Yes, bad things can happen. Your case may be completely different, but here's what happened to me many moons ago- I noticed my engine was ...   07-15-2005 09:30 pm

I'm remembering that those front bolts will need to be removed so that you can pull the rod out of the subframe opening and remove ...   07-13-2005 12:34 am

I've never heard of that one. It should be a snug fit that is simple to slide in and out. Are you sure you have ...   07-08-2005 06:34 pm

I would change the thermostat before I do anything else, as that sounds like an issue in this case. They can go bad anytime. You ...   06-27-2005 04:16 pm

I've used an English made kit that did the same thing. Despite the fact that it included the correct sized adaptor and rubber seals it ...   06-21-2005 04:45 pm

I put the washer under the locknut. A slight improvement would be to use the Thackery washers below and the rubber spacers and cup washers ...   06-01-2005 07:09 pm

I also think your new settings look good. This what I've been using on the new Dellorto carb kits with for a 2 liter engine ...   05-24-2005 04:28 pm

I believe this is one, but I'm not certain. I can say it is an actual wire wheel on an actual Jensen Healey. I don't ...   05-17-2005 10:12 pm

A few Jensen Healeys had dealer installed Dunlop wire wheels. These original wheels had long, thin steel lug nuts that were quite unique and that ...   05-16-2005 10:22 pm

Good point Kurt! It's always so sad to see this kind of damage that can easily avoided by some simple maintenaince. Remember that a very ...   05-09-2005 01:04 am

I thought this was interesting; an original Jensen Healey window sticker from VIN 10980 sold in Ohio when new. Note the exciting list of options ...   05-05-2005 10:57 pm

I've noticed that those dampers are a bit soft. Even when new, you will able to compress it by hand without too much effort, it's ...   05-01-2005 07:16 pm

It's pretty straight forward. You'll be removing the same number of parts in addition removing the cams from the housings and, hopefully, adding new seals ...   04-29-2005 09:09 pm

Judson, you get extra credit for all that tubing! Pretty fancy stuff. I simply ran a hose out of the engine to an aftermarket charcoal ...   04-21-2005 05:26 pm

This happened on my old JH and is quite common on high mileage Jensen Healeys. This is one of my biggest pet peeves on this ...   04-14-2005 03:53 pm

I agree, I think the Dynamat Extreme is one of the best items you can add to your JH. If you've ever driven a Jensen ...   04-12-2005 04:31 pm

There are some listed at the Club Store (I need to add more sizes) at http://www.jhps.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=Warehouse&Product_Code=93613 A long, long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away ...   04-06-2005 08:23 pm

I like the SuperPros as they are much closer to the original Metalastik in feel and fit. The cost has gone up a couple times ...   04-05-2005 09:38 pm

None of this stuff is cheap. The Tilton flywheel was $475 back in the early 90's. Conversion Components in New Zealand also has something for ...   04-01-2005 04:06 pm
