Hello, I bought my wife an MG so she wouldn't bother me anymore about my toys...and I have a couple questions.
When I picked it up, the air filter housing was not attached to the carb, the PO said he just didn't put it back on the last time he took it off. Anyway, when I tried to put it back on, I realized I must be missing a few parts. Looking in the Vic Brit and Moss catalogs, I see I have the air filter housing, Temp compensator and Connector. However, I don't have whatever part(s) I need to connect these to the actual carb. It looks like there must be a metal part that bolts to the carb itself that the parts I have must then attach to. Oh, and I have the gasket that fits over the carb opening (where the butterfly is). Anyone know what the parts are called, and where to get them?
Also, after the car warms up a bit, a lighted "catalyst" warning light comes on. I can find no reference to that in Chilton, Haynes, or Midget Drivers Handbook. Any idea what this is and what it is referring to??
And finally, I have no turn signals, no four way flashers, no Hi-beams or heater fan. I checked the fuses on the firewall (all four of them???) and they are all OK. Anything else to check?
Thanks for any advice and help anyone can give me.
