Bit of plumbing & wiring

Almost had a full day today which was great, progress a bit slow & it was pretty cold in the garage today!

Clutch: Decided to bleed this while access was 'good', had a bit of a panic when I turned the bleed nipple & the whole silver tube started to turn...  ran to Derek & he confirmed this was normal. Tested out my new brake bleeding tool that worked a treat, job done. Also was a bit thrown by the brass bolt in the clutch cylinder, Derek told me to bin it so I did & then everything was fine!

Plumbing: Unwrapped the radiator... found it had a massive dent in it that was not caused by me... assembled what I could to familarise myself & then moved onto pipes. No major issues & it sort of made sense, the T piece through me for a while & I need to finish that connection off. Dont seem to have a thin pipe from the water bottle at the front to the back of the engine.. & I'm mystified where the engine breather bottle attaches too... I have a molded in pipe & it doesn't seem long enough to reach any suitable engine connection points... Heater controls all connected with no issues

Accelerator cable: seems very long? & looks like you have to snip off the stop one end & then reattach a cable stop... I'll investigate what others have done...

Not a bad day, abit it slow but at least I didn't break anything... but someone has taken a hammer to my radiator during its journey to me...
