time in the garage to work on my brother in laws BESPOKED 100-Six.  Fitting a quick change rear axle to the beast.

I have come across an Austin Healey Club Memorial Trophy Event, Silverstone Circuit plaque, commemorating Donald Healey's 100th birthday. It has been in a drawer for ears and is NOS in the original envelope. I believe it is brass, and still has the protective film on the front and adhesive cover on the back. If there is an interest, please contact m off the list. Thanks. Cheers,Doug

Message-ID: <000001d55b8a$b5a68020$20f38060$@cox.net>

Anybody know what the resistance for the field coils in the Lucas DB10 field
coil is supposed to be?

 

I have one side at 3.2 Ohms and the other at 32 Ohms - both seem pretty
light?

Message-ID: <0688DFAA3D9D40E2A8D9DB3FDBE2F639@HomePC>

Notes that seemed so adequate a dozen years ago, when the car was disassembled, are now no help!  My note tag on these pieces says:
?brace ? LF inner wheel well to front shroud support ? twist toward outside ? flange points up ? bolt head inside? (plus drawing of location of washers/lock washers).  The other twisted piece, labeled ?right side? is much shorter than the left side one, and the bend at the end is not as sharp (why?)

However, I can?t find anything in my scores of photos that shows where these pieces were bolted on, and I think we really need these in place to get the fender/shroud line correct.  Can the list help?

Thanks in advance,

AHA!  Radiator support, not shroud support (clearly brain fade even back then).  MANY thanks to David Nock for the photos (I was obviously looking in the wrong area in my photos).
Gratefully,

No need to, the head has to come of anyway.

Oh yeah, it's going to be much fun! But the head will come off after Conclave and we'll see what it reveals. Could be worse.

Hi Men
Has anyone else ever changed their rear wheel cylinders from 3/4 inch to 7/8 inch?
I just did. Sick of the rear brakes doing nothing. Freeloaders!! 
Yes, no problem with seized wheel cylinders, no problem with the flexible hose - just bugger all wear on the rear linings. 
I'll let you know how it goes on my BJ8

Whatch out driving in the rain as the rear brakes will lock the rear 
wheels much quicker than with the smaller pistons.Rear brakes are only 
providing a small portion of the total brake force.

Have to agree with Kees on this one.
We have a brake bias control on AHX12 and I can certainly attest to the
fact that when the conditions change to "wet" removing a lot of rear
braking is absolutely essential to prevent the car from swapping ends.
As most road cars don't have adjustable brake bias I would be very careful
in trying to increase the rear braking.
When braking into a corner the last thing you want is the rear end coming
around, particularly in the wet.

Interesting topic.
I just had my rear drums turned, and I was surprised at how little wear there was on the shoes.
I guess the engineers at BMC put in the smaller cylinders as a kind of default brake bias control.

As in many cars of the period and even later. Same on my 1974 
Jensen-Healey. I fitted even smaller cylinders at the rear and increased 
braking force by at least 25% by fitting 4-piston callipers and grooved 
discs.

No I have not, but when I return from Conclave, I am going to take the head off and see what that reveals. I don't see a huge upside to doing a leak down test as the work is going to have to be done one way or the other. Plus, I would rather be 100% sure rather than continuing with the guessing game. I'm just glad this happened in my garage rather than on the road. Not good, but it could be oh so much worse!

Steve, are you planning on driving the Healey to Deadwood.  If so I would not recommend to do that with a low compression. If it is a burnt valve then you will greatly increase the chances of cracking the head. If it is rings then you will use a lot of oil.

I would recommend a leak test right away. Then you can determine if the low compression is a valve problem or a ring problem.

If it is a burnt valve it is not wise to travel any long distance as you 
may damage the valve seat considerably if it has non hardened seat 
fitted and, as David Nock says a cracked head may be the result. It is 
unlikely to be rings/bore as the drop in compression is to big.

What also could be checked easily is if the crank case ventilation blows 
considerably , if so it could be a hole in the piston but than again the 
compression would probably be lower than 25psi and a holed piston is not 
something that happens often.

Burnt valves on UK cars are a regular occurrence. I have had them on the 
Spitfire, Land Rover and on the Jensen-Healey, never on the Italian, 
French, USA, German, Japanese or Korean cars I had/have but may be I was 
lucky there.

If there are engine problems that you are trying to diagnose you need to get as much info as you can before pulling apart. ALWAYS do a compression test and LEAK test prior to pulling the cylinder head.

