I've driven MG's for 30 years and I've always used 20W motor oil or ATF in SU's. I've never had a problem (at least with carburetor dashpots). Don Scott

I have owned MG's for 30 years. For any car, but especially for ones with marginal coolling systems like MG's, I recommend that you use about 30% antifreeze and 70% distilled water and Red Line coola

To other MG folks: I have had MG's for a long, long time. However, as I get older, I find that my interests are gravitating towards Japanese cars- I drive a Miata every day to work and it's soooo muc

Sorry, PK, but I don't agree. The new Mini should get the Ultimate Ugly Award. It's not even cute. It is in fact the most hideous looking thing on four wheels I've ever seen. If I were a doctor deliv
