Need Parts & ...
This is my first posting so bare with me if I sound like an idiot ... honestly i'm not!
Help! I'm in desperate need of some Classic Mini repair parts! I am a US Service person stationed overseas in Okinawa, Japan. I & my family are currently on leave to the staes, visiting our in-laws in North Dakota & i'm hoping that i'll be able to find the parts that I need before we must return to Japan, on the 31st of July. Besides the language barier - repair parts in Japan are outragiously exspensive!!! What I'm lacking is a thourough Parts Diagram Breakdown (*parts breakout...) for the complete vehicle that will help me correctly identify the exact parts that i need; by their manufacture name & mfg. part number. The only manual I have is the "Hayes; Mini Service & Repair Manual - 1969-2001 (up to X registration)" published 2003. My vehicle is registered (& titled) as a 1995 Rover Mini but I believe that it is really an older vehicle that has been 're-registered' (*as a '95' in Okinawa, Japan). I need these parts to get the vehicle re-running in order to pass the compulsary Japanesse "inspection process" ... and eventually be able to bring it the vehicle back to the States when I leave Okinawa, Japan in JUNE2006 (*sceduled to to be stationed in Tacoma, Washington - anyone in that area could help with info to get the car back to the states...?). I have been frequently deployed & have had very little time to locate either the parts-breakout diagram/manual or a locally convenient dealer/distributor. I've even thought of searching for a Classic Mini car club but again have been hampered by being deployed & the lack of time & available internet resources. Please, if you could redirect me to any & all sources that might be able to help - I would be very greatful. (*The basic parts I know that I need are; fan belts = the car is equipt with AC, right-rear break cylinder rpr-parts = it's leaking at the wheel now, "Switch Direction indicator, BAU5345-?" ... I'm sorry that I was not thinking to bring the VIN number with me - that could have helped determine some of the car's history. Engine is the 1275, automatic) Thanks, Michael
