221. Re: Fuel Consumption (score: 1)

I would hazard a guess that good "average" fuel consumption for a B is around 22 mpg. That is...the most I've gotten is 26.5 and the worst is about 19. I would say a good goal for max economy is 23-2

I've found my conversion application if anyone wants it. It's 538KB in size, freeware. Very handy tool for these things. Unfortunately, the only thing it doesn't convert is mpg to lpk (or whatever yo

I didn't get a reply from you yet. If you've got the correct brake line, I'll take it! I called Pep Boys today and they said they "should" have both metric and Standard thread bubble flare lines, bu

Maybe I've been hanging around paid/contracted engineers too long and gave a conservative estimate, but I think 24 mpg is a good "average" estimate over all driving situations - less than that indica

I too have never done a rebuild but want to someday. The best advice I can give you is to buy "How To Powertune MGB 4-cylinder Engines" by Peter Burgess. It's only $20 or so and will answer a LOT of

The Loctite teflon thread sealant seems to have done the trick on the brake line fittings! For the first time, the B failed to start. It's only 25 degrees outside, so rather than burn the starter out
