When my coworkers were grumbling I often reminded them of a philosophy I adopted years ago: 'Point Forward Thinking'.B There's nothing we can do about the past so why let it stress us?! Think about what we're going to do from this point forward. I'm going to the garage. Today I hope to continue to prepare my TD's body tub for paint. Specifically, I'm going to brush paint the inner surfaces of the tub, just to seal the bits of bare metal from moisture. The exterior is ready for paint but we're experiencing a week of off-and-on rain so our B south-coast humidity has been even higher than usual! Proper painting is out of the question. Here's how things set this morning. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/20130930_165653.jpg The battery box looks a little rough inside but it is sound. I have a nice, new battery tray and I'll cement a strip of rubber around the top of the box at the height of the battery top. I know that's not 'correct' but it does make a nice backing to which the battery is snugged by the clamp. It will also hide some previously damaged metal. Tool box will get a new felt lining, after paint. On to the garage!

I have included this picture so you can see the weakness of the spray job. Full disclosure, you see. Across the rear of the tub, an inch or two below the edge, you can see where I didn't in-fill some surface rust damage. The metal is sealed with POR15 and primered but I did not do a smooth surface prep. Why? Because this area is covered by the top of the fuel tank - and I can have moments of extreme laziness. You can also see a 'run' near the left tank strap mount. If this flaw can't be corrected with a 'run cutter' and polish, I'll sand it down and respray this spot. Honestly, the spot is mostly behind the spare so I may lazy-out and do nothing. :-P The wood behind the tank is painted with satin finish Rusoleum black paint. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/20131010_072236e.jpg -rick ______________________________________________ Mg-t@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive From mg-t-bounces@autox.team.net Thu Oct 24 15:10:30 2013 Return-Path: Delivered-To: mharc@autox.team.net Received: from 50-198-190-17-static.hfc.comcastbusiness.net (localhost [IPv6:::1]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 065FE43212 for ; Thu, 24 Oct 2013 15:10:30 -0600 (MDT) Delivered-To: mg-t@autox.team.net Received: from mail-vb0-f48.google.com (mail-vb0-f48.google.com [209.85.212.48]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9A5874304D; Thu, 24 Oct 2013 14:41:00 -0600 (MDT) Received: by mail-vb0-f48.google.com with SMTP id w16so1637211vbf.7 for ; Thu, 24 Oct 2013 13:40:02 -0700 (PDT) h=mime-version:date:message-id:subject:from:to:content-type; bh=5mTKMK5MblteD9sW7VpQ85zv1rNW+wjdCYDFJGhOKqY=; b=ZdxvzIgQ06R3GFN8O+R/0V89xPJTwNud31l3+HY9lHS46m86Um7zPN15gAK2Xqi8iy +SIUtH8npqw3zBYpEsKT/glmEKVgYDyhAN9qFPR/N3wm14lxLNq3jmCtrBhjzIFyER3V osRRqnWrU7sLNn2AqJb5pyExle0ccyd+1JTym2pDZ+ICXvMQ+7RrAGyodmxcWTexAKtf 3ri47K/2p1qgCogRSg0P5oNpZJi43PyQHMdOGAlTv6YIl71LHWeRHqVG6TyLDQrX2q3k ehJesGfM3OpCSk6reUdr/hmx4vkSDJQ+KBS+ftWzLdNtSFOjqFvkewjNacQ21MIgWwon d0Bg== l10mr2388228vcf.32.1382647202012; Thu, 24 Oct 2013 13:40:02 -0700 (PDT) Received: by 10.58.152.174 with HTTP; Thu, 24 Oct 2013 13:40:01 -0700 (PDT) Date: Thu, 24 Oct 2013 15:40:01 -0500 From: Richard Lindsay To: "mg-t@autox.team.net" , "mgs@autox.team.net List" Subject: [Mg-t] Mini-update on the TD Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: mg-t-bounces@autox.team.net Hi Friends, Been out of town AND have been working on the 1800ES since I got back - until yesterday. Today, however, I did get a little work done on the M.G.. Today I bolted the front of the tub to the chassis and I installed grommets in the firewall. After that I installed the speedometer and tachometer cables and bolted in a few more things. Here's how things look now. First of all, the steering column has been reinstalled. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1415.JPG Hardware bolted in place. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1417.JPG http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1418.JPG I bolted the new battery in place, ready for cables. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1419.JPG Here's the starter switch. Notice the grommet through which the cable will exit. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1420.JPG The rebuilt fuel pump is remounted on fresh rubber vibration isolators. Most applications I've seen show the turn signal flasher on the inside of the firewall. Mine was on the outside when I got the car so I mounted the new unit as I found the old one. Its an easy change if needed. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1421.JPG Over on the other side, the tachometer cable is now through the firewall grommet. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1452.JPG Here's a similar view on the other side of the firewall. The horn is now also mounted. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1453.JPG http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1454.JPG I tested and adjusted each horn when I rebuilt it, so all should be well. Still, its easy access to wire the horn AND to adjust, if required. Here's a view of the engine now awaiting the wiring harness. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1455.JPG The harness is upstairs in storage. While working on the M.G., I have also been preparing the Volvo 1800ES for paint.

