Hi can anyone recommend a more active forum for MG owners , I'm not knocking Pistonheads as it is brilliant for my TVR but the MG side virtally non existant. Thanks.

You could try this place : http://www2.mgcars.org.uk/cgi-bin/gen5?runprog=mgbbs

A lot of USA contributors but lots of Brits and Europeans too, and the odd Aussie.

Phil.

MG Owners also have a web site and the V8 Register.

O.K. Ted I will , the Midget we have just purchased has had a recent goldseal box and a new Borg and Beck clutch but is really difficilt to get in 1st gear when the engine is running , I have changed the oil for new EP80 and bled the hydraulic clutch but still no improvement , I did notice that the hydraulic feed pipe from the master cylinder is at a higher point so could cause an airlock ? Has anyone had a similar problem ?
Thanks , Corin

Corin,

For questions on MG's, Phil's suggestion of this website is a must

I am a regular on this site:

www.xpowerforums.com

Dedicated to the modern MGs, it's a good bunch of people - Much smaller than pistonheads but with a similar atmosphere and structure. Also has a good picture gallery and arranges social and motorsport events.

Hope that helps Corin.

There is another forum that concentrates on the newer generation of MGs (as well as Rover).
forums.mg-rover.org
www.mg-rover.org
It was recommanded by the Auto Express once some months ago.
This forum and the other x-power forum are the two most popular mg forums and sites at the moment.
