I've been buggering about reviving my Pickup's fuel tank.

I've fitted a lovely new AC Dodd HIF44 carburettor.

I used a K&N filter cleaner kit to clean and re-oil the air filter. When I say clean I mean remove 30 years of filth :-)

It took a few goes and you have to wait for the filter to dry after washing the cleaner out of it. Do it takes longer than you think.

Finally got brave and drilled a hole in the inner wing to pull through the wiring loom from the door.  I was quite pleased with how it worked and looks.  I now have a working electric window and door lights.  Need to work out how to wire the central locking next and then tackle the passenger door loom!

Replaced a failed core plug. Now need to get some antifreeze to replace what I spilt on the floor.

On my own at the moment so having a few days on the Mini - just removed the hub nut to fit new discs and calipers - since the photo I have also removed the track rod end as I will replace that at the same time.
