MG Midget and Sprite Technical - Wiper MotorGear Size

I want to increase the sweep of the wipers can anyone suggest wheel size to fit?
Peter King

Probably a 120, but check the existing. Number is stamped on the gear wheel.
Its also apparently possible to drill the gearwheel and reposition the pin further out to increase the sweep.

There was some discussion of this last November in the Sprite and midget Technical section thread called 'Wiper sweep' started by Peter King as above.
