This softened them and made the job a lot easier.

Thanks Harry. Will order a spare 'just in case'.

IIRC (It's been a *long* time since I owned a Mini), there's trick
with
the corrugated ones to fitting them, involving putting them in a 'G'

ISTR using Swarfega to lubricate them...

I beg your pardon? D


A delicate mixture of parafin or disel, washing up liquid and sand.

Try it. Nothing better for getting ingrained oil off yer hands



Then, all you have to do is to get rid of the smell of the diesel!

Thats what swarfega smelt of anyway.

Just fondle yer balls and replace it with the smell of Thrush...
