All models of car have their own common faults and foibles as well as the general ills that can afflict all cars. This book represents the collected knowledge of many MGB experts and allows problems to be identified and assessed quickly, and then to be dealt with in the most appropriate way.

About the Author
Aircraft was Roger Williams' first love, and he joined the de Havilland Aircraft Company where he quickly added motorcars to his list of prime interests. During the ensuing six years he not only completed his apprenticeship and studies, but also built two Ford-based specials. and in 1986 he started his own consultancy business, which allowed him to restore numerous MGBs, a Triumph TR6 and a Triumph Stag, and to write several MGB and Triumph TR books.

An Excellent Diagnostic Guidebook,

This review is from: Your Expert Guide to MGB and MGB GT Problems and How to Fix Them (Auto-Doc) (Paperback)
This book is not a repair manual. It is a compendium of common problems and their solutions for MGB owners. It is really well written guidebook helping one to figure out what is causing that rattle, knock or whine somewhere on the MGB. There is a mountain of useful advice and diagnosis, but don't expect this book to tell you how to fix the problem step by step. For that you need a workshop manual, but on the other hand, a workshop manual will not help you very much to find the problem. That is why this book is a gem and a must buy for any non-expert MGB owner/mechanic. I can't wait for more books in this series to be published for other vintage British sports cars.

The book paid for itself within the first week!,
This review is from: Your Expert Guide to MGB and MGB GT Problems and How to Fix Them (Auto-Doc) (Paperback)
I went online to check out recommended books on MGB's. This was "THE" one that was preferred for general maintenance. I changed out the fuel filter on my car and it wouldn't start. Local repair shops didn't even want to look at it even though I suspected debris from the filter plugging the carb. This book told me EXACTLY how to fix it! It probably saved me a few hundred dollars right there!
Well worth the investment!!

For those of us who own and tinker with an MGB, this is a great trouble shooting guide. It goes beyond what the Bentley and Haynes manuals offer. I am planning to keep this in my MGB together with essential tools for road trips.
