Sorry to say that David Anton, owner of APT passed away in May.  He was a
brilliant tuner of A-series motors.

A couple of years ago I wanted to put a pair of K&N air filters on my
Healey. I was referred to Dave at APT. He knew exactly what was required
and put together custom K&N kits at a fair price. Until I contacted Dave I
was having no luck finding the right parts on my own.

He was a very knowledgeable resource.

Some oldtimers here may recall that I tried to put together an order for 
a batch of K&N filters for BJ8s. On BJ8s, the front filter has to fit 
partially under the shroud; Dave fabbed a prototype with the hole high 
in the backplane so the filter would sit low enough to fit. He sent me 
the prototype, along with a couple 'stub stacks' that fit inside and I 
promptly started enlisting buyers on this list. I had 15 or so owners 
lined-up but, unfortunately Dave's wife was injured in a car crash and, 
well, he lost interest (understandably). He never asked for payment, and 
he was exceedingly pleasant to deal with.

Gary,

Sorry, I don't have a part# for the filter; the housing was provided by 
Dave and is a one-off. K&N has a comprehensive selection of filters, not 
knowing what kind of housing(s) you have I would measure diameter and 
depth and find a suitable filter on the K&N website.

Bob

Message-ID: <CAFP1XCBqobWxMXWcYB3tUcN_x67bbPy8ez7t8nnbxixpHDc1pg@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

Are there any tips or suggestions on how to remove the aluminum trim from a
hard top without damaging it? All the screws are out but there is a hard
black caulk still holding the trim. It doesn't seem to soften with a heat
gun.

Thanks... Harold

Harold -

Have you tried a handheld pressure steam cleaner?  They can be pretty
effective for this type of thing.

Newer windshields are glued in place? with caulk; I've seen things like 
this used to cut them out.

Harold--

I assume you were not the person who applied the AL pieces and do not know
the name of the adhesive.  However it would be helpful if you could
determine the brand as knowing that might lead you to a specific product
that will in some way break the bond or attack the sealant's integrity,
etc. Perhaps a PO might have this information.

In my boating days I learned the hard way to not use an *adhesive* sealant
when there was no need for anything but a sealant.  3M makes superior stuff
but it took me a while to learn when to use 101 and when to use 5200.
Luckily they also made a solvent that would break the bond chemically in a
non-destructive manner and perhaps you can find such a product.

Best--Michael Oritt

Thanks for all the tips. The black caulk is the original from 1960 and
unknown but it is hard and brittle. I have access to a tool similar to the
one Jean recommended and will use it in combination with WD40. I will post
an update on the success or failure.

Thanks... Harold

Seems interesting but non-hardening Hylomar worked for me.

I would thing the gasket would not be needed because of the O ring.

The gasket might prevent the o-ring from grabbing as the plug is tightened.

Don, can you tell if the new one is the same material as the original?? 
Are the flanges the same thickness?? I wonder if machining a groove in 
an original one would weaken it too much. Would think so.

Lubrication is commonly applied to O-rings to prevent grabbing and ease installation. It might be possible to use a fat O-ring on the plug without machining a grove, but I am very uncertain about that. This is a picture from sprinkler manifold.

Can you provide the K&N part # for the filter?

Some oldtimers here may recall that I tried to put together an order for a batch of K&N filters for BJ8s. On BJ8s, the front filter has to fit partially under the shroud; Dave fabbed a prototype with the hole high in the backplane so the filter would sit low enough to fit. He sent me the prototype, along with a couple 'stub stacks' that fit inside and I promptly started enlisting buyers on this list. I had 15 or so owners lined-up but, unfortunately Dave's wife was injured in a car crash and, well, he lost interest (understandably). He never asked for payment, and he was exceedingly pleasant to deal with.

He was a very knowledgeable resource.

The gasket might prevent the o-ring from grabbing as the plug is tightened.



Don, can you tell if the new one is the same material as the original? Are the flanges the same thickness?  I wonder if machining a groove in an original one would weaken it too much. Would think so.

Message-ID: <CAFP1XCCG0keXMR7T8-COgJD9fN0rV0nG6i+6ULtFkbuFBga5LQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I was able to get the aluminum trim off my 65 year old top. I used all of
the suggestions and have these comments.
The black caulk is very brittle after 65 years and will separate from the
aluminum when persuaded. I used an oscillating multitool about every 4" per
Jean's recommendation. It didn't move the aluminum too much but it helped
to break the bond with the black caulk. Next step was a piece of 1x3 wood
and hammer gently tapping along the edge of the aluminum until it was free.
I tried a few solvents but the aluminum fits so tight the solvents can't
penetrate. I did use a heat gun but not sure if it helped. It would have
expanded the aluminum a bit which may have helped break the bond with the
caulk.

Hope this helps the next person to take apart a hard top.

Harold

It was sent to AHCA members and not to this list, which is a good thing, so I'm thinking someone got into the AHCA data base and sent out these blanket emails. And it should go without mentioning, but I will anyway, never click on a link within an email that comes from a questionable source. Finding out of this was actually from AHCA should be the first step. Be careful out there folks!