If not and you assume the the problem is valves, So you pull the head and do a valve job. Then re install the head now you have a burning oil issue due to the bad rings.

I have three HD6s in my car. When I bought them from a place that renovated
Jag Mk IIs I didn't notice that 2 of the carbs have 2 shoulders on top of
the dashpot whilst the third has only one.

They work perfectly well in concert and I have no worries about function.
However, it's begun to irritate me and I've been looking for one on eBay.

So, tell me...which is the most common version..two shoulders or one? 

Thanks,

Just so everyone knows, I do NOT plan on driving my 100 to Conclave. I am going to Conclave because I don't want to miss the opportunity and besides, Healey folks don't care if you drive your Healey or not, they just care that you show up and party with them. When I return I will deal with my car.

If there are engine problems that you are trying to diagnose you need to get as much info as you can before pulling apart. ALWAYS do a compression test and LEAK test prior to pulling the cylinder head.

If not and you assume the the problem is valves, So you pull the head and do a valve job. Then re install the head now you have a burning oil issue due to the bad rings.

Personally, I would still like to know if the rings Vs. the valves are a part of the problem before pulling the head.

Most likely cause a burned exaust valve on cylinder 2.? 150-155psi on the other cylinders is neigh perfect. Head of job. Have fune.

As an inquiring novice, how would a leak down test determine whether 
it's valves or rings. Seems like you lose pressure in either case.

Same with the car. You loose traction, both sideways and length wise. On 
a bike you can correct by counter steering with is very direct and by 
leaning over, in a car you cannot as the wheels react rather indirect on 
the steering wheel and if you deviate only slightly from the straight 
ahead direction the rear will pass the front. As the brake forces on the 
front wheels (as on the rear wheels) will never be 100% equal because of 
slight differences in the brakes L/R and on the road surface you will 
not be able to hold the straight ahead direction and thus............ A 
very good driver may be able to counteract this but the average driver 
will not, certainly not on a wet road.

Hi, Here are a couple of pics. I?m after the two shouldered version. Sadly, there are no (visible) numbers stamped on or within it and the detachable tabs above the three float chambers rather confusingly have the same numbers.

I have three HD6s in my car. When I bought them from a place that renovated Jag Mk IIs I didn?t notice that 2 of the carbs have 2 shoulders on top of the dashpot whilst the third has only one.

They work perfectly well in concert and I have no worries about function. However, it?s begun to irritate me and I?ve been looking for one on eBay.

So, tell me?..which is the most common version?.two shoulders or one? 

Thanks,

Simon

Seriously, 
So all you men who have fitted rear disc brakes to your Healey, have only ever done this in order to "reduce" your rear braking effort?
To make your rear brakes "less efficient" than they already are?
And you've fitted Discs to "increase" your unsprung weight, and upset the balance of your car?
Seriously?
Sincerely, this group used to share ideas. 
Now, instead of people saying "nah, tried that, but I locked rear wheels" it's a bunch of hypothetical Wikipedia answers. 
So I will ask again. 
Has anyone else changed their rear wheel cylinders on a 3000 from 3/4 inch to 7/8 inch?
If yes - I'd love to hear your feedback. 
If you've fitted disk brakes on your Jensen Healey, or what ever - I'm not interested in your comments. Im not interested in the theory - I'm interested in the practice and real results from on the road. 
Too much bullshit internet "searching" is infiltrating this list. I've always only answered when I've actually done something. 
Armchair experts who google answers and Have now experience in the question I've asked need to pull their head in - that's you Kees. 
>> Has anyone else ever changed their rear wheel cylinders from 3/4 inch to 7/8 inch?
If you have? I'd love to hear from you. 
If you haven't, well, I don't really care!
Yes. I'm pissed off. 
People who have the answer - from experience- don't answer when 4 others respond. 
I'm just pissed off 
A lot going on.

Simon
The photos really helped me understand your search issue. First I do not have the parts you are looking for. 
 The ?shoulder? equals a ?air vent? in the suction chamber.  Suggest you contact Burlen in UK or another SU supplier to get the real reason that some SU?s have 1 vent, some two and a bunch have no externally visible vent. Suspect that the no external vent model uses a vented cap instead.

I would check the simple things first, I had a car with similar

the valve slightly off its seat.? It they look good on the bad cylinder

Ok. At the risk of getting flamed by more armchair warriors, I?ll have a pop at a reply.

