So my fuel pump packed in. Can I fix it? Or am I going to have to shell out for a new one

The narration of the repair was top-notch. Also, it was really helpful that you explained *why* ancient fuel pumps have problems with modern fuel.
Ah, im glad to hear that the voice over was alright. Im new to doing it so im glad it seems to be good
Thanks for the shout out!! I am planning on daily driving her
no problem! Gonna be a fantastic car to daily drive!
@@thefatfrierunleshed I probably have another car coming within the next month. Either a MG B or an MG Midget. Not sure which one though
@@craigpests_channel Oh blimey. Both are brilliant cars. Best of luck!
If your serious about buying a Morris Minor as a daily driver bear in mind that the chassis components (Nuffield) are held together by BSF nuts and bolts whereas the engines and transmissions on the OHV Minors are of Austin origin and use American sizes (UNF) which means you'll need two sets of spanners and socket, A/F, (Across Flats) for the Unified nuts and bolts and BSW/BSF spanners for the BSF nuts and bolts. If you can't find new the hit the autojumbles!
That is a very old fuel pump. The 40 plus year old fuel pump in my Jaguar has the clear plastic layer on the fuel side, so hopefully is ok for a few years yet. Having fitted a diode across the points, there is no longer any sparking, so again should last a while. I remember clambering under a mini to wack the fuel pump, much easier on the minor.
Enjoyable and informative vid 👍 there seems to be a touch more production in the making 👍 audio and cinematography are improved 👍 . I’ve followed ‘Project Mildred’ build from the start but nothing has been posted for 9 months (?)... I think he’s taking a break 🤔
Great content many thanks 🙌🏻🙌🏻
voice over seems better. its much clearer to understand plus im sure it helps with making sure you cover all the points you want to get across.
Excellent video. Well lit, clearly explained and above all super narration.
Informative as ever, liked the format, followed the Mildred project that's no been updated for a good while, thumbs up for the shout outs
Back in the day the upgrade was to fit the mechanical fuel pump off some other BMC/Leyland car, most A series engines (and many other BMC/Leyland vehicles) have one driven off the cam shaft that fits directly to the engine. Modify the fuel pipework to suit & Robert's your Mother's brother, no more messing with fuel pump points.
Very true. I think this guy got a little confused between electrical/electronic and mechanical fuel pumps. If the pump is driven by electricity it is electrical or electronic depending on the internal circuitry, it is NOT mechanical. A mechanical fuel pump is bolted to the side of the engine block and a lever passes through and runs off the camshaft.
Yet another really helpful video, Thank you.
My Morris's mechanical fuel pump diaphragm broke recently. I repaired it with a custom diaphragm and it's been working fine for a couple days
Probably the most down to earth most informative “how to” video I’ve seen.
I have no idea about Morris Minor (or any car for that matter) engines, yet I keep trying to fix problems with my 55’, 803cc. Issue with it cutting out when I come to a stop, and believe I spotted the possible cause in a previous video about the distributor thing. Keep these up, it’s always good to learn from a fellow hobbit

For petrol pumps positioned away from the outside weather like inside underneath the bonnet the electronic ones are ok BUT with cars like one of my cars the MGBGT where the pump is underneath outside open to the road weather I don’t recommend the electronic types as any dampness destroys them very rapidly and a replacement part is about £80+ pounds whereas normally you can clean the points but if you have to buy a replacement points set they’re about £15 and very easy to replace , but all the same and nice video
Great video mate, I learned a thing or two. Keep it up! 😊👍
i got an electric hardi pump from andrew eggleton for 64 quid, not had any problems since!
Thanks for the very informative vidio!! Really clear information.
I replaced my fuel pump today on my Austin heley sprite which is the same system as yours, ao i connected everything and i turned the electrics on and the pump turns on and aounds just like yours however no fuel is coming through... Any suggestions what it could be?? And yes i have plenty fuel in tge car.
Great channel.

Good to see another video. Makes perfect sense to do the upgrade if you are using the car daily.
Enjoyed the voice over I feel it gives you time to give more detail and focus on the work you are doing.
Did they drain the tank when they did all the welding work?
Great content as always.
Why oh why do you use adjustable spanners and not the correct tool ?
I bought a hardi electronic pump its reliable but really knocking ,and can be heard over the engine noise when driving
Great vid. Very informative. Thanks.
get a universal pump off fleabay £12 and work great
Years ago I purchased a electronic fuel pump for my BMC product. Like you I wanted reliability. However I am now worried that the diaphragm is not going to prove reliable. It may be too old to be compatible with Ethanol (E10) .
yes earth lead is stock
ah, good to know. The wiring on Jean is a bit suspect in places so its good to know some parts are stock
Great video of how to swap pump but you made a big error.
The contactless fuel pumps are rubbish. They cant deliver enough fuel. I just threw mine away and fitted a pump with points.
I've got electronic ignition too.
Ill be chucking that out and going back to points soon.
Ross I can understand about the pump but why the electronic ignition.I was thinking of changing to electronic ignition but now I have doubts.
@@bernarddegrasse8753 if you get problems with points, it's easy to figure out the problem plus you can static time it without strobe.
Once you get issues and have electronic ignition fitted, you're never really sure what's wrong.
They worked fine in 1950, why change?
Big mistake...the old pumps are far superior...rebùild was the way to go....listen to the old guys !
