Fitted new rocker cover gasket and oil filler cap . Not much to most of you but at just 48 years old I’ve got arthritis in my hands, so without help most jobs are impossible. So today is a good day ?

Well Done Norfolk..  any completed task is satisfying.   I have dear friend in your area (Norwich that is).

Made the 300-mile journey from the south coast to the lake district in *relative* comfort... I never thought a 998-powered Mini would make such a good motorway cruiser!

Got the interior light working properly - dodgy connection at the fuse box.
Finally got the idle speed & mixture set reasonably. Still needs a proper tune though.

Test fit for front mount rad on my rebuild

Removed and cleaned out the remote gear casing. The amout of grease that was in here! 
Aslo the rawlpin was on its way out! 

Bushings worn so a lot of slop. Going to replace. You can see in the bottom photo how thin the front busings is compared to the rear.
Might adapt a rodend for the alu "eye" or just use the ball as the plasic one on the end of the lever is a bit janky.
