You're not the only one that hates those spring clips that are used on water pipes. I hate them too! I get the point, they are spring loaded so only apply the required amount of pressure (jubilee clips can be over/under tightened) but they are so so much easier!

I've just bought an electric blue r53 but I love the black and chrome. My 1st car was a black and chrome leyland mini do I've kinda gone full circle. Anyway had my car for 3 weeks and timing chain went. £900 later and it's up and running nicely. It's in amazing condition for its age. Never known a car to have so many mixed feelings for but it's a joy to drive. I wish there were more mini guys like you based in South devon

Great video! That engine looks as grot as mine. I am about to order one of these kits from yourself. I have the gearbox off for doing the clutch, given it's a couple of hoses & electrical connectors and the A/C pump then the engine can be yoinked out I am seriously tempted to do this. Also need to do the CV boots like yours! Don't think my rocker cover has ever been off as the bolts have disintegrated on the front so that will be fun!

Hi, great video. I might have missed it but did you drain the coolant first before changing the oil cooler gasket/orings?

To change the O-ring's you don't :) as long as you don't remove the coolant lines you don't have to drain it :) might lose a bit of oil for you :) Thanks so much for watching and apologies for the late reply. Miriam xx

I say on the manifold cover, if the company can't send you one undamaged; then they don't need their name on the cover. Sand it back to metal and put your own color on it. Then you have a nicer looking piece w/o some company's name ruining the engine bay.
