Subject: [Mini] Conversion of brake limiting valve to adjustable bias valve.
Message-ID: <CANkuONfdDnm8J3oESXALbjRXXJEuhAudkxYZRqMdMa3DM4QDwg@mail.gmail.com>

Is it a big job to converts mini brake balancing valve to work as a
variable fixed bias valve?

If it can be done, which donor do you need and how do you do it?

Being forced to have a clear out. My old Mini Magazines have been in a box
in the shed for about two years, wondered where they'd gone after I moved.
Binders are a bit knackered but the magazines should mostly be OK.

Collection from Wigan or they're going to the tip

Wooden planks work great IF you can drive the car.? But, if it's not 
drive-able for whatever reason, you still need to be able to get a jack 
under it.

Subject: [Mini] Knuckle joint cups
Message-ID: <f8ea35a3-f369-1b8c-3a65-7102b39bc81a@comcast.net>

Any down and dirty tricks for removing the Nylon knuckle joint cup from 
the rear radius arm when the hole into which it fits has rusted 
internally?? I changed out the entire right-hand side rear suspension on 
my '81 last weekend and it took me almost three hours just to get that 
stupid cup out of the arm -- plus another hour or so to remove the 
rubber cone spring which had seized itself to the Adjust-a-Ride 
trumpet.? There's got to be a quicker way to do it.

Before I attack the left-hand side, after I drain and remove the fuel 
tank, I'd like to see of there's an easier way to remove that Nylon cup 
from the radius arm.? I'm thinking maybe I could hit it with a heat gun, 
on a low or mid setting to keep from melting it, in order to make it 
more pliable.? Then I might be able to wedge a small screwdriver between 
the cup and the arm hole in several places.? That would give me enough 
room to spray some penetrant into those areas to, hopefully, dissolve 
some of the rust before I start trying to pull and pry it out.

Your thoughts?!?

John

Sounds like a perfect angle of attack! just wipe all the grease out first. If struggling with prising, keep upping the heat until something bad happens to the nylon cup and it comes out one way or another! Worth having some water in a squirty bottle on standby...
Brute force and ignorance as I used to tell the apprentice at the garage ?

I grip the protruding edge of the cup in large pliers or a Mole wrench and 
twist it. This makes a gap to get a screwdriver down between the cup and 
hole, and then you can dig the cup out. There's no real substitute for 
brute force and ignorance!

I hit them with a small blowtorch.  They burn and shrink. Then you can just
pull the remains out with molegrips or pliers.

Clean out the seat thoroughly and add a thin smear of coppaslip before you
fit a new cup to make it easier next time.

Cheers,

You guys are great!? With your tips and tricks, it should be a lot 
easier to get the left one out.

One trick I learned after I finally got the right cup out...? A drum 
sander attachment on a Dremel (or any other rotary) tool works great for 
getting rust and other contamination out of the seat before fitting a 
new cup.? And, yes, I did apply a thin coat of grease to the seat after 
I cleaned it out.

Subject: [Mini] Bleeding masters
Message-ID: <CANkuONdjVf9WB5Yjt6RHxUoikfuqVBxX3MPCVqtgjWKZrr5+Qg@mail.gmail.com>

As I have had the brake pipe unions off the master cylinder (vertical type
no servo), what would be you thoughts on how to get the air out before I
start bleeding the brakes proper.

The setup is flexi hose (braided) off banjos on the master all the way to
each corner less rigid pipe from the rear seat panel to the flexi subframe
to rear slave cylinders.
