  • Re: Lumpy Performance

    Motorbill: Thanks for your response. I made the measurements you suggested this morning and sent a reply. However I do not see the post so let me try again. I am not too good at navigating this site.   I made the pressure and volume measurement at the output of the in-line fuel filter and with the engine off. I recently charged the battery. ...

  • Re: Lumpy Performance

    Mac: Thanks for the response. Several of your comments on timing and the Pertronix distributor may be right on. The difficulty did begin with my changing the distributor but I have been wanting to blame something I did rather than the new distributor. I sent an email to Pertornix to get an advance curve but got no answer. I have measured the ...

  • Lumpy Performance

    First let me describe the problem and then I will give the engine particulars. My problem is very “lumpy” performance below 2000 RPM. Acceleration and deceleration are fine but the car does not smoothly hold a constant speed. Above 2000 RPM the performance smoothes out but remains irregular. It acts like there are ”bumps” in either the engine ...

  • Engine Knock and low oil pressure problem

    Dear Techs,   I am a new owner of my first MGB 1969.  I have it for about 3 years.  It has a supposibly newly rebuilt motor which runs strong. I have read all posts, but cannot find the answer I need.   The problem:  While idling and at a stop I noticed the oil light would come on and it would want to stall ...

  • Replacement Seatbelts for '72 MGB

    Hey Posters, I'm looking for a direct bolt-on replacement for seatbelts in my '72 B. It seems most of the aftermarket stuff fits only '73 and later or requires welding a second mount to the wheel arch. Anyone have any suggestions?   Thanks in advance, MattInSoCal

  • Marty's Garage - Video Podcast

    Hi Everyone, A few months ago I started doing a weekly podcast on the restoration of my 1973 MG B. Prior to the purchase of the car I had little to no automotive experience with the exception of a 2 cycle engine class I had in high school(which was forever ago). Well I've always wanted an MG B and I wanted to learn more on what makes a car ...

  • Tacho

    Hi. Have just bought a 1970 B. The tacho jumps from 0 to full scale when the ignition is turned on but the starter not yet engaged. It randomly jumps from side to side. After starting it jumps randomly around where it should be reading. Sometimes it flicks around 3 or 4 thousand RPM! Any ideas?

  • Bedliner in the Cockpit - Help, all you restorers!

    So, my cockpit is all stripped to the bare metal - I've removed the bulk of the surface rust with a wire brush - I then applied $40 worth of POR-15 products, including the Marine-Clean (cleaner/degreaser), Metal-Ready (a metal prep/sealer product), then two coats of POR-15 rust preventive primer ...