Actually it was sent to the list, but mailman flagged it as possible

chucked in the dustbin, so to speak when I read it.

I have not been able to view a pic of the car in question.
Can someone please post it or tell me where I can see it?

Evening,
Just got my '65 BJ8 back from an extended stay at a body/paint shop. Old English white with a red interior. It looks great.
Problem is, I ran out gas. ?My trip Odo said 98 miles, I can usually go around 150 and, talking to a friend, he said he can go 200 miles on a tank.
The car seems to run fine, not missing, no black smoke.
Any ideas why my milage dropped 30% and should I be getting 200 miles on a fill-up?
I don't smell gas in the garage, but I will be checking for leaks in the morning.?

What did your gas gauge indicate?

Over 150K miles and 3 engine builds, my BJ8 has gotten:

- 23-24 MPG highway (55-65MPH)

- 18 MPG highway (65MPH+)

- 15 MPG city/stop-and-go

Gee Greg,

I usually get 200 miles to a tank of gas. I have a Toyota transmission and a 354 rear end.

I bought it with 77,000 miles and I now have 122,770 miles. To my knowledge the engine has never been rebuilt.

Hi Greg -

You might want to check the bottom of your HD8s and make sure it isn't
leaking fuel.  Do you smell fuel?  If you do it probably means the jet
diaphragms have failed from sitting in the paint shop too long.

Alternatively check for sticky choke levers.

Best,

Alan

Hi Greg,  I regularly get over 20 mpg in my BT7, so something is wrong.  If what you are saying that you only got 98 miles on full tank of gas, something is seriously amiss.  Is it possible that when your car was in the shop some fuel was drained from the tank for some reason?

I like the (dried out/split) diaphragms theory. I don?t know what your spray shops do but ours, UK, almost bake the new paint onto the car. ie the car sits in a hot and very dry environment.

We bought a BJ8 over to France from North Virginia. The car hadn?t run for a while, quite a while at a guess. We took the train down to the port and got to the car. First off, it was an absolute pig to start and, when it did finally run after a jump start from an electric fork lift(!), it wouldn?t keep going without a lot of throttle. Rush hour in Paris was a nightmare but we got it home. Next day, we switched on the ignition and fuel was absolutely peeing out of the carbs. The run from port to garage seemed to have exacerbated the issue. Anyhow, two new diaphragms sorted it.

Subject: [Healeys] Gas Milage

 

Evening,

 

Just got my '65 BJ8 back from an extended stay at a body/paint shop. Old English white with a red interior. It looks great.

 

Problem is, I ran out gas.  My trip Odo said 98 miles, I can usually go around 150 and, talking to a friend, he said he can go 200 miles on a tank.

 

The car seems to run fine, not missing, no black smoke.

 

Any ideas why my milage dropped 30% and should I be getting 200 miles on a fill-up?

 

I don't smell gas in the garage, but I will be checking for leaks in the morning.

Hi All 
      I installed the new OD brass drain plug with the o ring and so far ??not a drip of oil anywhere. I think it?s a great design by Cape International. 
I did see someone posted about eliminating the od switch on the firewall and just needing to use the switch on the dash . No more needing to Blip the throttle to activate the od . Could that someone please explain the wiring needed to make this change . It sounds like another modern up grade to make our driving experience easier. 
      Thanks as always , Don

I know others will not agree, but I never liked that O/D cut-out on the firewall, neither did the previous (first) owner of the car.  He shorted it out and although I tried it for a few weeks I re-installed the jumper to take it out of the O/D circuit.  It is easy just connect the two terminals with jumper wire, the photo says it all.  I have run mine like that for 50 years.   I will add that I treat the O/D like and other gear and use the clutch when engaging and disengaging it, and blip the throttle on a downshift (dis-engage).  I think it just reduces the stress on the O/D.

Cheers, Mirek

As explained to me Dave Twigger the purpose of the kickdown switch is to
prevent the overdrive unit being subjected to reverse torque which it is
not designed to handle.
As I  understand it, if the overdrive is treated with respect, and the
clutch is used during disengagement there will be no problems but, if you
flip the switch off when cruising at high speed without using the clutch to
minimize the reverse loading on the overdrive, the planetary gear assembly
can be severly damaged.
The kickdown switch prevents this.

Michael, 

Yes, agreed. He said the same to me in a discussion as to why Triumphs don?t have the kickdown whereas the Healeys do. Actually that wasn?t long after your visit.

(Dave Twigger is pretty much The Man in the UK overdrive world. So far as I recall, his father-in-law bought all the overdrive spares when Laycock stopped manufacturing. Or something like that. Bit like Fred at AH Spares? He?s a nice guy, very helpful.)

Note the kickdown can be used to, uh, kick down. Say you're following 
slow traffic in top/OD, and you see a chance to pass coming up; you 
throw the dash switch and when it's clear you stomp on the accelerator 
pedal, the O/D will disengage and you're in a lower gear to pass. 
Doesn't work great--I usually drop a gear too--but it's doable. Note 
older cars with automatics usually have them, rigged to the throttle 
linkage.

Triumphs, and others, also have a beefier accumulator for faster 
engagement (a mod sold by DWM and others).

