The MG TF

[Burnerman]

Unfortunately I have one of these things coming in for work tomorrow
Its a 'V' reg cabriolet and I've never had anything to do with them.
Lifting up the boot lid, all you can see is the oil and water fillers - the engine itself is tucked forward towards the rear seats - if it has any.
Does anyone know how I can get to the cylinder head to get the plugs out?
This is a serious question, incidentally!
Have a good morning, everyone.
John

We all get them?

Plenty of reverent stuff under Spark Plugs or is your "little darling" different?

PS Don't even look at the colour of the coolant, cas they have a pullet proof head gasket, not

Imagine doing that John

 

[Burnerman]

Thank you so much for that
I'm debating whether to emigrate tomorrow instead
I've done K series head gaskets before, and the last time one of the bolts stripped in the bottom of the block......if it needs that, then I'm gone!

Pete's site is a mine of information as are dieters http://www.mgfcar.de/index.htm and Rob Bells http://www.mgf.ultimatemg.com/

From your other thread you obviously know it's an MGF not a TF if it's on a real "V" plate. The MG TF replaced the MGF in 2002.

Yes cheers - I thought they were all TF's until I glanced at the manual. Its the first one of the make I've come across.
