picked up a mini with a metro turbo engine. its my first mini and may have take on to much with the turbo. the car seem solid. its just the electrics need sorting to the lights. the engine start will run for a bit then cuts out. think i will need the carb sorting. and it seem to run very rich and flood its self. there is some water in the oil. so i think it need a rebuild. but this is what you buy them for.

Hello, we all like photos.

Sounds like the fuel pressure regulator is either bust or set high.

the design shows a distinct lack of imagination,
talk about starting off with a clean sheet of paper, then not bothering to fucking draw on it,lol