I'm wanting to have my 1965 BJ8 steering box refurbed?
My mechanical prowess is the ability to unbolt something, send it out to have fixed, and bolting it back on.
Who's the guy who rebuilds Healey steering boxes?
Do I need to send the entire steering column(s)?
If not, Can I remove just the steering box from the car or does the whole column ?need to come out?
If so, How the heck do I ship an entire steering column?
I live in Connecticut 40 ?minutes from NYC.

Well, in my opinion, it?s a bit like fitting a lightened flywheel?..you notice and appreciate it at first but then you get used to it and it?s as if it was always there. If you see what I mean! 

I?ve got both, like them both but pretty much forget what it was like before I made the changes. Having said that, I would say that, if you?re digging around in the OD, you may as well put in the modern equivalents?.beefier accumulator etc. Easy for me to say, over here in the UK, but I?d contact Dave and tell him what you want to achieve and ask him what you need. Then, with what I think is a decent exchange rate, buy it from him.

Doesn't work great--I usually drop a gear too--but it's doable. Note older cars with automatics usually have them, rigged to the throttle linkage.

Triumphs, and others, also have a beefier accumulator for faster engagement (a mod sold by DWM and others).

As explained to me Dave Twigger the purpose of the kickdown switch is to prevent the overdrive unit being subjected to reverse torque which it is not designed to handle.

As I  understand it, if the overdrive is treated with respect, and the clutch is used during disengagement there will be no problems but, if you flip the switch off when cruising at high speed without using the clutch to minimize the reverse loading on the overdrive, the planetary gear assembly can be severly damaged. 

The kickdown switch prevents this.

Greg,

The steering box and column are all one piece and must be removed together.
May I ask why you would like refurb the steering box? Leaking seals, sloppy
steering, or ???. If it is sloppy steering try adjusting the thrust screw
on top of the box first. A good choice for a repair shop is a place that
repairs heavy duty truck (i.e. highway truck) steering boxes. The AH
steering box is very similar in design and there should be shops that do
this work near you.

Harold

The steering box for your Healey is the same as my BT7. The steering column housing is solder into the box. It can be removed but it is something you probably don?t want to do because it can be difficult to solder back on and get a complete seal. The reason I know this is a had the box and column powder coated and the powder coat melts about the same temperature as solder and I had to resolder the column with a higher temperature solder and have it powder coated again.

 

You need a long box to ship it. ? You should be able to find one, if not get a box and a tube for the column and assemble one.

I'm wanting to have my 1965 BJ8 steering box refurbed?

 

My mechanical prowess is the ability to unbolt something, send it out to have fixed, and bolting it back on.

 

Who's the guy who rebuilds Healey steering boxes?

 

Do I need to send the entire steering column(s)?

 

If not, Can I remove just the steering box from the car or does the whole column  need to come out?

 

If so, How the heck do I ship an entire steering column?

 

I live in Connecticut 40  minutes from NYC.

I had my OD rerouted to the gear lever a la rally cars. Much more 
comfortable to use. Never did like having to reach for the switch.

Wired in parallel so the dash switch is a backup.

Hi Greg:
A former Club member had his 100-6 stolen out of his driveway a short time ago. He has a brand-new Dennis Welch steering box that he was going to instal in his car.
Since he no longer has the car and the options for it?s recovery all virtually nil, he will be selling the steering box as well as pile of other new parts.
I mentioned to him that you were looking at rebuilding your steering box. With your permission I can forward your email address to him ? if you would be interested in a total replacement of the box rather than a rebuild.. I have no idea of the price involved. If you were interested, you can work that out between yourselves.
Do you want me to give him your contact info?

Subject: [Healeys] Steering Box Refirb.

I'm wanting to have my 1965 BJ8 steering box refurbed?

My mechanical prowess is the ability to unbolt something, send it out to have fixed, and bolting it back on.

Who's the guy who rebuilds Healey steering boxes?

Do I need to send the entire steering column(s)?

If not, Can I remove just the steering box from the car or does the whole column  need to come out?

If so, How the heck do I ship an entire steering column?

I live in Connecticut 40  minutes from NYC.

BJ8
I need to remove the speedo cable from my BJ8 - not just the inner  but the
complete cable at the rt angle drive.
So, wondering if the more experienced could comment if this can be done
from downstairs without removing the GB cover ?
Any thoughts, ideas or tricks appreciated.

Roger,  No experience with the BJ8, but likely the same as my BT7, and I have removed the complete cable before without removing the gearbox cover.  It is a real fiddle as it is obscured by the cruciform in the frame.  I seem to recall I used some long needle-nose pliers and could just get enough grip on the knurled ?nut? that holds the cable onto the angle drive to undo it.  I don?t think I removed the angle drive, but in truth can?t recall.  It was painstaking as I could only rotate the knurled piece a tiny bit at a time.  In the end, it may have been less frustration to remove the cover.  However, it worth a try.  Good luck with it!

Removing the GB cover is generally pretty easy, I would just take it off.
Probably only 15 min worth of work, just about the same amount of time
you'll spend putting it on a lift.

Cheers,

Alan
