Thanks. I want to adjust my carbs and decided I needed to check timing and valves before I did that.

I haven't adjusted my BJ8 valves in a couple of years. In the past I have bumped the starter with the solenoid but that is really hit or miss. I have never been able to turn the crank on the front...

Its adjustable but the locking ring is on so tight I can't move it. I think it is reverse thread but not sure. I don't want to force it and make it tighter. The guy that restored it had never done a...

Question about Colortune. I have one but have not used it yet. Do you place it in the middle cylinder for each bank. Piston 2 and 5?

During restoration and a realignment of the front end, my steering wheel (Moto Lita) is off about 10 degrees. How complicated is it to actually get it straight. Can I pull the horn hub and move the...

Speculation on my part but the battery voltage can only be about 13 V to the ignition module unless there is another source somewhere. The voltage regulator should limit the voltage from he...

I have one of the MGB cars. I have owned it for almost 50 years (bought it in December, 1969). I never liked the color so I had it painted Healey blue a couple of years later. I bought the car in...

Bought my 1967 BJ8 on December 28, 1969, and on January 1, 1970, I drove it from Nashville TN to Long Beach CA in 3 1/2 days. Still have it and restored it about 10 years ago. So I am pushing 50...

What are the recommended spark plugs for my 67 BJ8. I think I had used NGK and Champions in the past. Are there any newer versions than what has been used for the last 40 years.

I have owned my BJ8 for 48 years. I bought it while in the Navy in 1969. My License tag is "MY YOUTH".

It was the reservoir leaking. I wasn't getting any smoke from the exhaust so I figured it must not be the servo. The fluid was leaking slowly from the 50 year old original reservoir at the bottom....

I drove the car about 10 miles after replacing the reservoir with several stops along the way. Brakes and clutch were basically no different than before. My instinct was that if I kept the lines to...

I lost very little fluid at the reservoir coupling. I never let the open end get below the MC and I asked the question because it seemed to me that air would not get to the MC. Also the reservoir is...

I have replaced my reservoir. Do I need to bleed both systems.Lines remained attached to MC's. I use silicone dot 5.

Are brake lights working. I had a similar problem and fuse looked good. It was old and filament intact but after removing it found the metal cap was loose and no connection. Just one other thing to...

I am losing fluid from the brake/clutch reservoir. Brake cylinders are dry. Can the booster leak internally and burn the fluid in the engine through the intake?

Drive it several miles after starting to get up to temperature and get the moisture out of the oil as well. I have heard at least 10 miles. Just starting it and running it for a short period is not...

I decided to wait until I can't tighten the lug any longer due to bad threads. So far, so good. Then I will pull the hub and replace all the studs. I wasn't sure where I could get a socket to pull...

Correct. Move back and forth on each side making sure the top material does not get pinched in the frame as you fold it down. Pull the corners away as you close the top. It usually takes me 2 or 3...

I was wondering if I managed to get the stud to clear the void between the hub and the rear brake cover when removed,then I could pull the stud back into place by pulling it into place by tightening...

I have a canvas top and mine will do the same thing unless I do the following. I leave the top about half up. I then go to each side and I pull the top material away from the area where it get...

I have a GR starter that I bought a few years ago direct from Gustusfan (sp?). It included an adapter plate with it. I am waiting until I really need to replace my starter (it is still turning over...

Can the rear wheel studs be replaced without pulling the hub? Are they pressed in? I know they are splined and could probably be knocked out from the wheel side but not sure if I could get a new one...

I used Aircraft Paint Remover on the fenders when off the car. I bought some recently at Advance Auto for another project. Do it outside and use 2 layers of gloves with no skin showing. Be ready to...

Thanks for the info. I figured that moving the trafficator shaft and moving to the correct spline location might be the solution. Seems I have read that there is an olive on the end of the shaft...
