Christ you are busy mate! Definitely time to make a nice spreadsheet order book. I’d love to see the rocker assembly build, if you have time 😵😵 Keep up the hard work, glad you’re back in good health. If you were close I’d love to come and give you a hand.

[@garydempsey6124]

Top man Billy team work to make the Dream work. Glad to see the garage so busy lads. Great bit of camera/editing by Billy and your man doing all the talking isn't half bad either 😁. Great work lads top notch as all ways 👍

Thanks David

[@paulrobinson3528]

I'm a coded welder in a past job so a few bits of metal to lift a little bit of metal out of a engine bay is no problem, no problem at all.

[@HREIRL]

Top sutff

[@tonycamplin8607]

Really great to see you back, didn't know that you weren't well so pleased to hear that you're better now. Have you managed to look at my comments on rocker shafts that I sent in response to your video. I looked but I can't find it on your list. Looking forward to the future proposed videos.

[@HREIRL]

Not yet let me go back through the comments Tony and take a look :)

[@smokinrider]

Had a mini once that ran like shit forward misfiring and spluttering. But ran fine in reverse!! The old man said swap out the coil and hey presto all sorted and ran fine.

[@HREIRL]

Amazing how simple parts can make such a difference

[@turbocoopersport3730]

So glad you're feeling better and past COVID! Looking forward to the updates!!

[@HREIRL]

Thanks TCS

[@guygreengrass3963]

Happy to hear your over COVID ,I know how you felt! Would luv vid on rockers as I have one in bits waiting to put together, also thanks for the tip on plugs that might explain when my no. 3 cylinder keeps going down. Can't wait for your next vid, all the best.

[@HREIRL]

Thanks Guy

[@johnthorburn3712]

Id love to see a day at the race track episode to get an idea of that part of your adventures! My first car was a '69 850 MK2, Im 69 now, a Kiwi, still wish Id never sold it!

[@1380flip]

Good to see you back on your feet. . .

[@HREIRL]

Thanks buddy 👍

[@demetrispatrikarakos5565]

Glad you are feeling better. Amazing content and we are eager to see HRE hardware products for sale! Is there a chance you can have an apprentice through some work support program to help you with your projects?

[@HREIRL]

Thanks Demetris

[@peterdausel7387]

Yes please all tech stuff you can com up with is good. So pleas make a episode about the rockers 👍🏻

[@HREIRL]

Thanks Peter we are on it.

[@franciscomelendez3894]

Paul... Only on my laptop do I get the sound.! 😁

[@HREIRL]

Thank Francisco

[@paulrobinson3528]

C.A.D. Took you so long Paul. Your Cardboard Aided Design is fabulous. P.S. Your T shirts are really nice nice quality and standing the test of time. No colour loss and no shrinkage so far!

[@HREIRL]

Great to heat Paul keep testing 😁

[@paulrobinson3528]

@@HREIRL I need a freebie to test then 🤣🤣

[@douglasrichardson8525]

Just a note to your bad plugs, my Cooper refused to start on one morning and in the end was tracked down to 2 of the spark plugs had failed between the insulator and the electrode so all that appeared at the tip was a little white smoke and no spark......

[@HREIRL]

Thats a really good example Douglas. Its amazing how the simple things can make such a difference

[@michalchlup6758]

Thanks for the video, Paul. Glad you're feeling better now. Out of curiosity, what spark plugs brand do you generally recommend/use on Minis? (Considering quality)

[@mikeakhurst1855]

How many times can a head be skimmed before you have to replace it?

[@HREIRL]

Realistically there is a thickness in the deck of the head that needs to be mantianed some where around 5mm so a head can be skimmed down to that if compression is kept reasonable much after that you will see cracking and failure of gaskets

[@paulrobinson3528]

2nd, dam, i missed 1st lol. glad your feeling better now

[@HREIRL]

So close!

[@iainmacknish5220]

No sound here either. All your other videos have sound through.

[@HREIRL]

That is really odd Iain we have checked on a few other devices and we are all geting sound 🤔

[@gerryellis3847]

No sound for some reason

[@HREIRL]

Hi Gerry, I've just had a look there now and the sound appears to be working fine on our side, maybe try refreshing or double check the volume settings?
