I have managed to identify that the colour is Cyprus Blue Metallic. The colour code may be 97000-Z2J as I’ve seen that listed on an old touch up pencil but that also lists several other numbers so I will seek to confirm it.

Anyone know the steel wheel colour as asked above please.

I wonder how many 21 year old Jinny’s are left. Not many I would guess due to the dreaded tin worm.

Just thought I'd add a query to this old posting rather than start a new one. There is what appears to be a breather pipe on the engine  between the rocker cover and inlet manifold.  From the oil spray on the rocker cover I can only assume that the hose fitting is leaking slightly.  That end of the hose seems to spin on a fitting fastened into the rocker cover but I'm not aware whether its supposed to spin or not.  I asked the parts sales person at the local dealer as to what that fitting is but he was unable to find any details on their system.   Can anyone advise how that hoses is meant to seal as I assume this leakage will be affecting it's running and can only get worse if not addressed.

Thanks

The green thing is the PCV valve.
The seal is an expensive rubber grommet fitted into the rocker cover, then the PCV valve just pushes in and expands it for a perfect seal. (When new- after a couple of years of oil and heat the rubber shrinks and goes soft then it leaks)

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

Many thanks, I’ll order a new PCV valve and seal from Martin. It’s lasted 22 years so not too bad.

Arrived in the Lakes last night for a break. Meant to post this then but was tired and very hot. At a nearby quick stop the passenger electric window ceased working when in the part open position. Neither drivers door nor passenger door button for that window worked suggesting it’s a fuse or the motor. I’d like to get it sorted today ( Saturday)so we can close the window for security and have no electrical equipment with me so will look for a garage that’s open. Is there a history or known problem with window motors ? Do the Windows have separate fuses as the drivers window is working fine?

Thanks,
Paul
