The bad points as mentioned above. Sometimes you can pot the concept of life struck him with a screwdriver or similar grip - if it convinces a series of hits, strengthens the diagnosis.

The Morris Minor is an SU electric fuel pump is mounted equipped near the battery compartment.
Burned in the bomb hole and contacts, but if evil does not try to clean it.
Remove the power cord from the pump, then the nut and washer under the terminal.
You can then contact the lid of black Bakelite, and you can see.
Clean the contacts with fine sandpaper put it - I hope it will work your pump.
If that fails, buy a new set of contacts - probably only for owners to integrate the club these days - not so difficult.

They say it is the power of the bomb, it is clear that his old Morris Minor, enter your problem may be the points of the pump when it is used, and can not touch or click in each case, not the pump is not and consequently, no fuel pump, replace products that may still be available in the pilot store, if not a scrap yard try to have a chance May pump.good parts.
Satan.

Memory in BMC vehicles in the 60s, the Morris Minor had an electric pump on the wall, unlike the Mini, which are hidden 1100, 1300, etc., in the rear sub-frame, when the pump is moving when you touch the metal body with a key or something, what are the points that have corroded, in this case is the easiest bet is another bomb when the items in the clean corroded faster because the matter removed, which prevents the bow, the control value of live food in the first bomb though!

Most answers are there, I had the same problem a few years ago, is the power delivered to the pump whereby the pump at certain points to check, etc., and accidentally found the error .. the casing of the bomb was not a good land and clean chassis of the car, a good fit, clean, safe, and everything has been resolved .. Luck anyway ..

It may sound silly, but you have the right fuel in the tank. It happened to me many years ago, and the error was at the gas station who accidentally with a batch of gasoline accidentally made available and the result ended with dozens of auto repair.

As Bardic is usually given the most difficult part, I had an MGB with a similar bombing of a wave or two with the handle of a screwdriver or a hammer is often a shock for the life of an exchange, however, is probably the best choice, but to give a blow of happiness can be: 0)

Morris was still under mechanical pump cam so I think that a secondary market entry.

There are many parts that can fail in an electric fuel pump if not, the time to get a new one.
