Might be able to help you there. Will check in the shed tomorrow. That's the one with the little L at the end that fits into the hole in the inside door handle? How long does it need to be? Might be I've only got a rear one so need to check the length.

He rang the other day then said he had to go and would ring back. Never did. The kits are cheap enough and fairly easy to fit. Did my drivers door a few weeks ago. Been buggering about with a Mountfield petrol mower today i got given me, got it sorted couple of new cables. Thought it would cut the places the ride on won't get at, it's self propelled. Trouble is the bloody thing goes faster than i can.

Just spoken to him, having trouble with his camshaft AGAIN. Didn't someone think "why are the camshafts failing"? It's being starved of oil for fecks sake. Had to do my Mountfield today as well, float sticking and starving it of petrol. Sorted and need my running shoes.
