My motivation is there, however spare time to get in the garage is sadly lacking

Cheers guys, hmmm thats strange, imo I would have thought one from a MPI would work on a k series as they are both full injection systems

mpi uses a coil pack and sends a twin signal or summit like that, all other mini just a coil

Once I get mine all set up I'm going for max 2.5 as I've already had the fixed 2 degrees arms.

It was meant as tongue in cheek haha, my laughing face got replaced with those question marks! I think I'll just try it, with acid etch primer.

some of those new cones are not made correctly and lift the car miles to high, I had the issue with the ones from p&l minis before took them off in the end.
Sep 07 2016 02:23 PM

Will16

don't say that!

New game mini

My new cones have never really fully settled, as above I've heard a lot about more recent cones making the car sit too high. Hopefully yours will after a while tho.

Yes I have to all three, take the bonnet off, it's very easy

I meant getting to the bolt that tucked up under the scuttle, and fitting the nylon washers all in place at the same time! Speedo cable is easy with no inner wings ;) and the clutch master cylinder was a utter ******* too!

And the gear linkage roll pin is easy peasy with a watch makers screwdriver
