Thanks all, sorry to sound thick but to check the return spring am I looking inside or outside the car?
Also will check if clutch pedal moves when I press brake pedal tomorrow, like I said this does not happen all the time, maybe 2 presses out of 20.

Thanks

Hotel/Bed&Breakfast National Rally

I read in MM that a list of Hotel or Bed & Breakfast places near the rally is on the MMOC web site, I must be getting past it or having a Senior Moment as I can not find it.
Can anyone help or do I have to bring the Mondeo with caravan again?

Dear Ripped Rear Rubber Sealers, whilst helping my husband replace the rear window seal, I discovered much to my amazement that the technical terminology used is much the same as when fitting a kitchen, a bathroom or a new roof headlining. "It's only a 5 minute job" he said and I believed ...

Just a big thanks to the organisers of the Rally, my Wife and I really enjoyed it as it was our first rally with Exorset my 1961 2 door saloon, not much fun attending rallies in a Mondeo. In case anyone is wondering why I called her Exorset, it is a tribute to my late Mother in Law and my nickname f...

O/S Rear Wing

I do not have another wing to try, I will have to wait until another rally to check other Minors, may I point out that the wing is not rotten in any way, the steel actually contours in that way, I have taken the wing in that area back to bare metal, it does seem strange though, I am not sure if they...

Temp Guage

Problem solved all working now, my thanks to Rob for all his help, my thanks also to Maplins who sold me a misdescribed part and wasted four hours of my time - "Wonder how that happened" was their only reply not even a sorry.
Cheers everyone
