Thank you for all the responses.  I guess I'm getting old. When I wrote "my go to was 3M super 77", I was recalling it wrong when actually it was the 3M#90 that I have always used. I think I may try the Barge Infinity cement, and possibly the Wildwood cement as suggested.

Here is the one my trimmer recommended-buys it by the case. Easy to
use controlled spray. It works great on everything like carpet,
armacord, and other trim, but for all vinyl I still use Weldwood
contact cement, dry to dry tacky to hold best. Hank

What is the number on top of the dial of the dual oil pressure/water

I have a silver dialedexternally lit dual gauge calibrated in pounds per 
square inch and Degrees Fahrenheit with the number X42638/15 and I 
suspect it to be from an A-H or a Land Rover SI.

The BN1/2 dual gauges are black face and are X42638/38 for the water gauge in farenheit and X42638/35 for the water gauge in celsius. I can?t find any reference to an X42638/15.

Hello,
 
These are the two products I use. The contact cement in the tin is solvent
based and I have found it easier to apply if the tin has not been opened
long. I buy small amounts more frequently. The spray is great for fabric and
more absorbent surfaces and materials.

Message-ID: <c7240b3f-d98f-6ffc-1d20-50be32f10694@comcast.net>

Fired up the 3000 today for a short local trip, and my heater valve 
started peeing on my leg (interesting that it leaks when closed, but not 
when it's open). Anyway, before I place an order to our favorite SoCal 
parts house, does anybody know if these can be fixed/rebuilt, or should 
I just spring for new? IIRC, the valve at the block is closed when at a 
right angle to the hose, correct (the valve kept leaking when I set it 
so, so either I gots it wrong or there's lots of residual coolant in the 
line/box)?

How much should I charge myself for labor?

TIA,
Bob

I have a silver dialedexternally lit dual gauge calibrated in pounds per

suspect it to be from an A-H or a Land Rover SI.

The BN1/2 dual gauges are black face and are X42638/38 for the water gauge in farenheit and X42638/35 for the water gauge in celsius. I can?t find any reference to an X42638/15.

Our early BN2 has X42638/38 Safety Gauge in it. The gauge face is black with white markings.

Hello,

These are the two products I use. The contact cement in the tin is solvent
based and I have found it easier to apply if the tin has not been opened
long. I buy small amounts more frequently. The spray is great for fabric and
more absorbent surfaces and materials.

Thank you for all the responses.  I guess I'm getting old. When I wrote "my

3M#90 that I have always used. I think I may try the Barge Infinity cement,
and possibly the Wildwood cement as suggested.

I don't think it can be rebuilt, as I recall there is a rubber diaphragm
inside that fails. It leaks because there is pressure in the line from the
radiator connection.

Subject: [Healeys] BJ8 Heater Valve Kaput

Fired up the 3000 today for a short local trip, and my heater valve started
peeing on my leg (interesting that it leaks when closed, but not when it's
open). Anyway, before I place an order to our favorite SoCal parts house,
does anybody know if these can be fixed/rebuilt, or should I just spring for
new? IIRC, the valve at the block is closed when at a right angle to the
hose, correct (the valve kept leaking when I set it so, so either I gots it
wrong or there's lots of residual coolant in the line/box)?

How much should I charge myself for labor?

Tom,

Yes, the gearbox can be removed through the passenger compartment, 
leaving the engine in place (need to support the engine).? There are 
some oil gallery plugs on the back side of the block too. The gasket 
between the engine block and the rear engine plate seals the camshaft bore.

Can you tell if it's engine oil or gearbox oil?? Transmission input 
shaft has a seal in the bell housing.

The bell housing bolts to the transmission case also go thru to the oil. We 
always remove the lock washers and install copper washers with thread 
sealer.

it is engine oil.  I've changed several clutches in my Healey time so removing the tranny isn't a concern.  I'd say it was time to replace the clutch anyway.  Thanks for the info on the oil gallery plugs.  If it is the aftermarket oil seal assume I'll need a new one.  We will see.

Could be the Input shaft seal (in the bellhousing). It comes out the same hole.

Don't forget to look at the braided oil line that goes to the rear of the engine block. They do break down. I always carry a spare. Cheap and easy repair.

it is engine oil.  I've changed several clutches in my Healey time so removing the tranny isn't a concern.  I'd say it was time to replace the clutch anyway.  Thanks for the info on the oil gallery plugs.  If it is the aftermarket oil seal assume I'll need a new one.  We will see.

Tom,

Yes, the gearbox can be removed through the passenger compartment,
leaving the engine in place (need to support the engine).  There are
some oil gallery plugs on the back side of the block too. The gasket
between the engine block and the rear engine plate seals the camshaft bore.

Can you tell if it's engine oil or gearbox oil?  Transmission input
shaft has a seal in the bell housing.

Cheers,

If you're running engine oil in the gearbox, if the seal in the 
bellhousing for the gearbox input shaft goes south you'll get a nice 
drip (both the gearbox and the engine drain through the same hole). 
Happened to me.

Hi fellow Healey owners

Does anyone know if there is a list like this one for Jaguar owners? This list is great, and I have been on it for 30 years, but I am suddenly having weird problems with my 98 XJ8 and need Jag help. The front passenger window opens on its own when the engine is started. The lift switches for that window do not function.  I can however close the window by using my key in the door lock. Sounds like typical Lucas electrics gone bad. At least my Healey is easy and starlight forward, making most fixes fairly easy. Any help would be appreciated.

I don't think it can be rebuilt, as I recall there is a rubber diaphragm
inside that fails. It leaks because there is pressure in the line from the
radiator connection.

Fired up the 3000 today for a short local trip, and my heater valve started
peeing on my leg (interesting that it leaks when closed, but not when it's
open). Anyway, before I place an order to our favorite SoCal parts house,
does anybody know if these can be fixed/rebuilt, or should I just spring for
new? IIRC, the valve at the block is closed when at a right angle to the
hose, correct (the valve kept leaking when I set it so, so either I gots it
wrong or there's lots of residual coolant in the line/box)?


How much should I charge myself for labor?


TIA,
Bob

Healey 100 listers,???? Can someone please confirm to me that the mounting bolts for the master cylinder on a BN1/2 is BSF threads or UNF.? I started to thread in a UNF bolt to mount the master cylinder and the familiar one turn and then stop when I am using the wrong thread on this car appeared.? I firmly believe if it's hard to do, you are doing it wrong.? Also, can someone confirm the horizontal part of the split air director that mounts behind the radiator grill is attached with two of the screws for the bumper apron?? I see no other attachment points other than the top of the air director vertical panel after it is bolted to the horizontal panel.? Where is the top attachment point on the body for the vertical panel?? This would be much easier if I had someone's BN1/2 to look at during assembly, but I am on my own pretty much relying on pictures I can find on the internet.Mike MacLean

Both of the master cylinder mounting bolts on most (most likely all) BN1s
and definitely all BN2s were UNF.  You may have to run a 5/16 UNF tap into
the holes to clean them out.

 front passenger window opens on its own when the engine is started. The lift switches for that window do not function.  I can however close the window by using my key in the door lock. Sounds like typical Lucas electrics gone bad. At least my Healey is easy
 and starlight forward, making most fixes fairly easy. Any help would be appreciated.

As you say UNF but it might be worth adding that the triangular
aluminium adapter plate has a short countersunk bolt that is also UNF.

Sometimes new owners when rebuilding are not aware of this plate and cannot
work out how to fit the master cylinder.

Hi John,

I'm not familiar with the "triangular aluminum adapter plate " on the BN1/2
master cylinder mounting.  Is this a RHD thing?

Cheers,

Curt

?Pls help. I have the car since March 2019 , I bought it from a dealer / estate sale in Benecia Cal.  I have 3-4 tech/wiring questions that my Flagstaff Az mechanic could not solve.  I love the car and am disappointed that he could not solve the problems. Can you send me a few email addresses that I can send my issues to ? . I have an electrical background but no one has been able to help me.  Thank you regards Matt Mirabile. 516-941-6167.

My quick take:

He should:

1) Join this list.

2) Join at least one forum:
 ?? https://www.britishcarforum.com
 ?? https://www.ahexp.com/

3) This list's own David Nock is the go-to for tough problems and 
otherwise impossible-to-find parts:
 ? http://www.britishcarspecialists.com

FWIW: I got an ammeter for my BJ8 years ago; it's the only one I've seen 
for Healeys--it is a Smiths--but I've been leery of installing it as it 
has to go in series with one of the terminals on the voltage 
regulator--no shunt--and AFAIK it carries full dis/charging current 
(possible major smoke producer). If his has a shunt, it's likely an 
aftermarket and he probably needs to contact the manufacturer (but it's 
likely for 12V systems and, conceivably, all he as to do is wire it 
backwards for pos. gnd.). Getting the fuel gauge to work properly can be 
an involved process; MGA Guru has the most comprehensive info I've seen:

Yes this is. I should have remembered that the States and some other
countries are LHD.

Correction: My old ammeter /may/ have a shunt resistor. I don't recall 
one, but I haven't looked at it in years; I'll see if I can find it in 
my parts stash. I didn't install it because it appeared full current 
could pass through it, and IIRC I figured 14ga wire or bigger might be 
needed, and would have to be routed through the scuttle and under the 
fascia.

My BN2 is in need of new hub extensions (the ones that bolt to the 
drums). A few years ago there were issues with some of the aftermarket 
extensions; i.e. they didn't fit the wheel hubs and/or were poorly 
machined. Anybody know if good ones are available, and who sells them (I 
have a set for my BJ8, but apparently they BN1/2 ones aren't 
interchangeable).

TIA,
Bo

 OK you guys.? Don't be throwing RHD parts around that are NOT on my LHD car.? It's confusing enough assembling a car from a bare frame with no example to go by.? Every time I have to assemble something I have to deal with the mystery of what fastener length, thread or "triangular adapter" parts I need to install a part.? If it were not for the internet where I can search for pictures of an assembly and the generosity of the members on this list, I might never finish this car.? This is why I ask questions about small details of assembly.Mike MacLean

Yes this is. I should have remembered?that the States and some other countries are LHD.

Hi John,
I'm not familiar with the "triangular aluminum adapter plate " on the BN1/2 master cylinder mounting.? Is this a RHD thing?
Cheers,

As you say UNF but it might be worth adding?that the triangular aluminium?adapter?plate has a short?countersunk?bolt that is also UNF.?
Sometimes new owners when rebuilding are not aware of this plate and cannot work out how to fit the master cylinder.

