Your mini and the weekend
#31
I'm also bleeding brakes this weekend. Big Grin.
Hoping it improves the ability slightly.

Also might tackle some of these bent studs I have....

Sorted out the idling and fast idling, thanks to the WhatsApp group, and debugged the electrics and got the wipers, windscreen washers and horn to work again Smile

Didn't do too much. Sanding and spraying of small parts.

Today it's me and the brake system.

Got a new master cylinder and then hopefully we have brakes again and the mini goes back on the road.

Might have to crack open a cold one this afternoon in celebration.

Nicely done Dominique! Mini with brakes to follow tomorrow?

So I picked up the S bucket seats from the upholsterer today and got them fitted.

They're a bit too far forward in the car so need to get some extender brackets. Luckily Faraaz and Jared have come to my rescue. In the mean time, tomorrow morning I will have to swap the driver's seat with the original E seat as it feels very weird to drive the car right now.

Vinay just send those to me. I'm short enough to not need any additional brackets.

Plan for today is to hopefully put the radiator and fan back in. Bleed the whole system and having a running mini by tonight.

Had the same goal last week Saturday though... So let's see how it goes today.
