I have a 1960 BT7 Austin Healey with an after market hard top.
*Problem:* Right hand door unlatches ( only one step) at random. Do not
have the same problem with the drivers door.
*Solutions tried. * tried moving the B pillar latch so as to make it close
easier. Didn't help. Tried to move the B pillar latch closer to the door
latch by using more shims. That didn't work because I couldn't shim it any
more.
When the door is closed in the garage it is LATCHED. There is no way
that I have found that will allow me to shake, rattle or pull extra hard to
get it open. Yet it unlatches properly. When driving and it "pops" open
it still stays latched pretty hard on the second latch stop for the
duration.
*Question:* Is there a way to adjust the door latch, it is new from Moss,
with in the door? Is there a way to adjust the "pin" in the latch so it
would sit deeper into the B pillar latch?
I know I shouldn't complain because it is an easy way to get rid of a
mistress - take a sharp left at speed and hope she flys out???
But one should not try this with a wife!! *So does any one have any
suggestions????*
Thanks................ Al
