Hi there, I need abit of assistance! Smiley
 
I think the clutch in my 1996 Mini (Single Point Injection) is on its ways out, as it slips very badly when you change up through the gears quickly and the biting point is very high up on the pedal.. I think the clutch oil seal is leaking which is causing the slipping coupled by a 80k mile 13 year old clutch  Cheesy

I have read a Haynes guide and it seems a reasonable straight forward job just a lot of dismantling.. Smiley

Does anyone know if you need a special tool or something to change a clutch oil seal or any tips on doing it or is it just a case of screw driver..... ping it out.... pop new one in. Roll Eyes   

I haven't got a flywheel puller and a long breaker bar for the flywheel and bolt does anyone have one i could borrow when i come to renew it?
Also does anyone know where there are cheap "injection" Clutch kits (as they are different from other clutch assemblies) as there are some on Minisport for £125!!!!! Shocked Shocked Shocked

TIA Chris Smiley
