In the words of Dr Pepper, what's the worst that can happen? How's is your Tahiti coming along?

True, very true...also the words of Guy Martin ;) Coming along well (slowly)... new chrome grille and bumper, did an oil change and air filter change this weekend... distributer, spark plugs and fan belt next! What about you?

Nothing quite as technical as that. Sorted out the radio and heater as to why they were not working and soon to be fitting a new steering wheel. Was planning on getting some more parts but my other car has just taken a chunk of money to get through its mot so mini parts will need to wait sadly :(

Possible daft question - Is the oil filler cap for an injection Mini the breather type?

-
IainStallard
Breather type, the only time a non-vented cap is used is when there is a breather built into the rocker cover

Soon to be on a five day weekend. Main job, finding out why the drivers door never looks shut when closed. An elephant would fit in that gap :\

Easy to adjust! The slam latch bit can be undone from behind, and moved back, so the door latches closer to the car:).