?BlueHealey? is my carefully modified and upgraded 100/6. When first built and restored it had the original drum brakes and 7/8? rear wheel cylinders. All very standard.  After a few years I decided to upgrade to discs at the front. This was driven by the need for more effective bite and control of the brakes in modern traffic conditions. The drums just didn?t inspire confidence.
Jeremy Welch (DenisWelch Motorsport) can supply a disc brake kit with Calipers the same size as BJ8 (M16), but a bolt pattern that fits the adaptor for the early uprights.  It all bolts up a treat. The bonus is that the original 3/4? Master Cylinder works well with the big Calipers.  No servo needed and pedal travel is only slightly longer then previously.
The armchair surfer in me worried that the pedal travel might be too great and that 7/8? Master and Servo might be a phase two requirement. It wasn?t.

Then came the road test. Brakes felt good despite being new and I set off to put some heat cycles into the pads with steadily harder stops being applied.  You guessed it - I could lock the rears much sooner than I was happy with.  Good solid, hard braking on dry roads appeared to lighten the rear end and one or other of the rears would chirrup and skid.
I reduced the rear cylinders to 3/4? and the problem was gone.  By the time I got the rears to smoke the fronts were letting go too.

It is a good set up, certainly as good as my previous BJ8 but the servo isn?t needed.

I don't think you can just change the vacuum dome, however.? Have been 
told the dome and piston are a finely machined matched set.

Here is a quote from Jim Taylor (a well respected SU mechanic):"An illustration in the AH shop manual shows the float level with a 5/16" bar under the curved portion of the float lever. This setting is appropriate only for the early HS-4 tri-carb series with brass floats. All H & HD series use a 7/16" diameter test bar. The HS series carbs with plastic floats specify 1/8" to 3/16" between the float and the lid in the inverted position."
Somewhere I have seen a handy diagram illustrating these different configurations & specifications, but of course, I could not find it today. If someone has a copy of this diagram, please post it.

Before I get to my question, let me say that I have 3/4" slave cylinders for my rear drum brakes.? Those of you that have converted to disc brakes on your four cylinder cars, did you use backing plates?? I have a set, but am having a hard time figuring out how they fit to the assembly.? In addition the rubber seal that installs on the inner cut out is very difficult to fit so it stays in place.? Are these backing plates absolutely necessary?Mike MacLeanSent from my Samsung Galaxy , an AT&T LTE smartphone

If you increase the diameter of your rear cylinders, you increase the amount of fluid required to move the shoes the same distance, so your master cylinder must travel further, more pedal travel, and would probably make the problem worse.  Increase the size of your master cylinder and reduce pedal travel and probably the pressure in the system given the same pedal force application.  I like minimal pedal travel, and like feeling like pressing against the wall to get the vehicle to stop.

Sincerely

Henry Morrison

Subject: Re: [Healeys] Rear wheel cylinders on a BJ8

Seriously,
So all you men who have fitted rear disc brakes to your Healey, have only ever done this in order to "reduce" your rear braking effort?
To make your rear brakes "less efficient" than they already are?
And you've fitted Discs to "increase" your unsprung weight, and upset the balance of your car?
Seriously?
Sincerely, this group used to share ideas.
Now, instead of people saying "nah, tried that, but I locked rear wheels" it's a bunch of hypothetical Wikipedia answers.
So I will ask again.
Has anyone else changed their rear wheel cylinders on a 3000 from 3/4 inch to 7/8 inch?
If yes - I'd love to hear your feedback.
If you've fitted disk brakes on your Jensen Healey, or what ever - I'm not interested in your comments. Im not interested in the theory - I'm interested in the practice and real results from on the road.
Too much bullshit internet "searching" is infiltrating this list. I've always only answered when I've actually done something.
Armchair experts who google answers and Have now experience in the question I've asked need to pull their head in - that's you Kees.
Has anyone else ever changed their rear wheel cylinders from 3/4 inch to 7/8 inch?
If you have? I'd love to hear from you.
If you haven't, well, I don't really care!
Yes. I'm pissed off.
People who have the answer - from experience- don't answer when 4 others respond.
I'm just pissed off
A lot going on.

Have to agree with Kees on this one.
We have a brake bias control on AHX12 and I can certainly attest to the fact that when the conditions change to "wet" removing a lot of rear braking is absolutely essential to prevent the car from swapping ends.
As most road cars don't have adjustable brake bias I would be very careful in trying to increase the rear braking.
When braking into a corner the last thing you want is the rear end coming around, particularly in the wet.

