My 74 Midget's (Gan5) engine (US car) is painted black, while the car itself is maroon which I know was not the original color. It seems that the original color was an unattractive olive green (still

Cool list - and I consider myself duly chastised for my "list" listing. Now maybe we should help David Langton "subscripe". David beware the humor on this list. Tom Wannenburg

This is an interesting problem. The fact that only the front brakes are affected is probably a clue - clearly there is a one - way valve effect somewhere in the front system. Assuming that the rear b

There is nothing like doing some body work to stimulate the imagination to think of ways to not have to do it again. I have noticed first hand, and had it confirmed by others that MG's don't rust in

Thanks for the follow - up. I was thinking more in line with preventing body rust. What on the engine did you spray exactly, and what is the benefit? Did you take pains to avoid rubber parts or do th

I think your friend is wrong. He does have a point in that arc welded joints (MIG is a form of arc welding), are stronger than the regular steel but are more brittle and cannot flex to absorb impact

I just (1 week ago) purchased one of those. It seems rather nice. I have never welded before, but I read the manual, watched the video, set it up for MIG welding with argon and went to it. I haven't

Not to belabor a subject, but the thread on anti - freeze seems fairly important. Anti freeze is so toxic, and rapidly absorbed, that just one swallow of pure anti - freeze can result in toxic levels
