Nice to work on!

Post by 67-2door »

Seeing as the weather was so nice for the time of year today I dragged my Minor out of the garage and spent a pleasant couple of hours replacing a bump stop, greasing the front suspension and sorting out one or two little jobs that were advisories on the last mot, very much enjoyed it too :D .
Then I decided to replace the clutch master cylinder on my MG ZT, spent over 3 hours in pain, contorted, laying in a footwell, cutting my arms to bits on sharp things :evil: .
If only everything in life was as straightforward as a Morris!

A master cylinder on a minor is not much fun either!

Only if done by the book.
Roy would do one in a pit stop! Not by the book either.
