[Healeys] Roadside failuresMichelin XZX went egg-shaped while driving south on
I-75 at 75 mph.
Engine died immediately one fine Spring morning while accelerating through the
gears from a red light on U.S. 19. Hitched a ride to work. Subsequent fault
isolation revealed a "grenaded" 25D Lucas distributor...a centrifugal advance
weight had come loose and penetrated the cast distributor housing.

oil)
headlight switch shorted causing a fried wiring
harness

Wipers ceased functioning after running for four hours
in the rain. I still don't know what caused this. They
resumed functioning the next morning and I've been
afraid to drive in the rain ever since.
ignition coil
battery switch failed. Corrected by direct wiring to
the terminal
