I have four frozen front wheel cylinders on my 54  Alpine. The method to use 
air to get the pistons out will not work on any of  them.
Any suggestions on how to free them  up?

Hi Ed .. If you are unable to free up the whl cyl's using grease,  new cyl's 
are available as they are the exact same part as on an MG TD, any  T-series 
parts supplier should be able to supply them

  Also I cannot find a diagram on how the 54 Alpine  turn Indicators are 
connected. I find a flasher unit but no relay,as is used  on the Mk3.  Does the 54 
Alpine have separate turn indicator lamps or  dual filaments?  Thanks for any 
Info.  Ed



These cars do not use the fancy relay unit, The power is fed  thru the 
flasher which then goes to the switch and then to the junction box at  the bottom of 
the steering column, which connects to the lights,  your  Alpine uses the 
bulbs that would have been the backup lights in a european spec  car as the turn 
indicators. There is a wiring diagram in the shop  manual. 
 Good luck  <> Steve Cota  <>
