Not quite a mini but an old engine issue just the same....
1964 1200 Triumph Hearld.
been stood a while (well a year) new battery, plugs and fresh petrol and started no issues, ticks over fine no issues however when past 1/2 throttle it is really hesitant and starts spluttering and dies.
Any ideas most welcome
Cheers

Does the Herald have a stromberg carb? If so check the condition of the diaphram.
