Hi,

I have a 1994 Rover Mini 1275 Automatic.

I have just brought a second hand HIF44 1 3/4" Carburettor and have stumbled upon a problem.

I can't connect my governor rod (kickdown rod) to the throttle due to there is no slot for it.

Does anyone know the part I need to make it work?

Thankyou in advance,

P.S. 1st time owning an automatic mini.

I will add a photo this afternoon you can tell me exactly which part you want and then I can tell you what it's name is and if it's the right part how much.

Ok thankyou this is the carb I have at the moment.

Just need to find the part to connect the governor rod to the carb.

Something wrong with your carburettor .... has it been used like that ?  or has it had a rebuild or similar because the lever quadrant is the wrong way around, the butterfly is either in 180 degrees out of design intent or it won;t actually rotate.....

my carb is identical and works fine..I believe there a quite a few different hif 44 models

This carb came off a mini minus I was told by previous owner, the carb works fine.

I was also thinking it is the wrong way round from what I've seen on other hif44's...think some work needs doing on this

You are missing the plate and support for throttle and choke cable .. that's why it's all changed ...

That's a HIF6 not a HIF44, it was half of a set of twins originally. You can make anything work with anything though

Cheers Scott that answers a lot of questions
