Hi all. Only got my first ever mini yesterday.
1992. Mini Cooper(Rover).
Owner refurbed engine etc and I noticed strong fuel smell upon driving it away. Today too. Heavy fuel smell in cabin.
Opened bonnet today and seen big cavities today all left open , leading fumes in behind the dashboard. ie I can see almost entire engine from the inside of the car as I look through the glove compartment.
Any advice on what can be fitted between dash and engine to block out the fumes please?
Any advice please. As it stands i'm dizzy from driving the car today because of the smell.
I've attached two pics...one looking from under bonnet and other looking from glove compartment.
Thanks in advance guys! pic1.jpg 96.98K 10 downloads pic2.jpg 34.75K 6 downloads
