The "one shot" is a metal button on the fire wall about an inch in
diameter, usually just above and to the right of the gearbox casing so
you can get your foot on it reasonably. That should go through the fire
wall and connect to the engine (usually the oil pressure connection) and
via a tee piece to 2 tubes which connect to the top of the king pins.
The tubes look a lot like brake pipe. If you don't have one don't worry
about it just use plenty of grease on the nipple on the hub carriers. My
king pins work much better since I stopped using it. The GoMog (Canada)
web site has a reference taken from the Thames Valley MSCC site
John Worrall's "Original Morgan" has an illustration somewhere.

I may have raised this question earlier but don't recall having received
any
response. My '52 +4 ought to have the one-shot lubrication system to
oil
the front suspension. I can't find it and suspect that the previous
owner
may have removed it.
What does it look like? Where can I find a drawing (I can't find any
reference in Fred Sisson's book)?
