Hey all,
I have an Austin Mini Thirty 1989, 998cc, it's recently been put back on the roads for a couple of months after a top engine re-build around 6 years ago, it had sat for 6 years. I was travelling on a motorway and to change road at a roundabout, I dropped down a gear to accelerate up a slip road from 4th to 3rd and the gear slightly grinded going in, started to make a tapping noise so I slowed down but had just entered onto the m25 so couldn't slow too much as there were lots of lorries. Then it started steaming and cut out, as I stopped it emptied loads of water from the radiator. I'm hoping it's only a pipe but that doesn't explain the strange noise?
Any help or advice would be much appreciated, thanks!
