  • Hey Guys, Migs Here! In today’s video, we are working on the 1974 MGB and continuing the attempt to get this to run smoothly and correctly for the first time since we rebuilt the entire engine top to bottom! After uncovering a major issue in last video, it’s time to fix it and do any addition changes needed to reach our goal! Thanks for Watching!

    Definitely switch it over to electronic ignition. Points will leave you stranded often. If you do make sure you find one that will fit your specific distributor type. Mines an XR700 optical unit from fast. Only about $120

      I may look into that, for the price it seems well worth it, thanks!

    FYI, putting the distributor back is really easy. Just take off the distributor cap and turn the rotor until the distributor drops down in place. You can leave the plug wires in place while doing so.

    Moto go to A boat marina and get some ethanol free fuel ⛽ to put in the fuel tank. Those cars are not made to run the E10 fuels out now days bud. It's carburetorared to it's very bad on those carbs for sure.

    First, drive it through a break in sequence. Change the oil soon since you didn't clean the swarf from the oil passages.
    Your approach to diagnosis is scattershot which suffers from your impatience. This is costing you loads of aggravation, time & money. When confronted with a new challenge, stop, think it through before acting. Your problems are results of hastily assembling the motor.
