Hi all, newbie here looking for a little advice please - just bought a classic Mini last year.
Mini Thirty 1989 (998cc)
My Mini has been well looked after all its life, but its started playing up as soon as I have tinkered with it....
I changed the starter motor, lots of wire around that area.. and replaced the exhaust with Play downpipe / Maniflow from the standard pipe, lots of moving pipes etc to get it tightened up - since then it ran fine but gradually has reduced to only a tick over and would cut out spluttering when revved. It wont even fire now.
I've changed the coil, leads, plugs, cleaned the dizzy - no go. I'm wondering if i've knocked something taking the starter out? when i turn it over i can smell petrol out from the back of the exhaust? any ideas? fuel pump?
Would be appreciated.
Thanks
Chris