Both of the master cylinder mounting bolts on most (most likely all) BN1s and definitely all BN2s were UNF.? You may have to run a 5/16 UNF tap into the holes to clean them out.

Healey 100 listers,???? Can someone please confirm to me that the mounting bolts for the master cylinder on a BN1/2 is BSF threads or UNF.?

I firmly believe if it's hard to do, you are doing it wrong.? Also, can someone confirm the horizontal part of the split air director that mounts behind the radiator grill is attached with two of the screws for the bumper apron?? I see no other attachment points other than the top of the air director vertical panel after it is bolted to the horizontal panel.? Where is the top attachment point on the body for the vertical panel?? This would be much easier if I had someone's BN1/2 to look at during assembly, but I am on my own pretty much relying on pictures I can find on the internet.Mike MacLean

A wiring schematic would be very helpful. Moss has reprints of factory service manuals. Also someone has large 11?x17? laminated schematic with proper colors of wring offered.

Subject: [Healeys] Better Clutch Slave dust Cover
Message-ID: <ACFE4F484F3A4A92B0327912FB383185@Inspiron660>

Has anyone found a better(more effective) rubber dust cover for the slave cylinder?   I needed to replace my 15 year old slave cylinder which was leaking and discovered lots of road dirt and dust inside the dust cover. The old cover was fully attached as designed but inside was full of fine dust and road dirt. The dust cover has a small opening through which the push rod travels, but, that opening is not very tight and clearly allows a lot of road dirt to enter.   I am wondering if anyone has found a better method of sealing this opening?

The Amp gauge should not have a shunt resistor. The rating should be 
compatible with the output of the generator. Mostly 20A or 30A. If you 
have an uprated generator you should replace the Amp gauge with a 50A, 
60A or 80A gauge, depending on output. Make sure the wiring is up to 
these amperages. You cannot damage the gauge when you have connected it 
up the wrong way. It will just read charge instead of discharge v.v. The 
can be rectified by changing over the wires. There are no pos. or neg. 
earth versions. An Amp gauge is fitted in the main supply cable, usually 
brown, but should exclude the starter motor circuit.

Most were Lucas branded but there are a few SMITHS and JAEGER branded 
ones. They are all identical technically as they were all made by the 
same manufacturer.

A much safer option is fitting a Voltage gauge which is fitted standard 
in cars with an alternator. This is just wired to the accessory terminal 
of the ignition switch. It will give you the same information.

Listers:  it would be helpful if you would also Cc your response to the person who is asking for the information (matt4211 at verizon.net) so that I do not have to forward it to him individually.

He is not a member of this list and does not automatically receive your responses.  I thought we could provide the information he is requesting without the need for him to sign up on the list first.  He may decide to do so (or not) based on what help he receives.

I just heard an old time radio program, from 1955: "Fibber McGee and 
Molly" where there was an original radio commercial for "Nash for 55".

The script included;

"Nash for 55, with 7 new features that all cars must eventually adopt."

and,

"Nash for 55- with styling inspired by the new Nash-Healey."

Not having seen/heard such an advertising tie-in, I did a little 
research and came up with the following regarding the 1955 Nash:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1955-two-page-magazine-ad-for-Nash-Ambassador-and-new-Nash-features-for-1955/372984033864?hash=item56d794b248:g:wEUAAOSwghNZkeiq

and this TV commercial for "Nash for 55", with the same mention of 
Nash-Healey.? The jingle at end sounds like Cliff "Ukelele Ike" Edwards, 
aka Jiminy Cricket.

The Nash-Healey is sometimes called "America's First Sports Car" 
(Corvette aficionados will dispute it). The USPS issued a collection of 
stamps with the N-H featured on one.

G'day

I suppose it depends on your interpretation of a sports car.

The Nash-Healey was first sold on the US market in 1951 while the Corvette was introduced in 1953. Looking further obliquely, the Kaiser Darrin was built for 1954.

Message-ID: <CAFBXTkJsbAVWy7a4MekZAvCWkHRjpTnx+yeP95dhB2GeeE+iJQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi All -

Does anyone have a good method for bonding the paper on the demister
hoses?  I?m assuming I can just use brown paper from a shopping bag but
would like some advise as to what sort of wet adhesive to use. I?m guessing
I can just somehow wind these up and clamp them to a pipe then wrap it in
paper then twine?

Yes I?m cheating this is for my ?51 A90 but it?s the same as used on
Healeys.

Thanks!

Alan

You could try rubber cement, which should be flexible but would be a bear to align as you roll the paper; once rubber cement touches itself, it'll stick. As for paper, I have some brown painter's paper in a long roll from the local home center. It is meant to take the paint and not bleed through. That might be useful with glue. I'd do a test run of the materials before applying it to the real thing.

Hi Alan,
Roger Moment figured out a way to make those and may be able to help.
Before I  found that he could supply them I considered wrapping paper tape(
the kind used for sealing boxes) around a pipe with the adhesive out.
Then wind the wire tightly.
Then apply an outer layer of the same tape, adhesive in, wound in the
opposite direction.
I've never tried it but intend to do so next time I  need some.

Hi All -

 

Does anyone have a good method for bonding the paper on the demister hoses?  I?m assuming I can just use brown paper from a shopping bag but would like some advise as to what sort of wet adhesive to use. I?m guessing I can just somehow wind these up and clamp them to a pipe then wrap it in paper then twine?

 

Yes I?m cheating this is for my ?51 A90 but it?s the same as used on Healeys.

 

Thanks!

 

Alan

I bought new ones, same problem, so I wrapped the end with Gorilla tape.

Hi All -

Does anyone have a good method for bonding the paper on the demister hoses?  I?m assuming I can just use brown paper from a shopping bag but would like some advise as to what sort of wet adhesive to use. I?m guessing I can just somehow wind these up and clamp them to a pipe then wrap it in paper then twine?

Yes I?m cheating this is for my ?51 A90 but it?s the same as used on Healeys.

Thanks!

Alan

I also have several parts for Healey 3000's for sale. They include 5 rear
axle hubs, a cleaned and painted rear end housing for a BJ-8 in good shape,
A couple of 3:9 rear differentials that are in good shape but will need
shimming. I removed some of the shims to rebuild other units. Two usable
oil pans, one has had a new lower pan nicely welded on. They were removed
to install alloy pans from running cars. Also two original radiators from
running cars. If yourare interested in any of these parts contact me at
waschu2 at gmail.com and I can supply pictures as needed. I really don't
want to ship because of the size and weight of most of these parts, but I
will consider doing so. I would like it if these parts went to local Healey
owners in need? Fair offers considered.

Michael

I don't recognise your first attachment but the second looks like the
standard BN1 arrangement The last being the parts required to constrain the
BN2 gearbox with overdrive.

It is not always realised that if these are not correctly fitted then with
sudden braking a small shunt the whole power unit can move forward on the
engine mounts and put the fan through the radiator. I have seen this

Best regards

Looks as though you are trying to put a BN2 gearbox into a BN1.
The BN2 restraint bar hole should be in the center of the small cross
member and the overdrive should have an "eye" cast behind the drain plug at
accept the "U" of the restraint bar.

 Mike nailed it. The first photo is a fabricated part made when the trans swap was done in order to use the BN-1 restraint bar with the BN-2 trans. BN-1 has a cast in mount in the same place as your fabricated one. See photo of BN-1 trans, mount in center of photo.

Listers,

I helped Roger Moment make the ones for my car many years ago, and
here's the process...

Roger machined a billet aluminum cylinder the correct diameter and then had
the correct spiral machined into the surface.  The depth of the machined
spiral was half the diameter of the wire.

He then would the proper gauge wire into the groves of the cylinder and
secured the ends.

Then he found a thin light brown paper and cut it to size, and then soaked
it in a solution of warm water and "Elmers" glue.

Before wrapping the paper around the cylinder he sprayed it with a coating
of WD-40.

After wrapping the paper onto the cylinder, he then wound a soft braided
nylon cord in between the spirals of the wire to hold the form.

Then hang it up to dry.

Once dry, the tube can be screwed off of the cylinder.  The WD-40 aids in
this process.

Done and perfect!

 I am asking because of some photos from a YouTube video and Facebook account called Resto Nation in England.? The first two photos are the restraint he is using in his 100.? So I am guessing he put a BN2 transmission in a BN1 chassis.? I have the arrangement I bought from Tom's Toy Import for my BN2 trans in a BN2 chassis.? The pictures from Resto Nation just threw me off a bit.? Thanks for straitening me out guys.Mike MacLean

Oh that?s great!  so the Elmers will still work even if a little WD40 leaks
to the paper?  I will try this.  My hose still has the original wrapping
twine on it so all I really need is a pipe to clamp it to then I will put
repair sections on it, the. wrap the twine to hold it in place.  the twine
they used original is very thin yet very strong.

Hi Alan, are you sure that your Atlantic demist tubes are constructed on a
"twine" form. The material used on the 100s is thin steel wire.
Roger used twine to press the paper down between the turns of wire to
produce the corregated shape.

Hi Michael -

Yes, the form is wire.  If you look at my picture you can see the brown
twine they used to push the paper down onto the wire to form the hose.
that's the twine I was talking about.  It's very strong twine so I think I
can just reuse it rather than using thread or something like that.

Cheers,

Alan

No, the flywheel does nothing to trigger the ignition. Make sure though 
that you replace it in the same position you took it off (mark with 
centre punch or permanent marker). If you do not this you may upset the 
balance if the crankshaft, as in properly rebuild engines the crankshaft 
is balanced with the flywheel and clutch assembly fitted.

Not an expert on this, but I just did it with my engine, and to tell you the truth, I'm not even sure if I got it back in the exact same position, but my engine fired up and ran. And about five minutes in, it blew a freeze plug, but that's another story and totally my fault. Good luck!

If the engine has been rebuilt or built for increased performance it may have been statically balanced. If so the flywheel should be replaced in the same position as it may have had weight added or removed to match other components during the process.

Steven -

Well you should know that the effective freeze plug operation depends
entirely on perfect alignment of the flywheel ring.  Check the workshop
manual.

