Yesterday I cleaned up the earthing point in the boot and then sprayed clear waxoil over the top to protect it. Thinking about it.. was that a bad idea? Will it "seep" in and raise the resistance of the connection?

    Copper grease would probably work just as well.

Really annoying when you make a deal with someone and they turn around and sell it to someone else.

Guys I need some advice (again!!!) in all the rain we had, not once did I get any water pooling.. but now I do! It looks as if it coming from under the heater. On tuesday I notice splatters of water on my trainers when I got out, and now I have puddles.... Where could it be from? HELP!!!!

    If you have antifreeze in your coolant you will normally smell it inside the car if the heater is leaking.

    I can't see any colour, but it has a little more consistency than water, I'm not sure what antifreeze smalls like, but there has been a smell ever since I bought it! I though it was just Mini!!!

    Water leak are no a quick job any of them, try running your finger around and be hind the heater a inch at a time to see if you finger gets wet. working your way higher. your squirt pipes are connected to your washer jet .

Just got a reply on ebay about a car being broken for spares. I asked what engine and gearbox it had as I am after a particular gearbox. The response I got was 'Standard one'. What use is that when there are multiple engines and gearbox combinations for the car.

    Try asking a more pertinent question! Some people won't know what you mean and need a push.

    I thought what engine and gearbox would have sufficed. If someone asked me this about my mazda 323 that I am breaking, even though I don't know the engine code I could tell them its a 1342cc 16v petrol and 5 speed manual gearbox. Doesn't matter now anyway. I have sourced the one I need.
