Jerry is correct. 2500rpm in OD is only 55mph. At that speed I leave it in 4th regular, where it does about 3000rpms. 66 in OD = 3000rpm. So it's 22mph/1000rpm. Tyson

How does the MGA heater valve compare to that of the MGB? Mine was a piece of junk also, but I got a free replacement (not from moss). Mine was in a cardboard box, but country of origin is unknown.

Mine rattled like that (under load in 2,3,4 gears) because I changed the spark plugs to longer ones (incorrect ones were in at the time). Fiddling with the timing got it back to normal. You haven't p
