You are the Gold Standard without question.

Brilliant. Maybe it was just difficult for me 😂

I have never had to do it on my cars, it sounded such a fidget on yours but a job needed doing.


It was so fiddly. I guess mine originally started to bulge when trying to clean between the beading and the body work. It wasn't as tight as the drivers side and after living it and the being over zealous with a wooden scewer scraping out some crud, the beading had stretched away from the body, which would make it slightly thinner, but when teased, became thicker and wouldn't go back between the gap. I ended having to listen the wing sufficiently, to then use some needle nose pliers to gently pull the beading in, and then retighten the bolts, before I moved on to the next bulgy ripple. Not perfect now, but much better. I just regularly squirt acf50 into the gap as a precaution.

Well done persevering with that what a pain.
I was warned about the side effects of ACF 50 on the piping by a very experienced life long Morgan engineer so have always used the MMC recommended 3 in 1 oil with no side effects thus far FWIW.
I hope it all stays put for you now.
