Roadside failures, I've had a few problems including the jet assembly
rubber going bad and causing gas to drip on the muffler which is very scary.
I've
got a hole in a float, so I put the float on a stove at low heat, steamed the
gas out, and fixed it by sealing with JB Weld. Carb screen have become
clogged, and needles have become loose.
Fuel pump, condenser, headlights, clutch, and coil have gone bad, I've
knocked off the muffler several times, had 5 or more flat tires and wiring
shorts.
Last year the gearshift rubber cover got a big hole so I used the head of a
toilet plunger to keep the heat out till I got it replaced. I've never had to
tow my Healeys in 37 years. Club members have saved me on several occasions.
Hopefully you will publish your Tech Session materials for those that will
not have the pleasure of hearing it live.
