Something is wrong with my wipers. I have a 1970 MGB GT (with implanted  
Rover V8).   I bought new wiper arms and got a wiper motor from  a 
lister.  Now all are fitted but the wipers seem to be wrong in that  they 
wipe from right to left  and park on right resulting in poor  coverage on 
driver side.  Seems to me that they should wipe from left  to right - and 
park on left.   Are the motors capable of being  adjusted?   Are there 
different motors for GT's LH &  RH?
Which way is correct for LH drive GTs?


Barrie,
 
See _http://www.vtr.org/maintain/wiper-problem.shtml_ 
(http://www.vtr.org/maintain/wiper-problem.shtml) 
 
All that's required to reverse the parking position on your wipers is to  
pull the plastic cam out of the cam gear and replace it on the other side. If  
you need a photo of this, let me know.
 
Regards,
 
Dan
