Eamonn you absolute gentleman. I moved house and couldnt find the Haynes manual anywwhere. Probably still at the bottom of a box.
I was able to get a very very similar sized washer in Tripart in galway this morning. Thanks again. Should be back on the road in the morning.

Hi All.
Would anybody know the dimensions of the seating washer to torque up the cv joint/front wheel bearing (tool21 on minispares).

Or even better, does anybody have one that they could lend me for a day?

Saw a lovely blue mini in Spiddal yesterday. Roof rack and signs all over it. Anyone on here?
Great weather for it.

Fantastic colour. Looks great.

Hey all.

After reaching 100,000 miles I'm thinking of getting an engine rebuild. It is a bog standard 998.
If anyone would be interested in undertaking this please pm me with a rough price.
Option one is just to get seals done.

Cheers,
Ciaran

The battery is only 8-9 months old. The fact it would not start when hooked up to my other car with jump leads made me think it was not a battery issue. Am I wrong in assuming that?

All the best.

Hi All, I have a 998cc 1991 mini. Never had any starting issues in 2 years of owning it. Untill yesterday. I hadnt started it in 2 weeks. So thought that it was a battery issue. Charged up the battery and still nothing. Tried jumpin off another car too. Lights, radio, heater all working fine. But wh...

Do you still have the black wheels off the 93. Any interest in parting with them?

Lovely clock setup

Seen that nice 04 mini on Wexford Street yesterday

Great stuff. Thanks guys.

Hi All,
Can anyone suggest some good oil for my mini and how much it usually needs. Its a 1991 Leyland Mini 998cc. Gonna do a change at the weekend.
Thanks in advance.

My mini started acting up yesterday. With the passenger door open the engine wouldnt start. Close the door and she starts perfectly. Open the door when its running and she cuts out.
