Starting the long process of changing links on my forum post on our local Mini forum. I wish TMF would accept google drive links. Then I could update my thread on here too.

    Just to be clear i sent my location, and asked if it could be palleted and arrange my own courier. No point giving loads of info if you can't stick it on a pallet in the first place 1984mini25, it goes on a pallet all the same regardless. Besides a simple "no" would suffice rather than ignoring the person, talk about manners! We're all in this together with a common interest, no point in being rude to people!

    Can't say i've noticed much oil through the pipes, currently got both breathers plumbed into the carb, but wondering if a can is a better solution for the engines health?
