Morris Minor oil and filter change Classic Car a-series engine
Morris Minor oil and oil filter change.
This video will also apply to other classic cars using the A-series engine.
A brief video from a home mechanic on how to change the oil filter and oil on a Morris Minor. Use this video in conjunction with an appropriate workshop manual and your brain engaged.
Do not forget to double check you have secured the filter bowl and sump bolt. Bear in mind, oil pressure will need to build during the first few seconds of turning the engine over and the engine running, be gentle on the heart of your beloved Morris.
Always check for leaks around the filter housing and sump bolt;
A - after initial start up...
B - after an initial short journey...
C - periodically...
Sump drain bolt 19 mm socket (3/4 AF) torque setting not available
Filter bowl bolt 16mm socket (9/16 AF) torque setting 16lbf. ft.
(Apologies, video warbles on about a 14mm socket...)
The workshop manuals recommend oil changes every 3000mi and filter changes every 6000mi. With modern oils I'm content to leave oil changes to every 4000mi, but I do change the filter every time.
Oil; 20W50 classic (high zinc content), approx 6.5 pints (3.7l) which includes the volume of the oil filter.

    Welldone good sir. I have not done an oilchange and filter on the Traveller so I was a bit aprehensive about the filter as I am only used to modern spin-on filters. So the issue has been nullifiyed now. All I have to worry about now is finishing getting the battle beast back on the road...

    your channel is very good, and channel videos are very good. People are interested in watching your channel videos. But the videos don't reach millions of people, because there are some problems, Channel videos are not SEO optimized. On page SEO, and off page SEO not done. These are required to increase the channel. etc. then increase subscriber, Then it's time to monetize

    It would help to know if these new bushes were standard rubber or polyurethane as most people would probably be switching to the more durable poly bushes?

    • @mmocbristol
      @mmocbristol 3 роки тому

      Thank you for taking the time to watch our video. I replaced the old bushes with the standard rubber instead of the polyurethane ones. In future I may try out the poly bushes and I would be happy to make another video showing these being fitted. I can imagine that if you were to use poly bushes then it would be near enough the exact same process to fit them. I hope this has helped.

    Well done on your first video. You made this job look easy and I would have no fear doing it now which is the purpise of the video of course. Is there torque settings for the 2 nuts?

    • @mmocbristol
      @mmocbristol 3 роки тому

      Thank you very much, we're over the moon that this has been of some help for you. When carrying out the job, I was unable to find the torque settings in the owners manual so I tightened them up almost as tight as I could. The split pin helps keeps them in place and upon checking a few times since, I can confirm they haven't moved. I hope this helps!

      Thank you for your feedback, that's a very fair observation. This was my first time using a chest mount for the GoPro and I'll admit, some of the angles didn't come out as good as I had hoped. Moving forward, on future videos I will be ensuring that the camera is angled to give a better view when working lower down. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch the video!
