Hello All,

I'm In really bad need of someone who can fix my little Mini :thumbsup:

I have got help from friends and family over the weekend, but I cant keep asking for more help.
Basicly...

The Mini iddle's perfect,
Soon as I open the throttle... it die's, lacks power, and wants more fuel.

I try and get a picture of the Dizzy so you can see how far out it is.
But...

I would like to find a really good Garage, that deal's in Mini's to get her tuned right.

Needs Timing, Mixtures, Dizzy, Timing Belt's, Needles, And setting up all again!
I dont really have the Time to do it. or to get someone else to do it.

Needs someone who knows what there doing, and can do it in a couple of days.
I live in Wisbech, Near Peterborough.

My Boss told me he got his cooper S, done at A - Z mini's in Spalding? anyone know there number?
Edit: Just found what its called A-Z Mini Centre Sutton St James where it is, I have number prob closed now and tomorrow though :/


How much do you all think it would cost to get this done?


Any Advice on what to do will be greatfull. (p.s I go back to work 2nd Jan)
so If I can get it in a garage for this weekend, it be great! or... something else?

cheers,
Chez

but would he fix the car as In Timing?
sorting pretty much everything again.

Plus, he is rather along way for me to drive in the state the car is in.
If there is any garage within 30miles, I can make it.

I will go to him after its set up though, and when the car is running ok.

Mini's dont have a timing belt,they use a chain. shouldnt need to touch that.

thats the one.
from what I was told, when the engine was off, he might have changed it. and put it on wrong.

Im really stuck what to do.
I probably print off that other thread I made, go outside tomorrow with my mini book,
and have a good read. (but dont think I could fix it)