Replacing the hydraulic system on the 65 Sprite and found 7/8th cyl on back
brakes. 3/4 is required for disk brake cars. Have replaced with 3/4" units.
Did not drive before, so no i fo on how changing will influence stopping,
but it should now be correct. Plus front disc where cut thin from spec. So
new turned drums and discs and calipers should improve everything. I need
to pull the fuel pump and see if it just needs adjusting. Nearly 100
degrees yesterdy and today, so not working on the car. Long weekend ahead.
Hoping to gave it ready for the car sale area at next weekend's abfm
Portland.

So, tell me?..which is the most common version?.two shoulders or one?

IL, IA, and SD to arrive in Rapid City on Thursday to assemble the
post-Conclave tour group, then to Deadwood on Friday.

 

The post-Conclave tour will leave after Conclave on Wednesday 11 September
to explore ND (Lewis & Clark Interpretive Center in Washburn/Fort Mandan),
MN (Grand Rapids for lunch -- remember Conclave 2001?, dinner cruise on Lake
Superior at Duluth), WI (Oshkosh Experimental Aircraft Association museum),
high-speed ferry across Lake Michigan to MI, IN (Notre Dame campus,
Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg museum), arrive in Dayton Wednesday 18 September.
Air Force museum at Wright-Patterson AFB in Dayton and Dayton Wire Wheel on
Thursday, then head for home.

 

All who are traveling to Deadwood:  have a great trip, and be safe!

make sure you do not have a bent pushrod that could be keeping the valve from closing.  happened on a friends healey that 
had just come back from rebuild and valves were not set.  worth a look.

Very elegant.  Maybe if you put a metal drip pan underneath it would find
more ready acceptance in the living room.

Message-ID: <90BE4F04EDAF401DB26F505DD84BD501@HomePC>

We have finally found someone with the expertise?and willingness?to tackle re-shaping the damaged nose of my BN1.  We now need a grille?or at least the surround?with the original contour so we can return my grille to the proper shape.  (The grille I have is as mis-shapen as the nose.)

I really don?t want to buy a new grille, partly because of the cost and partly because so many people have said they don?t fit well!  Is there anyone out there willing to sell me an un-bent used grille or surround that we could use for a pattern?  Or even just lend me one (with a suitable deposit to ensure its return)?

Well the lamp was in place for about 15 minutes. That?s the good news.  Bad news is that the first responders say it will take weeks for me to recover from my injuries. Got these funny dents in my bald head that resemble the lobes on a cam shaft. Was able to use the drip pan to catch most of the body fluids. So that part worked out well!
Have a fun day, I did.

Is it just "bolt on," adjust valves & go?  What's best place to order from?

I bought a Denis Welsh head. It is a simple bolt on but you are going to
add  their studs and nuts and a steel cylinder head gasket - at least that
is what I did. Go to the web site and read all that applies to cylinder
heads. You can buy a bare head or one that has been prepped for street or
competition. It is cheaper to buy from the UK than from the US resellers.
I only have 70 miles on my BN1 but so far so good.

Changed out my cracked 100 BN2 head for a Denis Welch standard aluminium head. Used their steel gasket. Just bolted it on and adjusted the tappets. However I had very recently rebuilt my H4 carbs and it wasn't running well , so I ended up retuning these as well. Apparently Denis Welch use 3000 valves in their 100 head which are slightly larger so I wonder if this also means that carbs have to be retuned. I'm still on standard needles and springs . Running very nicely now,? although tends to minor stuttering when cold which disappears completely when warm.

I envy your DW alloy head. I'm still running the cast iron boat anchor and hoping it will last a while longer. Oh well. that's what lottery tickets are for...

Seems like a logical solution (to an OCD problem) would be for you and Simon to agree to trade one double vent for one single vent, including the piston also of course...

I find this interesting, as I, too, have one of each.  It bothers the OCD part of me, but I?ve been able to live with it for the 19 years I?ve had the car.  I guess I can continue to live with it.

Hi, Here are a couple of pics. I?m after the two shouldered version. Sadly, there are no (visible) numbers stamped on or within it and the detachable tabs above the three float chambers rather confusingly have the same numbers.

So, tell me?..which is the most common version?.two shoulders or one?

Dave,

I've had some OCD problems myself, like the time I came begging you for a brass cheesehead screw to match the other 5 on my H6s.

I have three HD6s in my car. When I bought them from a place that renovated
Jag Mk IIs I didn't notice that 2 of the carbs have 2 shoulders on top of
the dashpot whilst the third has only one.

They work perfectly well in concert and I have no worries about function.
However, it's begun to irritate me and I've been looking for one on eBay.

So, tell me...which is the most common version..two shoulders or one? 

Thanks,

Simon