Fun. Glad I spent an hour with the schematic last evening! A day or three ago I posted a note with a link showing the regulator, fuse block, etc.. Here it is again. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1452.JPG The camera's electronic flash buggers the paint color but that's unimportant. Of importance in the picture is the fuse block. Its mounted upside-down! No one commented or corrected me. Perhaps they didn't notice. Perhaps they didn't care. No matter. Its fixed now. Over on the other side, next to the fuel pump, I had mounted the turn signal flasher. That's where it was when I got the car. So I put it back there. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1453.JPG When I examined the new harness, I realized that there were no wires for the flasher on that end of the harness. They were over by the fuse block, so I moved the flasher to the other side. I also discovered that the harness design expected the turn signal relay-box to be on the firewall, not in the cockpit. The harness wires will not reach the correct (for my car) location. I did however, route the wires inside the cockpit but haven't decided whether to splice wire into the eight leads, or just move the relay-box to another location, if that is even possible. I won't mount it in the engine bay. Here's how that area looked wired, but before mounting the horn. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1457.JPG And after. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1458.JPG The grommet below the horn is there to protect the coolant temperature tube, as it exits the firewall. I connected the harness ground to the body using the hole provided, and connected the white coil lead to the 'SW' coil terminal. There was no wire included with the harness kit for the white-black wire from the coil (CB) to the distributor - so I made one. I attached ring terminals on a white wire and shrunk heat shrink tubing at the connectors. Then with a Sharpie, I added a black stripe from end-to-end. Yea, that's silly, but so am I. Here's how it looks. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1459.JPG Sadly, the black stripe doesn't show in the pictures. Here's another look. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1462.JPG Here is a close-ups of the wiring, illustrating the color codes. I hope someone can use this first picture. I searched the web for an hour trying to find one clear picture of the color codes for the later generation regulator. Yes, I have the schematic but photographic confirmation would have been nice. Here is the picture. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1463.JPG And here is the flasher with wiring. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1464.JPG Moving forward, the last connections made are at the generator. Here's how they look. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1461.JPG http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/HPIM1460.JPG And that's it for the morning. I popped in for lunch and to send you this note. I now need to clean up the garage. It is a MESS. With TWO cars now being tweaked (the M.G. and the Volvo 1800ES), there are lots of parts floating around. I don't want to get them mixed up or I could end up with a TD speaking Swedish!

Here's a look at how they now fit. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/20131028_112257.jpg No, the doors haven't been painted yet, but when remounted, the alignment is really good. Here's another picture of the cockpit with various bits being reinstalled - some for alignment purposes (like the mirror), some for final installation. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/20131028_112203.jpg Ages ago, I posted a picture (link) of the throttle linkage showing the throttle return spring attached to the exhaust header. A kind listmember pointed out that the location was wrong, and that the spring should be anchored to the starter. Will someone please tell me how and where the spring attaches, and even provide a picture, if possible? Thanks. -rick ______________________________________________ Mg-t@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive From mg-t-bounces@autox.team.net Mon Oct 28 14:43:47 2013 Return-Path: Delivered-To: mharc@autox.team.net Received: from 50-198-190-17-static.hfc.comcastbusiness.net (localhost [IPv6:::1]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1D97944595 for ; Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:43:47 -0600 (MDT) Delivered-To: mg-t@autox.team.net Received: from mail-vc0-f178.google.com (mail-vc0-f178.google.com [209.85.220.178]) by autox.team.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 459B3435C8; Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:07:57 -0600 (MDT) Received: by mail-vc0-f178.google.com with SMTP id ie18so1889194vcb.37 for ; Mon, 28 Oct 2013 13:06:40 -0700 (PDT) h=mime-version:in-reply-to:references:date:message-id:subject:from:to :cc:content-type; bh=KkHo/LMNlRt6zFo0n4uWUXIIWAd7u54N1oVPABmMUJE=; b=cCCd+VTnyvbH0DffnaU3BzqGZR7/DisHnfwH8wGSWN2PxAv/mfrMrdbcqnuJMzOx7e 9O95EZG8Q+lZ8v9gHvfjCnRNCHoU7DZ1Yj9CcKeVbi5wQ7Ures2csRDTsQ39l7h/avwO clGzUt9Ul5uQDkJcphyRUfw0G+fgeS+Ljr8/ZgG4E8d6LEK/G0Rms6BdPYheKMWxB7Ey onhpjkKwxuXXr8vk1RVCeXFoXL085uM7U/fnGdLQ2UNK8cdxX4c/10URtzP3aSlCdaqu Qpy3N26KPIzy0SJ/a7YK42xwevXyExVb4NtwK2AEaCzxrFFuE76o+MxaYptq5KMo0fDa RJTw== ph1mr124472vec.40.1382990799961; Mon, 28 Oct 2013 13:06:39 -0700 (PDT) Received: by 10.58.152.174 with HTTP; Mon, 28 Oct 2013 13:06:39 -0700 (PDT) References: <8F7371A00ADEE44EA4DDAF565305D870271759FCA1@SRVMAILMBX6OKE.oneok.com> Date: Mon, 28 Oct 2013 15:06:39 -0500 From: Richard Lindsay To: "Brownlee, Craig" Cc: "mgs@autox.team.net List" , "mg-t@autox.team.net" Subject: Re: [Mg-t] (External) [Mgs] Looking more like a car every day...

Regarding your question, I think to remember (my TD sleeps around 50 miles from my home) that the spring is attached to a small tapered bracket clamped with the upper starter bolt, that you can see on the attached photo (with no spring, indeed).

I am not comfortable climbing under the car with the car on jackstands sitting ON casters, so I mounted the wheels with new tires, and set them on the casters. Nicely stable now. Wire on, Garth. http://www.aubard.us/MGTD/20131030_160222.jpg Looks awesome sitting on its own feet. Can't wait until its really on the ground and running! -rick ______________________________________________ Mg-t@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive
