How do i set timing on my mg midget

Hi there,, If you havent fixed it in the last 2 years then now you can. The firing order is 1342 one being the first one of engine ,so take out the number 1 spark plug and turn the engine over by the fan ,[and if you take all plugs ] it will make it better to turn over and when turning over with fan you will get pressure on your finger so keep turning till the pressure goes and then turn back till the piston is just at the top [you can see with a torch] when you have the piston on top dead center then check the distributor and the rotorbutton should be pointing to the segment going to Number 1 lead or spark plug ,if it isent then remove the distributor and turn back a little and refit and try again ,keep doing this till the rotor button is in line with number 1 plug lead ,and the points set at 14 thou when open. then its all go.

I have a 1960 austin healey sprite that stays in gear when I move the shift lever to neutral. When I let off the clutch and depress it again it moves into neutral. Is this a transmission or hydrolic i

I would be looking at the gear leaver through to the gearbox because it sounds like play in the gear selector linkage, and I would expect to find considerable wear in it by now.

Start up g6 gt 2007 whining noise

You need to determine where the noise is coming from. Check your power steering fluid and make sure it is full. Remove your serpentine belt and see if the noise goes away, That will let you know if it is coming from the engine or an accessory or pulley bearing. If the noise goes away whith the belt removed, check the alternator bearing and pulley bearings. If the noise is still there whith the belt removed, that means it is either in the engine or transmission.

2007 gt g6 all instruments on panel is flashing

A mechanic's scan tool would lbe necessary to check all the modules. The problelm could be either in the wiring or the control modules. There is also the chance the dimmer switch could be turned off or defective. Or, the electrical part of the ignition switch could be problematic. Because of the possibilities, use of the scan tool would seem the route to go.

Do the engine have to be warm to check for coolant leak with a radiator pressure tester?

To check for a coolant leak with a radiator pressure tester, the engine does not have to be warm. In fact, it's safer to perform the test when the engine is cool to avoid the risk of burns. Here are the general steps to perform a coolant pressure test: Make sure the engine and the system is cool since hot coolant can burn, and that the cooling system has no pressure. If the coolant level is low, add water or coolant to raise it. Remove the radiator cap once the system is cool and depressurized. Connect the pressure tester to the coolant reservoir or the radiator. Pump the pressure tester to apply pressure to the cooling system without going over the system's psi number on the radiator cap, which the pressure tester's gauge measures. If the pressure gauge drops quickly, there is a leak. The slower the gauge drops, the smaller the leak. As for your Buick, it's possible that the intake manifold gasket is leaking coolant. This is a common problem in many GM vehicles, including Buicks34. The coolant can leak externally, or in some cases, it may leak internally, causing coolant to mix with the engine oil. Operating the engine with a coolant/oil mix can result in internal engine damage. If you suspect this is the case, it's recommended to get it checked and repaired by a professional mechanic.

I just installed a new key switch & batteries, I need to reverse the left hand lever to work the opposite. I need the right lever to move in reverse, What two wires do I need to switch?

You give absolutely no clue what on!! All questions in Cars and Trucks category need full 'year make model'. If it isn't a Car it needs 'make model (what it is)'.. All the above should be the first 3 words in all questions. Then you have over 40,000 categories to choose from. We can't guess from what you have written. ..

How hard is it to change the serpentine belt in 2006 rendezvous

If the belt has fallen off there must be a problem. The don't just fall off of the car without assistance. With the belt off, check all of your pulleys to make sure they are turning properly. Then, get the manual for your vehicle and it will show you how to do this job :() Every car is different but all cars are the same generally and this is usually just a matter of putting the correct wrench into the tensioner to remove/apply tension and route the belt around everything in the proper direction. There is usually a sticker in the engine compartment/hood area that shows the diagram of how the belt is routed.
