Today I checked the ignition and got thoroughly baffled by how she performs best at approx 40 degrees before TDC. Changed the oil to Millers Classic Mini 20/50, with a new filter and an upgraded 'gold magnet' sump plug from Minispares. Cleaned the engine/engine bay and made the grille into a quickly removable one piece unit by rivetting the side trims onto the grille and fitting grille buttons. The icing on the cake was putting my new 'A+' sticker on the rocker box!

That's to improve cornering.

Adjusted the brake light switch position so the lights came on correctly & not ALL the time!

Oh, also sealed up a slight leak from the LCB Y piece to exhaust system.
I knew it was blowing somewhere, but had to get underneath with the engine running.

Went for a bast round the TT course today in my brothers race mini on Mad Sunday.
Mountain section is one way for the TT fortnight and we were at over 120mph for a good chuck of it which I must say was great fun!
I just need to get mine back on the road. I'm just waiting for a left handed thread nut for the Jack Knight gearbox to be made.
