Failed... Blown wing indicator bulb and a few turns on the offside back brake. Retest tomorrow, got off lightly :-)

I should say that's all that needs fixing, which is annoying as the brakes were serviced the back ones last week :-). One side was significantly stronger than the other.

Does it matter which way round the thermostat housing gaskets go? they've got the little notch in then but I have no idea... The way I've found best is to have the notch at the front towards the right.?

Managed to drop my spanner (whilst holding it) onto the live nut on the starter motor. Que sparks, and now my anxiety / paranoia is kicking in about the shock! Argh :(

I did something similar being careless tightening the nut on the battery of my E30, touched both terminals - made me jump a bit (and swear a lot!!)

the wire to the middle pin on my alternator plug was melted off and not attached, would this have been the reason it wasn't charging my battery?

if a wire on a mini wasn't needed for something. there's pretty high chances it wouldn't be fitted in the first place.
