No doubt many Minis and other A Series classics will be undergoing engine rebuilds over the winter, so Mini Spares is offering two types of rocker shaft end washers which should always be replaced when performing a top-end overhaul.

Rocker Shaft End Washer – part number 6K555 – is the standard end washer for the rocker shaft. Priced at £0.96 each incl. VAT

Rocker Shaft Spring Washer – part number 2A18 – is a spring washer that goes on both ends of the rocker shaft to keep tension on the #1 & #8 rockers and is priced at £0.64 each incl. VAT.

Mini Spares can also supply rocker shaft spacer shims or a complete kit.

In 1970, 850cc Minis with engine number 85H101on had a remote type gearbox case. This was fitted with a ‘magic wand’ type gear lever which was held up by a plate underneath.
This type of gear change requires a detent spring, which in time can lose its effectiveness or even break.

Fortunately, Mini Spares has the answer and can offer a detent spring for these pre-rod type gearboxes as part number 2A3647 at just £2.16 incl. VAT

parts and products that are no longer available from the original sources.
