So I’m fairly new to classic minis and just bought a 1997 Austin mini with a 1275 engine , so when I bought it the guy said on light throttle it’s fine on full throttle it’s a bit boggy and also a leak on the mechanical fuel pump ,
So I drove it home about 10 miles and then replaced the fuel pump gasket

Now the car will start then tick over but when you go to drive it , it backfires and struggles to idol and cuts out
Any advice would be amazing

Many thanks Andy
