Awesome mini.

I'm not gonna make it this year... car still has to pass VI, got a list of little things that need to be done.

Gearbox didn't want to give me second gear anymore so I had to replace it.

Could you just switch the polarity of the wires to fix the gauge issue?

40-50 sounds right when I rev it up. Not sure of the oil weight was going to stick in something thicker I think.

I will be around all day Monday would appreciate a hand for sure if you're available. Should be at the shop by 9:30.
