Just Googled it. From 1968 on they switched to negative ground. http://www.mgexp.com/phorum/read.php?1,1608742 |
Yep, two, 6 volt batteries, hooked up in series, under a seat/bench, under a tin plate, exposed to the elements ........ only the British could come up with a design like that ........
Was it negative or positive ground .. ?? It depended upon which way the Lucas electrical items let the electrons flow on any given day .......