Cheers ;P ,

Thanks--I'm removing it to access the aftermarket oil seal that I think is leaking.  I found a small puddle of oil on the floor in that approximate area and could find no other source of the leak.Tom

If it's not (relatively) new, I recommend replacing the front seal on 
the gearbox--inside the bellhousing--while you have the gearbox out. Oh, 
and check your release 'bearing.'

Well I guess we'll/I'll find out this weekend then for sure as I replaced the freeze plug, but I also had a leaky block drain plug that could have been caused by the improper alignment. Or it could have just been operator error when I smacked the freeze plug in place rather than whacked it in place.?
???Or can you say: "leg pull"? Thanks Alan.

Well you should know that the effective freeze plug operation depends entirely on perfect alignment of the flywheel ring.? Check the workshop manual.

Sounds like the standard, factory correct Healey vapor lock. When the engine is turned off residual heat soaks out of the engine and boils the fuel in the float bowls. Try cooling the float bowls with a spray of water or a wet rag. If that solves it you know the problem, although not necessarily the solution.

Keith,

Did you happen to feel the coil after it acted up?? if it is that, it 
will be very hot, so be careful to avoid burning your hand.

Yup. My BJ8 does the same, but I haven't driven the BN2 enough to say it 
does too (I presume it does/will).

You said 'would not restart,' as in it would crank, but not fire, or 
wouldn't crank? When a marginal starter gets heat-soaked they often 
won't crank the engine as fast which, of course, makes starting more 
difficult. Same with a heat-soaked, marginal fuel pump; it might not 
pump well enough to (at least partly) overcome cavitation in the fuel line.

Vapor lock;
Mine starts at 195 on the gauge during warm weather with heat sink to 200+ when shut down to cool. About 20 minutes and it runs again.
I wrapped fuel lines but haven?t installed the heat shield I?ve had for many years.
Hence I rarely drive it in mid summer here in KY

Sounds like my BJ8 when I brought it to South Florida where 80 is a cool day. I fixed the poor starting power by cleaning the negative and positive connections. I replaced the negative clamp on the battery. Once you know positively the you have a solid grounds and a fully charged battery it is amazing how the engine will start when the engine is hot. Also, I had my radiator boiled out, installed a pusher fan with manual switch so that I can turn on the fan when driving under 4k rpm and I leave it on while idling before shutting off. 

 Inaddition i installed a shovel between the radiator and the front frame member to direct air into the radiator instead of under the car. This is on a recently rebuilt engine. so now when the engine is at over 200 degrees the engine starts. And when driving at 40 mph in traffic and the temperature drops to 212 without the fan and at 70 plus on the freeway it operates at around 200. I should have wrapped the exhaust manifold etc. Will do next time I feel like taking off the carbs.

Could be a lean mixture or possibly wrong timing of the ignition. These 
are often the cause of hot running after a few miles. Perhaps the cause 
of the wrong mixture could be a stuck SU carb piston?

Healeys Rough Running

Hook up a 4" dia tube like the one used on the heater to draw air in on the carb side of the engine and point it so it blows air cross the float bowls. ( even warm air (should be enough to eliminate the vapor lock). and install a 4" dia axial flow fan in the tube ( avaiiable at boat shops used as a bildge pump fan).

If the engine has been rebuilt or built for increased performance it may have been statically balanced. If so the flywheel should be replaced in the same position as it may have had weight added or removed to match other components during the process.

No, the flywheel does nothing to trigger the ignition. Make sure though that you replace it in the same position you took it off (mark with centre punch or permanent marker). If you do not this you may upset the balance if the crankshaft, as in properly rebuild engines the crankshaft is balanced with the flywheel and clutch assembly fitted.

Steven -

Well you should know that the effective freeze plug operation depends
entirely on perfect alignment of the flywheel ring.  Check the workshop
manual.

Cheers ;P ,

Thanks--I'm removing it to access the aftermarket oil seal that I think is leaking.  I found a small puddle of oil on the floor in that approximate area and could find no other source of the leak.Tom

If it's not (relatively) new, I recommend replacing the front seal on
the gearbox--inside the bellhousing--while you have the gearbox out. Oh,
and check your release 'bearing.'

Well I guess we'll/I'll find out this weekend then for sure as I replaced the freeze plug, but I also had a leaky block drain plug that could have been caused by the improper alignment. Or it could have just been operator error when I smacked the freeze plug in place rather than whacked it in place.?
???Or can you say: "leg pull"? Thanks Alan.

Sounds like the standard, factory correct Healey vapor lock. When the engine is turned off residual heat soaks out of the engine and boils the fuel in the float bowls. Try cooling the float bowls with a spray of water or a wet rag. If that solves it you know the problem, although not necessarily the solution.

Two days ago I took the BJ8 out for its every-four-month exercise.  Just as before it ran beautifully for the first 8 or so miles then began to develop a miss.  Temp gauge around 180 and ambient temp 80-82 F.  When I stopped for some photo taking it would not restart (as I was afraid it would).  Temp gauge above 220.  After a 20 minute cooling off and allowing the temp to drop below 200 it reluctantly restarted, still with a miss, and I hurried on home.
Any thoughts on what is the cause of this behavior?

Keith,

Did you happen to feel the coil after it acted up?? if it is that, it
will be very hot, so be careful to avoid burning your hand.

Yup. My BJ8 does the same, but I haven't driven the BN2 enough to say it
does too (I presume it does/will).

You said 'would not restart,' as in it would crank, but not fire, or
wouldn't crank? When a marginal starter gets heat-soaked they often
won't crank the engine as fast which, of course, makes starting more
difficult. Same with a heat-soaked, marginal fuel pump; it might not
pump well enough to (at least partly) overcome cavitation in the fuel line.

Vapor lock;
Mine starts at 195 on the gauge during warm weather with heat sink to 200+ when shut down to cool. About 20 minutes and it runs again.
I wrapped fuel lines but haven?t installed the heat shield I?ve had for many years.
Hence I rarely drive it in mid summer here in KY

I bought the Moss seal for my BN6 windshield. It's wrinkled where it was
stuffed into a ziploc.

What is the best lube for getting it through the channel?

Is there a way of smoothing out the wrinkles/buckling?

Any advice from the List on fitting new springs to the rear of my BN1, so we can push the chassis around in the shop?  We violated the old rule of ?never throw a part away until you?ve fitted the new one??and the new springs have much more arch than the old, and we?re trying to figure out how to compress them enough to bolt them in place.  (And of course everything is so accessible under there?.)

 Just did this not too long ago.? You need a floor jack, bottle jack and a cargo strap.? Put the floor jack under the spring and axle and place the floor jack under the spring with the u-bolt plate in place.? Wrap the strap under the jack and over the axle and connect it to itself in a tight loop.? All you need to do then is to pump up the bottle jack and it lifts the spring right up to the axle.? Make sure the plate is positioned correctly so the peg on the bottom of the spring goes into the hole in the u-bolt plate.?

Any advice from the List on fitting new springs to the rear of my BN1, so we can push the chassis around in the shop?? We violated the old rule of ?never throw a part away until you?ve fitted the new one??and the new springs have much more arch than the old, and we?re trying to figure out how to compress them enough to bolt them in place.? (And of course everything is so accessible under there?.)

 ?

Thanks in advance,

That's not an easy job.
Before tackling it try to determine that the springs that you are
installing are reasonably close to spec. as it is a real pain to have to
change them if they aren't.
Put the axle in position, preferably without the brake back plates
installed, then install the springs without attaching them to the axle.
Sometimes after attaching the front you have to put a wood block above the
rear end of the spring and jack up the center to get the rear shackle pins
in place. You may need a heavy person to sit in the trunk to prevent the
car from lifting as you do this.
Next use a couple of *very stout* zip ties to tie the axle down tightly to
the frame on one side.
Then on the other side use a very large and strong "C" clamp to pull the
spring up to the axle. which will allow you to install the square shaped
"U" bolts. (the wire ties are required to prevent the axle pivoting up on
the opposite frame rail as you do this "C" clamp thing. (Take care and your
time as there is a lot of stored energy in that compressed spring)
Leaving the zip ties in place repeat the "C" clamp process on the other
side.
The bad news about this  is that the new springs will sag after a couple of
years and eventually you will have to repeat the entire process!!!

I replaced mine while the body and mechanicals were off the chassis and had the same problem. When the car was assembled they were still too high and after about a year of frequent use they finally seem to be settling down to normal height. I?m wondering about the unity and tolerances of the replacement units...

Just did this not too long ago.  You need a floor jack, bottle jack and a cargo strap.  Put the floor jack under the spring and axle and place the floor jack under the spring with the u-bolt plate in place.  Wrap the strap under the jack and over the axle and connect it to itself in a tight loop.  All you need to do then is to pump up the bottle jack and it lifts the spring right up to the axle.  Make sure the plate is positioned correctly so the peg on the bottom of the spring goes into the hole in the u-bolt plate.  Also remember to position the strap so it is not in the way when you put the u-bolts in place.  Easy peasy.  See attached photos.

This is a good method for fitting new springs to a late BN1 or BN2 but for
an early BN1 a different approach will be needed because the square shaped
shackles come in from above, fitting straight onto the axle case with no
additional plate

Process is complicated by the fact that the chassis (w/fenders but no doors) is up on a rotisserie.  We may have to lower it onto a wheeled platform  on the floor, as it?s now far too high in the air to reach with jacks?.

 Re: original spec: Some of the issue with the springs is that the
original material was , if I remember correctly, .051 thickness and
that metal is no longer available today. Most of the shops have to use
.065 stock. Therefore, since my early BN1 used the "A" type neg.
camber spring (really wimpy) I chose to have the spring shop only make
the leaves that were broken. The finished package has to fit the
original U clamp and plate and if you use all .065 material, it is too
thick and stiff. Additionally, on the early frame, it is a flat floor,
so there is not room for a thick rolled end to fit in the space. You
cannot replace them with "C" type double eye springs. My ride height
appears to be normal, as configured now; not as low as I have seen on
some other squatty 100s.

