Re: Old Clubby 2BY1
2BY1 was well known in the club back in the '90s . It went through several rebuilds at that time, didn't have an easy life. John McGuinness was the last owner I knew of.

Re: 1983 Mini City
I replaced my leaking water pump with one from a local motor factors but that started overheating only on motorway runs. Replaced that with a Minispares Evo pump and problem solved. The RC40 is a nice system.

Hard to get good quality bumpers these days. While you have it off paint the inside of it to prevent rusting from the back.

For soundproof you really need to cover the entire bulkhead.

If the car is slugish it may need the timing or mixture adjusted which can also cause the engine to heat up

Re: 1983 Mini City
Personally if its not broke don't replace it. The quality of new parts is so questionable these days.
Don't overheat the sill trim when fitting.\if it gets too soft you can leave finger indents in it.

Re: 1983 Mini City
I think the bearing is the correct way round but the shaft appears to be touching the clutch retaining bolt. Is the bolt and lock washer sitting all the way home? Is the top hat touching the bolt?
