Hello
Mini is 1990 1275 Carb.
Does anyone know what bolt goes into the radiator bracket as shown? rad.jpg 65.83K 2 downloads
The thermostat mounting is PEM10036. I have asked all of the usual mini shops, and none of them seem to know. The exploded parts diagrams do not show the bolt/stud.
(I feel like I'm always asking for bolts on this!)
Another unrelated question is related to the earth bolt in the boot. Picture is shown battery.jpg 93.05K 1 downloads.
As you can see, the earth strap needs replaced, so I bought a new one. When removing the bottom nut, the metal of the boot between started to tear. I will patch this hole with a welder later on at some point (I don't have access to one now).
My question is, will I just drill a hole somewhere that I can find thick/solid metal in the boot? Has anyone else done this? It should be straightforward enough.
Thanks in advance!
Alasdair