My wife Genie and I were saddened to hear last night of Gerry Coker's passing. Gerry and his wife Marion were guests in our home several times while I was president of the Austin-Healey Club Pacific Centre and we have stayed in touch through Christmas cards and occasional visits ever since. Gerry was the most delightful person to meet, as thousands of Healey enthusiasts who met him over the years knows. 
In 2002, the last time Gerry was in my home, he gave me a print of his original plane view of the Healey Hundred that he had tinted and signed, and he signed my Donald Healey print of the Austin-Healey BN7 with hard-top, a perfect image of the car I have in my garage to this day.Gerry was one of the most innovative designers imaginable, and I will always remember the chats we had together about those days in 1952 when, as a new automobile designer just getting his start, Donald had asked him to sketch out his ideas for a new sports car, and from them engineered and built the revolutionary Healey 100.I've posted the pictures on my wall on my Facebook page.
Rest in peace, Gerry

I should have explained that we used a variant of the procedure.  The springs were already bolted in place, so we ran the strap around the frame and under the jack, to hold the frame down while we jacked up the spring?then we could move the axle to get the peg aligned with the hole in the spring while we installed the U-bolts.

       We had the pleasure of meeting Gerry and Marion at an AHSTC Encounter in 2012.  He signed a photocopy of my Heritage Certificate?now I wish I had brought the original!  Here?s a photo of them sitting at  our table, and one of a sign on the wall at the autograph session?so true!  (My mechanic?an old-time race-car guy whose mantra is ?everything should be readily accessible??swears he?ll never work on another British car?.)

Hope you all have a good day in the midst of trying times.

Happy Healey Birthday, Perry!  I have a few circular trips on you, having completed 27,099 as of today (not my birthday).  
Just about one-half (13,368) of those days have been spent with TARHEELY covering 131,195 miles. That is the best half....

Cheers to all!

Darin,
Best bet would be to contact someone in the Bonneville Austin Healey club in SLC per your area code.  I had a 59' engine rebuilt in SLC by a local engine builder.  When I had my 57' Longbridge rebuilt the only problem was after boring it out I had to use later pistons and rods as early 100-6 clamp type pistons were unobtainable.

Hello -

I thought I saw a post about someone rebuilding an early (Longbridge) Healey engine. I would be interested in speaking to them regarding that project. Can anyone help me connect with them? THANKS!

I?m close top Steve  . . . 27118 days, down here in NZ on the 18th.  

And 49 years ago, yesterday on 17 November 1971, I purchased my first Healey, with racing history, a BN1, Chassis 159745, Engine 214461

What a wonderful journey that began.

Happy Healey Birthday, Perry!  I have a few circular trips on you, having completed 27,099 as of today (not my birthday).  

Just about one-half (13,368) of those days have been spent with TARHEELY covering 131,195 miles. That is the best half....

 

Cheers to all!

Today I celebrate the start of a new day, number 25933 on this long trip around the sun. I?m grateful to have shared many of those days with my Austin Healey friends and those little cars that both thrill and annoy us. Just like you folks! I?m kidding, kind of....

Hope you all have a good day in the midst of trying times.

Steve,
I may just be leading the pack! Interesting topic and I marched out to find out my seat time. 
I purchased my BJ8 30 yrs ago or so on a cold December night . 
At the the time the clock showed confirmed with documentation 50,396 miles.
Today by surprise,  I checked the clock and it showed 98,936!  That said I have put 48,540 enjoyable miles on her as of 11/17/2020! My goal has always been to drive more miles then any other owner or owners(3rd), then at point I will consider her finally mine with more seat time and mileage then any other driver . On that day god willing, we will celebrate with a beer for me and few fresh quarts of oil for her!!

29396 today.

Happy Birthday Perry.  Congratulations (I think!)  on starting this discussion, which seems to be proving beyond much doubt that most Healey owners are getting to be 'Old Farts'.  Not sure that we needed that reminder, but those of us that are here to talk about it are - or should be - grateful.

So far, only Mike Sinclair has beaten me.  Seems that I am really, really close to John Simms.

Thanks, Perry.? Now I really feel old. ? :-) ?? Actually, I've been 
working under the dash straightening out some wiring problems.? Not easy 
at any age.

Happy belated birthday Perry.
I recently installed a SS exhaust on my 66 BJ8.
At 28868 days, I have to admit that the use of the 4 post hoist since 2008
has contributed much to my ability to do such tasks.
I just give Thanks for being able to do what I really enjoy.

I won't even begin  to tell you my age but let's just say it is up there with the best of you----and--right now I have the tranny pulled, the FW off, (just reinstalled it really)  and will add a new clutch on my BJ8--all while mostly on my back:)Tom

Anyone have a set of MGB HS4 carbs that are rebuildable at least they would like to sell?? Six months ago I bought a 1969 MGB GT.? It came with an aluminum head (good) and a Weber DCOE carb.? Absolutely hate the Weber for the street.? I'd be willing to trade the Weber with a new Pierce Weber manifold and new K&N air filter for the SUs.Mike MacLean

Michael--

I am pretty sure I have a pair of 4's that came off my MGA-equipped Courier
when I bought it.
I KNOW I have a rebuilt set of HS6's and you may want to think about them
as I am sure  B can handle them.
It will be a few weeks till I can verify as I am three weeks post-op from a
knee replacement but I will let you know. Please send me an email or text
to 305-793.9467.

What is the size and condition of the DCOE?

If you really want to liven up that MGB then install a set of the HS6 carbs.   

We also have some HS4 carbs that would need rebuilt.  ALso would have air filters, linkage and manifolds if you needed.

Congratulations Perry.  I have past 30,000 trips around the sun - specially 30223.  My first Healey was purchased used in 1966.  It was a 1964 Sprite.

Have seen far worse.

 

Look at this BN2 coming to the end of its restoration in Australia.

 I've had the Bullet only since 1996 (24 yrs), but my first BJ8 was purchased new in 1964, second BJ8 purchased new 1968, third BJ8 purchased used in 1977.  These were owned almost "back-to-back" during those years.  A Bugeye snuck in there from late '70's to '76? Altogether, lots of Healey miles driven, but not documented.  Nineteen Conclaves driven to (and from) in Austin-Healeys (18 in my BJ8s,  one in my Bugeye).  Lots of other events.
As a side note, thirteen other Conclaves in other cars.  Really am sad that I didn't make Deadwood in my Healey; there might not be another opportunity to drive a Conclave in the Bullet.

I know it seems trivial, but was wondering if there was a P-clip holding the wiring harness on the top machine screw that holds the flasher relay to the inner fender. The same one where the harness is grounded. The concours picture set I have show no P-clip, but my flasher relay shows evidence that P-clip was there (fairly original car). I'm making every effort to keep the harness attachments/ routing as original as possible.  Thanks in advance.

I think it doesn?t really qualify as an Austin Healey?just a bin of once associated bits.
Hard to believe that bid!

It was a dream trip set up by Steve Bell who did a masterful job of setting it up and coordinating it.Tom

Michael 
My guess is the fuel pump quit ticking while parked under a Oak tree in rainy England. The rest is typical Healey deterioration. They tend to "return to the earth!". 
I wonder what happened at mile 24,856.

Looking at the Anderson/Moment book it would appear the the car chosen for the photo of the 100 flasher relay has a P clip on the rear top machine screw..
Several of our used relays have a shadow of the clip evident in the galvanized finish at that location.

That is what I found as well. Someone sent a picture of a unrestored car and it is the same as described.  I know that not all were exactly the same, but it seems the p-clip installed may have been the norm.
Thank you

Gladys, our 67 BJ8,  has been in our family since 1996. She made the trip
organized by Steve Bell mentioned by Tom Felts.  As Tom said, Steve Bell
did a fantastic job of organizing a spectacular trip.  The people and
sights were magnificent....so was the food... :-)

23464 days
Bought my Healey in 1975.
Many other LBCs as well, but the Healey is along for the full ride and then
on to my kids.
I am happy that so many of you have been riding with me these many days.
Good health to us all
And happy Birthday Perry.

Yes there is a P clip.  Here is a photo of a 54 BN1 that was pretty much un touched when we started the restorations

That is what I found as well. Someone sent a picture of a unrestored car and it is the same as described.  I know that not all were exactly the same, but it seems the p-clip installed may have been the norm.

Looking at the Anderson/Moment book it would appear the the car chosen for the photo of the 100 flasher relay has a P clip on the rear top machine screw..
Several of our used relays have a shadow of the clip evident in the galvanized finish at that location.

I know it seems trivial, but was wondering if there was a P-clip holding the wiring harness on the top machine screw that holds the flasher relay to the inner fender. The same one where the harness is grounded. The concours picture set I have show no P-clip, but my flasher relay shows evidence that P-clip was there (fairly original car). I'm making every effort to keep the harness attachments/ routing as original as possible.  Thanks in advance.

I'm too lazy to count my earthly rotations, but I look at my life to 
date as: BAH and AAH* (roughly evenly split). When I bought my BJ8 I 
rediscovered my love of cars--dormant since my teenage years--and with 
my father's tutelage began to acquire my (meager) mechanical skills. 
After my dad started helping me with my car--and drove it 600 miles over 
two days to 'break in the engine'--he decided he didn't dislike 'foreign 
cars' after all and, all on his own found and bought our BN2/100M, which 
we restored together over 10 years (while he fought two bouts with 
cancer). My son--who just finished a 260-day tour on a Navy cruiser on 
the South China Sea--helped a little, but hasn't yet 'caught the bug,' 
but enjoyed taking a couple long road trips with his old man. My annual 
road trips with my BFF were usually the highlights of my solar orbits.

We lost Dad two years ago this December at 87 years-old, he'd hoped to 
make it to 90 because "It's a nice round number." You'll have to excuse 
me, I seem to have gotten some wildfire smoke in my eyes.

The problem is, you restore the rest of it and then the front badge looks like crap.

Message-ID: <MN2PR13MB3503A5EEF6C7A2A8B3585D39B8E00@MN2PR13MB3503.namprd13.prod.outlook.com>

Took the Healey out this afternoon for a drive.  Noticed something leaking.  First thought was the radiator overflow.  Nope!  Checked the radiator, the hoses and the pump which all looked good and there was no "hissing" or steam from any cooling system parts.  Whatever is leaking was a watery black liquid (definitely not antifreeze) coming from the underside of the steering box.  What makes no sense is that it only starts to leak with the engine running.  It appears to be a fairly constant flow and fairly rapid but stops as soon as the engine is shut down.   It is coming from the bottom front of the steering box not from the steering arm where it leaves the box.  Whatever is leaking only feel a little oily but is very watery and black.   I don't have power steering so there isn't any increase in pressure with the engine running, plus it doesn't look or feel like power steering fluid.  I have run out of ideas.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Did you check the level of your steering box lube?

If it only leaks when the engine is running then the most likely source is
the cooling system. You need to collect a sample and see if it mixes with
water. Fuel and oil won't, coolant will.

