Re: Somewhere that'll do a good engine rebuild?
Oh no... I've just picked my T25 up from Westgate today so must have seen yours in there. Have you spoken to Chris Cross on Green Lanes? I'm not sure if they do full rebuilds but they definitely know their way around an engine so may be able to help.

Re: Changed rotor arm and now it won't start...
Fixed it! While getting of the little clamps that held the cap in place I had dislodged a wire next to the distributor.... Easy to see in the light, but thanks for your help otherwise it's not necessarily what I would have looked for.

Re: Changed rotor arm and now it won't start...
Yep, keeping them alive is fun! I need to learn more about the mechanics side though...
Will double check all HT leads tomorrow in the daylight - sounds like a reasonable solution, as otherwise don't see how changing an easy bit like this would stop it working.

Hello! Just bought a T25 - looking for North London mechanic
Hello! I've just a bought a T25 again, after selling my last one a few years ago... Happy days!
Can anyone recommend a good garage / mechanic in North London? There's a fair bit of work that needs doing unfortunately and would like to take it somewhere I can trust.
