Hi,
Trying to get a project car (1998 cooper sportpack) started that has been laid up for years.
It now turns over and has a good spark, the starter seems sluggish even with the plugs out so not sure it will turn over the motor with the plugs in.
I wanted to push fresh fuel through the system, the tank was empty but reeks of old fuel.
I put in 5 ltrs of fresh fuel and would like to open it at the engine end and let the pump push the old crap through.
When I turn the ign i cant hear any pump running, normal? Is there an easy way to test the pump and open the fuel system to get fuel pumped through before a start attempt?
I'm used to old minis but no experience with the mpi models.
Regards
