Hey forum,
I recently brought home my dad's MG midget 1970 (1275cc) and I'm hoping to
get it running and fixed up. I've been quickly going through all the
interior stuff, but thats not my real problem.
The car sat in my grandparents barn for 26 years with no starts or anything.
Right now, the electrical system works (surprisingly enough!), and we have
dash lights, horn, etc. all good. When i turn the ignition, the engine lets
out a loud click, and nothing happens.
I'm going to get together with some friends tomorrow and do general
maintenance, (oil, carbeurators, fuel, etc.) but does anybody have any ideas
as to where i might start with this?
I have access to basically any tool you can imagine, and my plan right now
is to *carefully* rebuild the engine. I'm thinking that it is seized up from
the inside pretty good after a long wait.
Thanks for any ideas,
-Kyle Werner
