Heater cable and new overflow hose to finish things off, just the fan belt to go now...
Oh look, I have a working heater again!!
Will hopefully have the radiator in before Sunday :)

Minispares silicone hoses certainly look the part
Stainless steel cap screws, bolt at the bottom was a foresight, as you could never fit a 5mm Allen key between the suspension tower and radiator, better with a ratchet spanner, of course it was too wide anyway...
More cap screws
Shroud er, "fitted"
Radiator in after an hour of swearing, fighting and head scratching
The issue, fan is hard against the bottom of the shroud
Hopefully the garage can give me good news in a couple of weeks...
IN NEXT WEEKS EPISODE...

Aaah I get ya, would just be trial and error again,.its a Taiwanese radiator so will never fit as good as something locally sourced or from the UK, at least Clints have a tonne of spares and can make something up if need be, they always have Minis in :) It's not fouling by much, it's enough to stall the fan though...
Means I can finally get my mixture and timing sorted properly too

While I'd love a supercharged 1100 or 1275 lump in this eventually I can NOT afford another engine at the moment...