Seems to me we gots two questions: 1) where is is coming from? and 2) 
what is it? #1 should answer #2, but not necessarily.

If we rule out the steering box we can go from there (should take all of 
3 minutes). If he's got oil in his coolant he's got a potentially major 
problem; short of a ruptured intake hose or radiator tank--which should 
be obvious--I can't see how you get fluid all over the steering box (a 
leaky shock will greasify everything in its vicinity).

after checking the steering box oil level I would be looking at the weep
hole on the water pump.  if that is the source he might have nothing more
serious than a leaking head gasket.

Message-ID: <d34c928e-4115-cb4a-e24e-b812b4808ee0@comcast.net>

I have been greatly impressed with the PCV setup in my BJ8. I would like 
to rig one for my BN2 but, unfortunately, it isn't an 'obvious' 
situation like for the 6-cyl, 12-port cars (not a complete, 
recirculating system, but close enough). Has anyone fitted a PCV valve 
to a 4-cyl?

TIA,
Bob

I have done this. I had a piece of 1/4" pipe nipple (threaded end) brazed on in the center of the carburetor balance pipe, made a flange to fit the opening for the crankcase down tube on the tappet cover and placed the PCV in the space between the exhaust manifold and the block. Then I ran a copper tube to the balance pipe. It seems to work fine, doesn't affect idle or performance, controls blowby and keeps oil from entering the air cleaner. I will try to get some pics, but it's pretty much hidden.

Thanks Bill. Pictures would be much appreciated.

Do you recall the brand/part# of the valve?

Pretty sure that it was mounted inside the car, not the engine compartment
on all 100s.

Mike,

I agree with Michael as does Lynn Martin as he's done all of his BN1/2s
that way, my car included.

Just take a close look at the pilot bush in the end of the crankshaft.
I had a case where it was damaged and the 1st motion shaft had crumpled it
over.

Hmmmmm ... big news in our humble little LBC community. VB has been 
slipping in recent years WRT inventory--e.g., for years, all they've had 
was half a BJ8 exhaust system--and MM will probably bring them 
up-to-snuff, or absorb them entirely (lot of overhead to run two 
separate companies; unfortunately there will probably be some 
'redundancies'). Cuts the number of suppliers, though, which may not be 
good for prices, though we'll still have LBC Cars and I think Sports & 
Classics are still in the game; many others source from Moss (mostly), 
and I think Moss gets some of their stuff from overseas.

Sign of the times, I suppose. Maybe my old VB catalogs will become 
collectible?

Some crappy parts such as water pumps notwithstanding it is still a great
resource for the Healey community.

Just figured out where the mystery fluid leak was coming from. It turned out to be gasoline leaking from the float to jet pipe on the rear carb. It was dripping onto the steering column and running down to the steering box. Still need to check to see if is just a loose connection or the pipe is broken.

Odd you didn't smell the gas, and what was the 'black' color, oil or 
paint from the steering column?

At age 67, nothing works as well as it used to--insert snarky comment 
here ;)--but my sense of smell is better than ever, and I can smell a 
gas leak from 50 feet away. Go figure (maybe with the other senses 
attenuated, smell takes precedence).

Tom:  Is it hanging up on the firewall?  The gear box needs to be rotated clockwise enough so the "bump" on the bell housing where the starter pinion goes clears the firewall.  And the whole engine/transmission alignment must be perfect.  If you have done that, then my next guess would be a damaged pilot bush.  .

The needle valve is stuck open due to debris and needs to be removed and

Many of you were wondering why I didn?t smell gas at first.
My sense is that the black color was a combination of paint, grease and gunk from the steering column and steering gear box. As for the odor. Believe it or not there wasn't much of an odor from the small sample I collected but after a puddle accumulated on my garage floor the smell was pretty obvious.

BTW does anyone know the size open end wrench I need to tighten the connection for the float chamber to the jet tube if it turns out to be the culprit.

*	Well, if we're talking HD6s &/or if all SUs have the same nut and if
you mean what the Parts Book calls "Cap nut for lid" then my socket is
5/16BSF 1/4W. By all this I mean item 36, arrowed, on the attached. Got to

Message-ID: <CADigPhQfFPDbHJtvR32eJTbVFVCTXE0qJeosLKRLJYf6TdBsSQ@mail.gmail.com>

I'm getting ready to recarpet and reinstall the bulkhead transmission cover
that goes in front of the transmission tunnel on the 100M and the cover is
different than that on #923.  So the questions:

On the cover I assume the carpet wraps around to the sides
The sides should  go in on the engine side when installed on the car?
My panel has 2 screw holes at the top and a bunch in the side wings - the
holes in the wings I believe are wrong Yes?

Any help or pictures would be appreciated.  Be well and stay safe

Some of the parts I have gotten from Moss and others mentioned still had
the AH Spares sticker on them.   Sometimes I have waited two weeks to get
parts from Va. to Ct.  AH Spares get them to my Ct. house in four to five
days.

So I was finally able to check the tightness of the pipe to float bowl and it seems to be ok. I also removed the float and there dis gasoline in the bowl but only below the orifice leading to the tube to the jet. Didn?t see any evidence of a crack or hole in the bowl. Now I will need to remove the carburetor in order to change the jet and tube. Does anyone have any suggestions on getting only the rear carb off. So far I have tried every contortion I can but can?t get to the lower front nut.  I think I will need to remove both carbs in order to get the rear carb out. It has been 20-30 years since I last rebuilt the carbs and don?t remember exactly how I did it.

Does anyone know if the Moss wiring harness (vinyl wires in fabric loom- BN2) has two white wires for the OD dash switch, instead of one white and one white/ purple as in the factory wiring diagram?
Thanks all, Shawn

Both carbs have to come off, as they're on studs and the throttle shafts 
are connected (the connector slides out, but only after you have the 
carbs out). Unfortunately, there are no secrets or tricks; but you'll 
want to use a 'stubby' end wrench (or cut a cheap half-inch end wrench 
in half). Last time I removed them from my BJ8, I went in from the front 
under both carbs to get the the lower/forward nut on the rear carb, 
which is the most difficult to reach. I have numerous scars on my hands 
and forearms from this and other mechanical endeavors (and working in an 
almond orchard; sometimes those trees feel like they have millions of 
fish hooks hanging from their branches).

I don't remember which car you have, but since you'll have both carbs on 
the bench it would be a good time to go through them and replace any 
worn parts (diaphragm for HD, packing for others). In fact, your leak 
could be from a split diaphragm it you have HD carbs.

Haven't seen that, but we got a wiring loom from Moss--I think they 
outsource them--for a BN2 that had an incorrectly-colored wire. Spent 
several days trying to figure out why the rear turn signals didn't work 
correctly, even disassembling the relay, only to find that one of the 
wires was wrong (this really ticked me off as I'd gotten the wiring 100% 
correct from the schematic).

After sleeping on it and taking a fresh look, I discovered my mistake. Wiring harness was correct,  I was wrong and confused two wires. ?

The Weber, or better two Webers (or DellOrtos) should be fine. However 
they should be fitted with the correct jets and venturies. Best to 
contact a MG forum, they will know.

Webers or DellOrtos are so much easier to maintain than the SUs. A good

We have removed several sets of Webers over the years on several different British Cars. Triumphs, MGs, Healeys. Due to poor running, poor gas economy etc.,
They are great if you have a high performance engine but on a stock or mild built British motor they are more work that they are worth.

The SU carbs once set up correctly will not require and fiddling

Kees,

Please list the routine maintenance requirements for SU carburettors. 
I've been terribly negligent, I "set'em and forget'em" for tens of 
thousands of miles.

I generally like Ant Anstead--still preferred Edd, though--but when he 
called SUs 'rubbish' I almost threw my remote at the big screen. Even a 
pro like Edd had to bring in a specialist to tune the Webers on a Lambo.

SUs are a simple, elegant design; compared to them fixed-choke carbs 
with their multiple jets, accelerator pumps--a common failure point--are 
a kludge. Both share common float valve/bowl issues.

 The problem with the Weber on this engine is that I have no idea what cam is being used.? I also do not know how the aluminum head is flowing air.? Maybe using a professional tuning the Weber? on a dyno I could get the right combo of emulsion tubes, jets etc.? Much simpler procedure with the SU carbs.? Just one needle to get right and one nut to turn and a Gunson Colortune will tell me if the mixture is right.? In any case the Weber is coming off and goes on the shelf.

 SUs are a simple, elegant design; compared to them fixed-choke carbs with their multiple jets, accelerator pumps--a common failure point--are a kludge. Both share common float valve/bowl issues.

The Weber, or better two Webers (or DellOrtos) should be fine. However they should be fitted with the correct jets and venturies. Best to contact a MG forum, they will know.
 
Webers or DellOrtos are so much easier to maintain than the SUs. A good book is Des Hammill's book How to Build & Power Tune Weber & DellOrto DCOEE & DHLA Carburetors

Ed has his limitations as Ant does but I think Ant is more inclined to 
repair things himself. Anyway they have to make a show and the result of 
their work is not that important. If you look closely enough that shows.

SU's are certainly not rubbish.? In fact they are a very clever design. 
However it is not easy to get them absolutely identical which makes it 
sometimes difficult to get them synchronised over the whole rpm range. 
On a tuned engine it is complicated to get the needle profile and 
dashpot spring right from scratch.

On older cars with SUs you have the problem of spindle wear/false air, 
leakages and sometimes sticking pistons because of wear, dirt or 
vibrations. I had SU's on my Triumph Spitfire and worked on them for 
others on A-H, MG, Mini, TR, Sunbeamand on Strombergs (similar to SU) on 
TR5/6, Saab, Volvo, Jensen-Healey. Spindle wear was nearly always an issue.

A Double Weber/DellOrto set up has a barrel for each cylinder which 
makes for better breathing, no moving parts other than the butterflies 
and accelerator pump and its spindles are on sealed ball bearings so no 
wear/false air or leakage. They are very simple to set up on a rolling 
road if you are properly equipped specialist with a large choice of 
chokes and jets and once set up properly you do not have to touch them 
for a long time. Many clubs have information on the jetting and the 
venturies to be used. Failure of the diaphragm of the accelerator pumps 
is extremely rare. In more that 40 years it never happened to me.

The gas mileage for both a properly set up SU set or Weber/DellOrto set 
are very similar but Webers/DellOrtos perform better on full throttle 
and high rpm.

