Thank you all. It appears that the vendor was correct in telling me that it was ok to use unleaded.

Thanks Peter. The conversion was in 1990 so the engine was probably older than that. I think that I will continue using an additive although the previous owner said it did not need one.

I Have an MGB V8 conversion. It had a Rover SD1 engine, number 10A20783, fitted in 1990.
Will this run on unleaded or do I need an additive?

Thanks for these replies.
When the garage gets a bit warmer after this cold snap I will revisit this.

The off side headlight on my '73 GT does not work. The lamp and the near side one are ok. Any suggestions?

If anyone else has the same problem I have come up with a relatively inexpensive solution. I have made a stainless steel adapter and slightly modified the Smiths sender enabling the Smiths sender to be fitted to the Jaeger mount on the tank. It works with no fuel leak.

I sent my recently acquired BGT V8 for its MOT last month. The testing station pointed out that the old certificate had the car as an MGF. I e-mailed VDSA with a copy of the V5C and they amended their records.

Have not made a decision yet. 4 possibilities. Change tank and sender, change fuel gauge, keep hunting for the correct sender or just live with it.

It is not a polarity problem. The problem is that a Jaeger sender is not compatible with a Smiths gauge.

Hi Adrian, the original brackets securing the straps were cut off to accommodate the new tank. I replaced these then fitted the original type of tank using new straps.
