Default End of core plug saga

Well it got to Saturday morning and still no core plugs in the post from BCL !

In desperation I looked on ebay to see if I could see something from another car that looked the right size - the original Mini looked close. I managed to find a Mini specialist close to where I live and took the old core plug along to compare. They are identical !

Jacked her up and put the axle stands under and 15 minutes later anti-freeze in and running - what a piece of piss !

I wish all the d.i.y. jobs went like that !

Next job is to fit my new high torque starter.

Thanks again to all

Greg