I have a double DellOrto DHLA set up on my car (J-H) and I have not 
touched them for years. If need be they are easy to balance without the 
need of vacuum gauges and even setting the idle mixture without CO meter 
or Colourtunes is easy enough if your ears are alright.

I think I solved the problem of accessing the carb mounting bolts. I have a 1/2inch distributor hold down bolt wrench. Probably from one of my dad?s GM vehicles from the 60?s.  It is a 1-2 inch box wrench. I cut it to convert it to an open end wrench. Then I reshaped it so it would fit into the limited space and angle. It seems to have worked. Will update when Inget the carbs off so I can verify the leak.

John,

Last month I had my tach rebuilt by West Valley Instruments in Reseda California. I had it done so that it would work with electronic ignition or points. It?s more expensive to rebuild for electronic ignition, IIRC $315 including return shipping. I think it is $285 to have it rebuilt for points. It becomes electronic pick up instead of induction pick up, i.e. the loop in the back of the tach is replaced by a single wire sticking out. You have to connect that single wire to the distributor side of the coil. I used the white w/ black tracer wire for the trunk battery master switch that grounds the points. I had to cut it off from the wire that it is paired with and add a spade connector to attach it to the other coil terminal. This wire has a junction right in front of the driver side of the firewall. I replaced the single Lucas connector with a double and tied the white wire from the tach into that wire and ran it through an existing grommet hole in the firewall. This connects the distributor side of the coil and the tach without adding a non-original looking wire to your harness. It grounds the tach when the battery switch is off, which of course is not a problem. My only complaint is that the tachometer needle seems to have a lot of dampening, but that shouldn?t really be an issue.

With electronic ignition the signal is not strong enough for the Tach to 
work correctly.  You will need to convert to Negative ground and have the 
tach modified to work with electronic ignition.

The joys of modifying the car. Sometime you modify something and then cause 
2 other problems.

Subject: [Healeys] Tach rebuild

Hi Listers:

The tach on  my BJ8 does not show the correct RPMs.  On a cool morning it shows what I believe is fairly close to the right numbers, but as the car warm, or the day warms, it reads higher and higher for the same speed.  I know it is not the clutch slipping.   I saw some articles in Healey Marque magazine showing how to rebuild and test them, but it requires a oscilloscope and some other specialized equipment I don't have, so I'm wondering if you guys have a recommendation for someone that might rebuild them.

I imagine there is also some info in the archives, but my antivirus software flags the archive site as a malicious website and doesn't want to let me access it.

Thanks for any info.

Keep looking for archive articles John.  I  recall that a very simple and

FWIW, I?ve had a Pertronix in my BJ8 for almost 20 years and my tach works fine. I did calibrate it once with the internal trim pot.

I may be late on this but just saw it last night for first time. ?"Wheeler Dealers" on Motortrend network is one of few shows on any network I make an effort to watch with regularity. ?I enjoy the low key dialogue between Mike Brewer and Ant Anstead. ?Its content is also interesting as I like the repair/resto theme each episode.Anyway last night Mike bought a 65 AH 3000 BJ8 MkIII. ?Paid 35k. ?He and Ant put 10k into it. ?Took it to Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale and the car brought $71000. ?It looked great and the upgrades were nice and well chosen. ?(I did not care for the selection of the all red interior for a BRG car however. ?Tan or maintain black would have been better IMHO). And to think of it, I would not have done the side exhaust either.Anyone else seen that episode?KeithPS. attached is recent picture of "Baby Car" my friend for 47 years.Am I the only one who names family vehicles? ?Drivers as well as collectibles.

This is the problem The tachometer may or may not work with a Petronix 
ignition. On my own car it works fine but on on of my friends one with 
exactly the same set up it does not. Why? No idea.

My youngest son could not pronounce Healey it came out Helium. Hence our BJ8  is Helium.

It's been so long--over 15 minutes--that I don't remember for sure, but 
I might have put an 'extra' loop in the pickup terminal. And I do recall 
the wire has to be oriented in one direction (not the other).

Keith,

Totally agree with the BRG with red interior.  Perfect for Santa to drive
around when the sleigh is in the shop, though.

Happy and Healthy Healeying,

I thought the upholstery work was a bit shoddy, too; it appears to be 
difficult to get a smooth fit at the bottom of the seat backs. The guy 
who did my BN2's seats said it was one of the toughest jobs he'd had, 
and he was 83 and had been doing car upholstery since he was 13 (had to 
drop out of school to help support his family).? And it didn't have the 
'checkerboard' pattern on the side panels, which I think adds some 
character to the interior of BJ8s, IMO (probably embossed, which might 
be hard to do with leather).

But, Mike and Ant's enthusiasm for the car, beyond mere patriotism, was 
endearing.

I was a bit sad at seeing the old original type boot rack junked. (At least put it in the boot?). Mine?s in the attic until I need it again!

And the SUs? dismissal did come as a bit of a surprise. Shiny new Webers of course, but ?new? means the Spanish ones which people ?say? aren?t so good. And was there any surgery to permit half way decent ram pipes and/or air filters??

However, they made good money. Lucky to find a fellow who was prepared to pay for a couple of minutes in the limelight??

And to think of it, I would not have done the side exhaust either.

Anyone else seen that episode?

PS. attached is recent picture of "Baby Car" my friend for 47 years.

Am I the only one who names family vehicles?  Drivers as well as collectibles.

Subject: [Healeys] clutch wanted
Message-ID: <004d01d6c369$0e3735d0$2aa5a170$@sympatico.ca>

Hi all,  A few years ago I had a slipping clutch on my BT7 and embarked on
changing the pressure plate, clutch disc and throw bearing.  The replacement
parts were from Borg & Beck, the EOM.  However, I had some serious problems
with the clutch disc as they had just changed the design of the cages that
retain the springs.  I had the g'box out and in again three times and was
getting very quick at it, although that is not a skill I ever wanted to
excel in.  In the end, I cleaned up the pressure plate and de-greased the
old clutch disc plate, and put the old stuff back in and it has been
functioning fine, albeit I know the pressure plate is still scored somewhat.
I am rebuilding the motor this winter and as I will dynamically balance the
rotating parts, I want to put a new pressure plate in so they can be
balanced together.  Although the problem with the clutch a few years ago was
not with the pressure plate, and I suspect B&B have fixed the problem with
the clutch disc as this seemed to be a unique problem, I still have a
preference for using an NOS pressure plate, or at least an older, but unused
replacement B&B pressure plate.  I have since secured an NOS clutch disc
(thanks Mike Salter!).

 

My question to the group is whether anyone has an older but new (i.e.,
unused) 10" B&B pressure plate that is surplus to needs and that they would
part with?

 

Many thanks for any help provided.

saw that car at barrett-jackson here in las vegas a few years ago.  engine looked good down to the botttom of the head 
then it looked like it needed lots of TLC.  i guess it was the webers that grabbed the attention, because john wilson had a 
beautiful BT7 he had restored and it only brought in the high 50s, IIRC.

Mirek, 

I can't help you with your pressure plate, but I do have a new Borg and Beck 9 inch pressure plate for an early BN1 if anyone is interested. 

Regards, 

Charlie

I believe that it is possible, at least in theory, to fit a more modern
diaphragm pressure plate on a BN1 or BN2. This gives a better 'feel' on the
clutch pedal. In theory, all it needs is a small modification to the
flywheel dowels and a longer reach carbon thrust bearing.

Has anybody actually implemented this modification?

Best regards

I took my Healey out for a late afternoon run of 40 highway miles. The temperature on the gauge stayed at 212 degrees until driving the last few miles so I switched on the fan which kept the temperature below 230 degrees. Drove the car into the garage and let it idle for a few minutes and turned it off. The temperature was over 230 degrees which is normal. I waited 5 minutes and tried to turn on the engine.  It groaned and suites downed and no electric functions. Since yesterday when turning on the ignition the fuel pump operates, but, when I engage the starter everything shuts down. I checked the 2 fuses and they are fine. Where do I begin to restore starting the engine.

Charge the battery!!! and check the dynamo/alternator for its proper 
functioning. Also check the starter relay and the earth strap connections.

212F (boiling point water) is way to high to see on the temperature 
gauge under normal conditions, not to mention 230F. It should be well 
below 190F0-200F depending on your thermostat. It would be wise to check 
the gauge for accuracy. It may be faulty as you do not mention any 
boiling.The actual boiling point of the coolant is higher because the 
anti-freeze/anti corrosion additives and also because of the pressure in 
the cooling system.

I would suggest, after checking the battery connections you connect a volt
meter between the power terminal on the starter and then check the voltage
that shows as you turn the key to the "start" position.
Do not hold the "start" position for more than a couple of seconds as
starter damage can occur.
The voltage should be around 10 VDC.
Report back.

check the voltage....*

Message-ID: <CAPAC+V6w9o6ssZCfoyGy1YehTWMVGyMUFJLPzEitMnWR9F2ZYw@mail.gmail.com>

Listers,

A few days ago, on one of the lists, there was discussion of a 66 BJ8
electronic tach that was not reading correctly after installing a Pertronix
ignition setup.  I just installed the Pertronix (points conversion) system
and coil and now the tach does not read correctly.  The comments mentioned
that tachs had to be rebuilt specifically for the pertonics conversion.
Several places that repair/rebuild/calibrate our Smiths tachometer with the
Pertronix ignition system were recommended.  As I put the car away for
winter, I would like to get the tach repaired/rebuilt/calibrated.  I have
lost those comments and therefore the links to those repair sources.  Can
anyone refer me to those services?

Thanks as always for the comments and wisdom,

Fred

You can try a few things. If there is an external loop in the feed (I 
think it is usually a white or yellow wire) you may remove or add one 
loop. Another trick seems to be to add two diodes in series between coil 
and tachometer. A bit more involved but very doable as a DIY person is 
to change the print board inside:


  Smiths RVI - RVC Tachometer conversion board + calibration cable -566-

www.eBay.com nr: 380578001095

Having the tach rebuild is way more expensive so it may be worth to 
experiment a bit with the above.

Since I was able to get a Pertronix to work with my BJ8's tach a lister 
asked for details on my install.? Last I heard, converting an electronic 
tach for use with a Pertronix costs $200-300, and the 'do-it-yourself' 
instructions are fairly complex, so I'm passing this along for general 
information.

