Spammers and the obnoxious
(Preview)
There are lots of trolls and spammers on the Net. We are being pestered by one of them. I am aware that Nick, Rik and Rex are very busy with car projects, and making videos about them. Maybe the solution is a 'Spam alert' button - if more than a certain number of members of this site hit it, the troll goes o...

re: "The Exhaust causality"

Hi Guys, A question, since you have to bin the distributor (who needs 19th century tech anyway). Where will you get the cam and crank signals?. I'm guessing there had to be a cam/crank sensors for the injection but were they inside the distributor or separate? I'm across the pond and haven't yet found...

Following a cheese-induced nightmare, I have come to the realisation that we need to know what's under the sheet.... It clearly isn't a Christmas tree, a kettle or Michele Mouton....so what is it?

Fuel tank. - Most likely pre-made unit with pump and filter installed. Although probably slightly modified. Speaker holes. - :) Fuel lines/pipes. - Plu...

Air con, rear wiper and other refinements?
(Preview)
With so little space for even the most essential components (like a sump), is there any scope at all for air con to be fitted to the car? Minis sold in Japan from around 1994 had an air conditioning system fitted to them. God knows how they fitted it all in under the bonnet, and the interior parts of the syst...

Heaters, wiper motors, Jig Thoughts
(Preview)
Having built and rallied four minis from age 17 to 30 something, and modifying many mini heaters to get better window demisting whilst rallying and trying to get better wipers too, I am hoping that Nik and Richard have done their usual great job of improving what they touch when it comes to Binkys heat...
