Irish Mini Owners Club

Here is a silent video on your electric Contryman Woody, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIe6y3_uYDk And an Australian conversion similar to Kriss's. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9BL0qtt8Gs And one for Kiliian ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0g3ypjBL9Q Now if anyone had photos or film of the...

Fresh petrol ?
Fully charged battery ?
Clean contacts in dizzy cap ?

20W/50 oil.

Halfords do a classic can at a reasonable price. They should have a filter too.

If you want to know what you have to do to get more power, then get yourself a copy of "Tuning BL's A Series Engine" by David Vizard. (The newest edition is the 3rd edition and is just called "Tuning the A Series Engine") It was originally written 30 years ago but the latest edit...

Totally transformer.

Thanks for correcting your post, clearer for all concerned.

Hi Kriss, Can you please clarify your for sale post and amend it as needed so that it complies with the forum rules. For Sale MINI RELATED FOR SALE ITEMS ONLY All for sale items must be accompanied by : (1) a PHOTOGRAPH of the item in question (2) a specific PRICE (no "open to offers") (3)...

Pics sorted for you, it's not that difficult really, there is an explanation of how to post pics on the front page of this For Sale section.

Totally agree with Killian; Joe and Laurna did sterling work over the weekend, hat's off to them both. They have set the benchmark we all should be striving for as IMM2017 Crew.

If you have a direct web address for the picture you want to post, you should be able to use the BBCode [img]photo address[/img] either by just typing it or by using the "Img" button above the text box where you write posts.

No.

Might be a tad out of the way but the old disused circuit at Reims is interesting.

It's 22 years since I got any engine work done so can't help you with current prices.

I went down the route of getting a 1380 engine from MED in the UK, it's still going grand when it gets out.

They are all just standard castings.

You can get alloy versions though in 5, 7 and 8 port configuration. Then you are on to twin cam heads.

You could always share with someone, cuts the cost in two.

Making the whole head breath a bit more will give the biggest gains.

If going through France you have to factor in the autoroute toll charges of around €40 each way. Avoiding the motorways in France is possible but much slower as we have discovered many times. You also have to consider the time you actually spend on the ship. From Roslare to France direct, you will b...

If you are flying then Aer Lingus has 3 flights a day to Brussels with fares around €150 per person. It's about 110km to the IMM from there. Car rental for 5 days should be around €160, minimum age for rental is usually 23 years old but drivers under 25 sometimes attract a premium charge. Ryanair fl...

Next years IMM will be held Balendijk, 3920 Lommel, Belgium from the 12th to the 16th of May 2016. It is being hosted by the Mini Fun Club Belgium who were formed in 1999. The IMM 2016 website is http://www.imm2016.be . At present event tickets are €57 and will remain so until the end of June. Ticke...

Is it the solenoid that is clicking ?

Could be starter motor, something as simple as brushes in the motor sticking.

Woody, Zak, BlackSe7en and the Candle Man were on the ferry from Keil yesterday.

Zak has had to replace a wheel bearing and a radius arm already.

If you are looking for power then you need to be able to time the cam correctly, every little bit of hp helps. Standard cams are little more than pips on a gerkin, and never going to produce anything in the way of power, the MG Metro cam is probably the best standard cam. I'm a bit old school so wou...

Probably a waste of time fitting 1.5 rockers on an old worn cam to be honest. You'd be better served by fitting a new cam while the head is away getting the work done, fit an adjustable timing chain and new cam followers while you are at it .
