MGB Electricals Systems (The Essential Manual) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Great book! As an electrical engineer and a person who has owned and modified MGBs since the early 1970s, I can really appreciate the accurate knowledge and advice this book contains. Most books just show the wiring diagrams and add a few explanations without any real "hands on" knowledge of MGs, just cars in general. This book is MGB specific. It explains the electrical system components in easy to understand layman's terms and carefully describes ways to improve the car's electrical system detailing the advantages of each modification. Many improvements are very quick and easy such as adding proper ground connections to lamps and converting to a single battery while others are more complicated such as converting from positive ground (earth) to negative ground (earth). The author even supports the modifications with test results (why change something if there will be no resulting improvement? Many of the changes would benefit other makes of vintage cars as well. Anyone interested in the maintaining or modifying any parts of the electrical system of their MGB should definitely purchase a copy of this book.
