Having repaired the Drivers seat, I needed to carry out some more work to get it back into the car again.
Tastes Like Petrol
When I got the car, it had this weird heater valve on it that didn’t work, oh and it leaked. That was no good.
This is just a quick little post regarding the timing marks on older Minis
As part of the recommissioning process, I chose to replace the bushes for the engine steadies with uprated poly bushes.
No one likes either a saggy unsupportive seat, or one where you literally sit on wood. The Mini had both, and it was time to fix it.
Parts arrived! Woooo!
Well, I’m not kidding, I’m all over the place with the Mini at the moment.
The first thing to check in order to fix the misfire, was the ignition system.
People have asked why I do what I do; buying broken cars and fixing them. It’s because despite all the blood, sweat and swears, it’s fun and nothing beats the satisfaction of that first drive.
Another big day working on the Mini today, but not everything went to plan.
