Stopped to see if there was anything i could do for her.. :cheese: and the mini of course.
Turns out the car had been running bad and getting worse for sometime
and she reckoned she was getting about 7 mpg..!!!!
Had a look around, plugs and leads etc were all new..
Got it started and as soon as you try accelerate away it died.
She told me a few folk had a look and tinkered, she then went to a garage hence the new parts and they said the carb was knackered engine on its way out blah blah blah.
She told me the exhaust was blowing a bit at the front and this was fixed a couple days ago, so had a look at the air filter and it was black, i mean black as coal.
Took it out and hey presto, running sweet as a nut.. got a txt today to say thanks and that the car is now doing about 6 times more to the gallon.
So word of advice, if the exhaust is blowing at all at the front it will choke the air filter..!! so if you car runs rough, check this first...!!
Another happy mini ..!
