I was given a book recently entitled "Austin Cars" published by Pearson and written by T.B.D. SERVICE? The book has an inscription on the flyleaf which I find charmingly nostalgic, sadly the car does not appear on the Chassis Register or registration number check, it may of course not have been a 7.
I really hope Chunky and companion really did enjoy many "Happy days" in the car!
I read the section on 7 engines and came to the paragraph about engine noise and vibration, which seemed concise and definitive, which went on to describe diagnosis. It mentions how to check for end float noise on the dynamo gear and instructs one to remove the cover plate and press a tommy bar against the drive gear. Could this be an explanation for the curious plate on the timing gear housing I wonder?