*Disclaimer: This worked for me; maybe there's a 'trick,' or maybe I 
just got lucky. I did calibrate my tach once--to an external tach/dwell 
meter and confirmed with radar/gear ratio calculations--but I don't 
recall that it was related to the Pertronix install.*


In the engine bay, the white wire (12V) is spliced to the black lead 
from the Pertronix--pos. gnd. car and Pertronix--and the black/white 
striped lead goes to the -/SW terminal on the coil (the coil will work 
either way, but puts out a bit more voltage if it's properly wired). 
Note the Pertronix switches current to the coil 'upstream' of the coil, 
whereas points switch the current to ground 'downstream' of the coil. 
The white/black wire from the +/CB terminal on the coil is the ground; 
when the cutoff switch is in the 'on' position the coil is connected to 
ground, whereas on a points system the wire is switched to ground when 
the coil is in the 'off' position (current is shunted around the coil). 
You can switch the two small leads on the cutoff switch to accomplish 
this; I used a large ring crimp terminal as one of the terminals on the 
switch is larger than the other.

It's been years, but IIRC I had to cut the spade lug on the ignition 
switch in order to route it through the pickup. If you want, you could 
cut the wire, temporarily splice it together as you try out different 
routing, then permanently splice them together (the ignition switch on a 
BJ8 is a PITA? to get to, you have to pull the console).

The underdash photos show the inductive pickup on the tach. I forgot 
about the little 'clip' the wire goes through, that may be part of the 
secret to making the tach work. The white wire in the foreground is 
ganged-up on the ignition switch on the 'run' terminal, the other half 
of it goes into the wire loom and comes out as the white wire I've 
spliced to the Pertronix black lead in the engine bay.

I've included the schematic from the shop manual in case you don't have 
it. Remember not to leave the key in the 'run' position with power for 
more than a couple minutes; it will fry a Pertronix (Pertronix II/III 
have protection from this, but last I checked with Pertronix--about a 
year ago--they don't make the II/IIIs for pos. gnd.).

Listers,

BN1 gearboxes early up to #5145, late #5146 onwards.

Brought in two spare gearboxes to Eric Grunden (Absolutely British) to
rebuild my original.  While my original was around #7300, the two spares
were before #5146, however upon disassembly and inspection, both spares had
been converted to the newer gears decades ago.  I managed to sell one set
of gears to Eric, since he was also rebuilding an early gearbox for a Moss
Motors customer that had the early gears, and was toast... Win, win!

It always pays to check since you never know.

Cheers,

Curt

BN1 gearboxes have two specific angle cuts, so the correct input shaft
and mainshaft 4th (actually 3rd) gear must have the same angle
pattern. The revision of the A70 box was at GB # 5146 which used then
the later style sprial. I have that input shaft (NOS) on ebay
presently-pricy but correct. I also have some other gears that are
good for both boxes. If you get the wrong fit the gears will turn blue
in a short time. Hank

I agree with Kees. The temps seem very high. You didn?t mention oil pressure while this was happening. My first impulse would be to try turning the engine over manually to make sure the problem isn?t a spun bearing. Then check the starter, solenoid, power supply and low current circuit conditions respectively. I realize that the usual sequence is to work through the least expensive items first, but in this case damage can be done to the cheaper components if the more serious ones are not cleared first.

Sorry my suggestion should read:

Do not hold the "start" position for more than a couple of seconds as starter damage can occur.
The voltage should be around 10 VDC.
Report back.

I took my Healey out for a late afternoon run of 40 highway miles. The temperature on the gauge stayed at 212 degrees until driving the last few miles so I switched on the fan which kept the temperature below 230 degrees. Drove the car into the garage and let it idle for a few minutes and turned it off. The temperature was over 230 degrees which is normal. I waited 5 minutes and tried to turn on the engine.  It groaned and suites downed and no electric functions. Since yesterday when turning on the ignition the fuel pump operates, but, when I engage the starter everything shuts down. I checked the 2 fuses and they are fine. Where do I begin to restore starting the engine.

Also consider Speedy Cables in Wales .... they did a full conversion to a modern stepper motor dive in mine ... complete new movement ... even changed the lettering to neg earth. You do however need to run a new wire to the distributor. Very accurate and will not degrade with time ... no hairspring either.

Subject: [Healeys] Tach question Listers, A few days ago, on one of the lists, there was discussion of a 66 BJ8 electronic tach that was not reading correctly after installing a Pertronix ignition setup.  I just installed the Pertronix (points conversion) system and coil and now the tach does not read correctly.  The comments mentioned that tachs had to be rebuilt specifically for the pertonics conversion.  Several places that repair/rebuild/calibrate our Smiths tachometer with the Pertronix ignition system were recommended.  As I put the car away for winter, I would like to get the tach repaired/rebuilt/calibrated.  I have lost those comments and therefore the links to those repair sources.  Can anyone refer me to those services?    Thanks as always for the comments and wisdom, Fred66 BJ8

Considering all the different responses to the "Tach rebuild" question from 
John, it's like asking, "what's the best....".  Everyone has their own 
experiences.  I guess I was one of the lucky ones.  I installed my Pertronix 
in July of 2000.  There was no effect on the tachometer.  In June of 2004, 
my tach started reading incorrectly.  Based upon an article by Frank 
Filangeri (source unknown), "BJ8 Tachometer Reads High", I swapped out the 
capacitor marked ".2 uf" drilled a hole in the back of the case to access 
the adjustable pot on the back of the circuit board, and after reinstalling 
the tach in the dashboard, calibrated it to match an external tachometer. 
It has been running accurately ever since.

In the end, no matter how many badges there are on it identifying it as a Healey Fiesta, it is still just a modified Ford Fiesta, which was a pretty lousy car in its day.

Warren:  Most but not all of it.  I purchased the Healey in England in October, 1970, as the third owner.  It had 14, 640 miles on the odo.  The exhaust had been modified by removing the rear resonators and there is a metal bar behind the rear bumper that indicates that a European style tow bar had been installed.  Eventually I installed an American style tow bar to pull a catamaran or a trailer that I made from the rear half of a matching late model Healey.

It has seen a tow truck four times:  a suspected rear suspension problem (1992), a seriously damaged radiator (2012), repair of a bad bearing installation in a front wheel hub (my fault) (2013) and a failed clutch cylinder (2015).  I'm not counting the numerous fuel pump swaps, a series of coil deaths due to a poor electronic ignition system (Allison/Crane), leaky exhaust system repairs, and other minor mishaps that were overcome on the side of the road or at home in the garage.  I have always considered it a dependable vehicle ready to go anywhere, anytime.

Hoping to add a few more miles if I make it to Conclave in 2021.

  Lucky Len,

   

  Wow! Congratulations on your miles of smiles! Are all the miles under your ownership?

  High mileage Healeys are their own reward in my world. A trophy to you! This is what it is all about, DRIVING.

  PS: Thought my tach deserved a pro rebuild because the needle spent so much time zipping from 0 to redline the paint was bleeding off.

  I don?t do that anymore.

Len,
 I hope to see you at Conclave. My intent is to drive the Healey, but I now
own an enclosed car hauler, so it may not get here under its own power. I
have a number of folks to visit on my way back and will not be driving with
the gaggle of car heading from OR. Health as always may be a factor as well.
Take care my friend.

Jean, Isn?t that the same as some non Healey journalist describing the Healey 100 as a ?modified Austin a90 convertible, which was a pretty lousy car in its day??
The Healey Fiesta Is part of the DHMCo history. And as such, deserves some respect from Healey enthusiasts. 
Sincerely. 
Chris

 ?Add a 20A or 30A relay in the circuit and you will certainly be OK. In 
general an air compressor will not use an awful lot of Amps. It may well 
be that the switch you have is sufficient. A rough give away of the Amps 
used would be the thickness of the wires to the compressor.

Hello

 

Having enjoyed the hospitality of Charles Matthews, closely inspected his collection and written about it, I can recommend that if anyone is interested in collecting model Austin-Healeys should give the auction serious consideration.

I've ridden in the Healey Fiesta and stock Fiestas .... not the same car.
 Much like the difference between a Rabbit (Golf) and a GTI.  I wouldn't
kick it out of my garage and would be proud of the Healey Consultants
connection.

Healthy Healeying,
Rick Neville

Hi Keith, the compressor in my Carcamel
http://www.netbug.net/blogmichael/2006/11/29/the-car-camel/
Is a Viair 98C which draws a constant 12 amps while running.
I  use a small relay for switching.

Simon,

We met Charles at the Conclave in Kingston Ontario in 2009. Were able to 
give him a model that he didn't have yet.? It was a yellow Austin Healey 
Christmas tree ornament that we found at a Christmas shop in Niagara on 
the Lake on the trip to Kingston. One of our better halves told her 
husband that she was going in and see if they had an Austin Healey 
ornament.? Just a few minutes later she came out with one, and we all 
had to go in and buy a few.

Cheers,

Bob Haskell

Hank, you must have a totally different edition of Piggott's book to the
one I have.
Mine shows a poor picture of the choke abutment on pg 38 but there is not
enough detail to really figure out what it is.
I would caution against using pictures of the pre-production cars for
accurate information on production cars as there were many many differences.
I have worked extensively on AHX12 and AHX14 and learned a lot about these
differences.
The pic I sent:
[image: image.png]
Although Rich Chrysler did have the engine out of this car and the pic is
not very clear is definitely of the type that I have seen on many original
cars, particularly earlier ones.

While working on the boot lid f my BN2 restoration yesterday I suddenly thought, "where are the keys for this boot lid (new handle and barrel) and where are the keys for the ignition switch?? I have gone through all my parts containers, my gun safe and every drawer in my house.? They remain elusive.?? The ignition switch barrel is changed cheaply and easily enough, but can the lock barrel be changed out easily from the boot lid handle?? A new boot handle assembly costs way too much to replace.? Of course after I change out these locks the original keys will magically re-appear.? I just found a flasher unit I bought some time ago after buying a new one the other day.? Maybe I should organize my parts bins.Mike MacLean

Chris,
I certainly do not see the Healey 100 in the same light as an A90 convertible, completely different bodies, but I agree very similar engine. As far as the Fiesta is concerned, I am just wondering why, other than money, would DMH align himself with a Ford product that, at the time, was just an econobox, and not a very good one at that. As Rick Neville indicated, apparently it was a quick little car, I certainly never drove it, basically read the articles about it, first in Road & Track magazine.
Its rarity is not in question, I guess, for me it is so totally different that what we were used to see from the Healey family, especially being associated with a Ford product. At that time, the Japanese cars, such as the Datsun, Toyota and Honda were far better cars in that same configuration of models that to me, it would have better suited their image. I am glad someone likes it.
Cheers,

Jean

Jean, Isn?t that the same as some non Healey journalist describing the Healey 100 as a ?modified Austin a90 convertible, which was a pretty lousy car in its day??
The Healey Fiesta Is part of the DHMCo history. And as such, deserves some respect from Healey enthusiasts.
Sincerely.

