Actually, I believe it is an MG color. BGR was not a color available for my 72 roadster, so I ordered the closest thing available for it - green mallard. The DBSM (dumb body shop man) got himself con

Yep. Your float valve in the rear carb is stuck open. Quick fix - tap on the carb with anything til the float valve breaks free and seals again. But best fix is to take the carb off, clean it out, r

I don't recommend drilling another hole somewhere. The early head used a different rocker pedistal. That's what required a different oil hole placement. Trade rocker assy's for an early model - then

If memory serves (yes, I'm that old) your generator is performing properly. Slight discharge at idle is normal. If it bothers you, increase the idle. It's just the nature of all generator systems.
