Supposedly you put a rod through the hole that's in the original adapter and lever it down until it's loose enough to spin off with your hands... Unfortunately on my TD the hole was perfectly positio

Moma in NM. They did almost all the instruments on my TD. Cheaper and faster turn around than Nisonger, (they did my speedo) and just as good. Can't find their number but maybe someone on the list, (

While putting the radio back in my 74 1/2' the dome light went off, so I figured I'd pulled a wire out and I'd just have to find it and stick it back in. Simple right? Well, the rubber connector dis

Yeah, I got it from Moss directly, and yes, I checked everything to make sure it was the ignition, and I have no idea why it failed. I turn the key the ignition light comes on and nothing happens. ~S

I've been through this a few times, and while all the parts are available for the re-build usually just the diodes in the reg is what's wrong. If you don't have the equipment to do a load test the si

You can also do the opposite as in swap in points on the side of the road if the Petronix goes bad... That said, there is a situation where you may want to go to a Petronix: if your dizzy bushings ar

I think the other comments are on the mark here, so the only thing I'd add is to check the oil level in the dampers. I had similar sysmptoms to yours last Summer and it turned out that both of the da

Yeah, I've seen them in old Alfa Spiders. They're called "monkey seats" because only monkeys can fit in them, and there's more room behind the seats of an Alfa than a B. They're illegal in Cali to. T

For the three years I've owned my 74 1/2' the ignition hasn't been quite right. Sometimes it'd travel too far forward so the starter wouldn't disengage, and sometimes the key wouldn't go all the way

"...wasn't engineered for it" is a pretty vague reason... I mean, most MGs weren't engineered for radial tires, either, but that doesn't stop folks from fitting them, and for good reasons. I thought