All this model talk makes me want to share...

I had a business in the Netherlands custom build a 1:18 scale model of my Healey. Correct right down to the 48-spoke wire wheels. Enjoy...

Good looking car Darin

Likewise the model The black over red coves with the red interior always 
looks good.

Might get my BJ8 done in these colours if it is ever restored again as it 
was originally black with a red interior but know where as nice a colour 
combination as your car.

It's a gorgeous Healey day today down under here on Monday a balmy 74 * F 
( 23 * C ) suns shining and no wind and no Covid virus infections in 
Victoria for 38 days
straight > all's well with the world

Cheers mate

I think of the H-F as an oddity and of historic interest because it was
the last car that the Healeys made (but a shame, perhaps, that it was a
Ford!). I have no recollection of its handling.

Although I too never drove a Healey Fiesta, a friend had a Sunbeam
Talbot Lotus which was a very similar car in concept (fast hatchback
worked on by a well-known sports car company) with great performance as
I recall and good handling. It was a model of what a car might be that
in its turn led to things like the VW Golf GTi, whatever you think of them.

Regards,

Peter

These two cars are totally different and cannot be compared. The rwd 
Sunbeam/Talbot Lotus was developed from the Sunbeam Ti as a pure rally 
beast with the Vauxhall slant 4 derived 2.2 ltr Lotus 911 engine (an 
enlarged 907) and was very successful at that. Around 250hp in rally 
trim and 160hp in standard road trim. They are a hoot to drive thanks to 
the high power/low torque engine, the low weight and the short wheel base.

The US spec fwd Ford Fiesta was just jazzed up slightly with some small 
engine (80hp) and bodywork mods. Healey had very little to do with the 
car, he just lend his name for well needed cash. Only one was made 
versus around 2500 of the Sunbeam/Talbot Lotus cars.

re: "... They are a hoot to drive thanks to the high power/low torque 
engine ..."

I think that's a European take; Americans like torquey engines. Even my 
Mustang, with 480HP--and comparable max torque--and a 7,400RPM redline 
annoys me with its lack of torque below 3,000RPM (a bit of clutch 
slippage is required for launch). After over 13K miles with it, and 120K 
miles with a previous model, I still manage to stall it occasionally at 
launch; I never stall my grunt-heavy Healeys (you can pretty much dump 
the clutch at idle, it might ping a little but it'll crawl off). Maybe 
that's why Americans preferred Healeys over many high-strung European cars?

Many torquey pushrod engines are still in production and popular 
here--Chevy and Dodge come to mind--and, for better-or-worse, diesels 
are common where I live. Of course, drag racing is more popular here 
than elsewhere.

Kees,

Thanks. Do you mean that the car I linked to is the *unique* car? Didn't
realise that it was quite that unusual.

The Piggott book I have is 2012 edition. Here are the scanned photos
of AHX11 engine and choke fixing. Yes, as you say there are many
differences between them and the production as Bill noted here that
top of the carb suction plunger is round rather than hex. (at least
you can't wrench it too tight)
I do believe the choke fixing is as was done on the early production
cars. Using the short eye, so that it can fit between the fuel pipe
and the bracket, it could assemble as shown here and in your photo. I
did not have the short eye item...maybe you have a spare to correct my
car (built 10-53)? The one shown on Perry's car uses the longer eye
with a v-shaped pinch washer.(later config.) 
My notes say that AHX11, built 4-1-53, the Turin Show car, restored,
was auctioned in 2004 and appears on Healey Data.com, currently
located in Derby, UK

Hank, you must have a totally different edition of Piggott's book to
the one I have. 
Mine shows a poor picture of the choke abutment on pg 38 but there is
not enough detail to really figure out what it is.I would caution
against using pictures of the pre-production cars for accurate
information on production cars as there were many many differences.I
have worked extensively on AHX12 and AHX14 and learned a lot about
these differences.The pic I sent:Although Rich Chrysler did have the
engine out of this car and the pic is not very clear is definitely of
the type that I have seen on many original cars, particularly earlier
ones.

If you look in the book "Austin-Healey 100 in Detail" by Piggott on
pg. 50 is a good photo of the actual correct fitting as used on AHX11
(a Warwick car).
Note that, unlike the photo I sent you of my incorrect fitting, the
correct hardware is a stubby eye which goes thru the backside of the
bracket...being stubby it does not interfere with the fuel pipe and
then it is attached using a loctal nut and thick washer on the
outside. 
If this was in fact carried thru into production, it would be the
preferable connection to use. You must have that stubby eye or it
won't work. The one I had was too long to mount behind the bracket, so
I went with the clip.(see photo DSC02998.JPG [2])
Moss has the bracket between the two carbs 372-295 and an abutment
378-025 (but no photo of it). So I'm not sure that it is the item
needed...no illustrations shown for the choke mechanism. Not in the
shop book either.
I think I would go with the one shown in the Piggott book if you have
the correct parts. Hank

Charlie-that was the revision part. As you experienced, not having a
solid description, I winged the fitting a few times. Here are pictures
of the first tries. The clamp that squeezes on the outer cable was in
the wrong place. 
Both the one I sent, and the photo from Michael, go thru the bracket
in the correct direction and put the cable in the proper location,
vertically over the choke levers. The cable passes thru the eye on the
backside of the bracket. The clamp pinches the cable just enough to
hold it fixed while the inner cable can move.
The actual nut and washer differed on early to later cars. I think the
later cars used a loctal nut and the earlier used a thin BSF nut and
spring washer. You might check this description with Michael as well.
Regards, Hank

Thanks for the picture. How is the choke cable secured behind the
bracket?

Here is how it looks on an early 100-after three revisions-this is the

Would someone please send me a picture, or tell me where I can find
one, of how the choke cable connects to the carb levers. Thanks,

A bit to quick on the send button.

I love high revving engines. The best ones were the small Honda's in the 
60's like the S800, 4-carb 790cc DOHC all of 75hp at 8000rpm and in race 
trim quite a bit more at around 10.000rpm. Very fast on the track 
together with the Fiat Abarths and Mini Coopers of the time. Ran rings 
around the mustangs.

These cars are much better suited to European roads than heavy US iron. 
On long straight roads with a bad surfaces the US cars were on top though.

It culminated in the Honda S2000 of some years back.

Sara,

I will check and get back to you with the exact length, but for now I can
tell you that they are 1/4" BSF hex screws (fully threaded).  Most likely
3/4" to 7/8" in length...

This is copied from the attached Excel Spreadsheet of fasteners found on a
10K original mile Feb. 1955 built BN1.

Cheers,

Curt

Sara,

Correction, they may be bolts in that they are only partially threaded.

Sara,

Here is a modified version of the Excel Spreadsheet with all of the BSF,
BSW and one BSC threaded fasteners highlighted in three shades of green.

Note that it lists 15 bolts.

Sara,

Agreed about the length issue, it needs to be corrected.

Some sources for these are *Namerick, Ltd.* in the UK, and *British Tools
and Fasteners* in the USA New York.

https://britishfasteners.com/

https://www.namrick.co.uk/

Worse case, I can supply you with a full set of NOS black phosphated BSF
hex bolts/screws for the tappet cover.  I have plenty in stock.

FWIW, the ones you'll get from the two suppliers I mentioned will
most likely be zinc plated, so not 100% correct.

Cheers,

Curt

Kees,

I suppose you are right. A short look in Bill Emerson's, The Healey Book did show me that there was only one prototype built. 

Interesting: On the two pages about the Healey Fiesta Bill did write about an "Escort by Healey" too and there is a picture of postcard produced by Ford of America as the only known proof. Bill ends here: "Where is it now?"

Message-ID: <MN2PR13MB350373DCE9EA790E10389309B8F50@MN2PR13MB3503.namprd13.prod.outlook.com>

It has been thirty years since the last time I needed to do anything major on my BJ7 so my memory is not quite clear.  Can I remove the rear carb independently from the front carb? I have already designed a tool to access the lower hold down bolts.  If I remember correctly, I may have rebuilt and installed the carburetors when I rebuilt the engine, so access was not much of a problem.

Thanks

Lost Keys have been found!? They were on a key rack in my bedroom where all the important keys reside such as the padlocks for the solar panel inverters, sliding glass door locks and old railroad keys.? I looked at that rack at least three times looking for the BN2 Keys and did not see them hiding behind a ring of railroad keys.? I was in the middle of going through all the Home Depot plastic storage bins of parts looking in every bag or box in these containers.? On a positive note I did find parts that are needed on stuff I am presently working on.? On the other side of the coin I found multiples like two extra sets of copper tubing for the float bowl to the cold air box overflow.? Now parts are buried again for the next treasure hunt.? I really have to get more organized.Mike MacLeanP.S. I never realized how many fasteners I really have.

? Yes they do Rick.? Keys are mainly for switch locks.? There is a key for the back door of the cab.? You close and lock the front door from the inside and leave by the back door.? The caboose has door keys.? Even though the major railroads are not maintaining the caboose that are left, they use them for a shoving platform for a crew member to stand on and report to the engineer that is backing up a train when to stop or how fast to go.? I also have switch keys for Amtrak locks, UP locks and keys from the San Diego sub.? As a railroaded you have all kinds of keys.Mike M (former switchman, conductor and engineer on BNSF Railway)

I'm not sure you can remove only one carb. With the linkage and the length of the mounting studs you could bend or break something. Let us know if you are successful. And how did you get away with not doing anything for 30 years. You must have had it stored for 29 years.

It has been thirty years since the last time I needed to do anything major on my BJ7 so my memory is not quite clear.  Can I remove the rear carb independently from the front carb? I have already designed a tool to access the lower hold down bolts.  If I remember correctly, I may have rebuilt and installed the carburetors when I rebuilt the engine, so access was not much of a problem.

Thanks
