[Healeys] BN7 on Ebay

[Keith Pennell]

That is a disconnected thermostat for the thermochoke model.  It was wired to an auxillary carb.  The thermostats were quite unreliable I have been told as this shorts out over time.  I hot wired mine to a switch and made it a manually-controlled-electrically-activated choke.  Worked quite well.

Hi All,


I know Healeys pretty well, but surely don’t know everything about them. Maybe I just don’t know the earlier 6 cylinder cars, but this has me stumped. there’s a listing for a 1960 BN7 on Ebay. While viewing the shot if the engine, I see something that I can’t identify. Mounted to the head by 3 screws is a triangle shaped component with something protruding up from the middle. It is right next to the thermostat housing. What is that?


Thanks,
Dave
