Played around with the suspension at the weekend and much happier now, had to order some multi-hole exhaust mounts as the hangar keeps jumping off, not sure why but it seems to sit much further back then what I remember. Fan belt adjusted so that it stops squealing but still can't find the oil leak! Kwik fit put it up on the ramp so I could have a look underneath, looked really clean, also mentioned that it was the best mini they had seen! :)

Miss Driving Ruby already! Cant believe she went off the road 2 months ago. Anyway........ Plans for this spring:

 

Get the radio and speakers e.c.t back in

Tidy up/ replace external trims

install the new headliner

see if i can do anything else about the leaking diff housing!

 

Really she needs gearbox and diff overhaul as the syncro's for 2nd and 3rd have been on their way out for years. It is free to hold it in gear though........

Checked in on her today, start3d first time after 3 months, warmed up nicely and sounded great! Battery back on trickle charge until March!

Treated Ruby to a long awaited tune up and rolling road visit to BD Engineering. 52bhp standard, 56bhp first run then 63 after a tune up! Raised up the rear coilovers as they were bottoming out on the arch and damaging the trim. All adjusted and new trim fitted ready for L2B.
