Nice to hear my old Mini buddy Bill Dean, is asking this interesting question
Thanks for answering my question! I will go through everything again. This 6,5mm is the correct distance between the two nuts on the clutch release plunger and the clutch housing itself.
Thank you
Great help
Keep up the good work
By the way I'm all the way from Greece
Thanks
Thanks for the info!
and Moose is better than Bear...
Great tech tips - thanks for adding the time marks for each section, that's a nice QOL thing.
QUESTION: Have you guys ever added a supercharger kit to a A-series motor, and if what did you use, and how was the installation and resulting performance/reliability? FYI - I have a carbed 1275 4-speed (totally rebuilt by 7 Enterprises a few years back), and I loves me some supercharger whine. =)
Can you guys do a write up, or walkthrough on how to get to the o2 sensor on a JDM mini? I'm not sure if I need to tear off the entire intake manifold to get to it.
Question for next week, Philip: Do you recommend a Mini aftermarket clutch + flywheel kit as the best available upgrade for an injected road car? MED? KAD?
Were you to film an installation video some day in future, given this is an engine out job, what else do you recommend refreshing/ upgrading while the motor assembly is on the bench?
Great videos, keep up the good work.
also: If i can suggest a topic to hit at some point; E10-fuel is a major threat for any classic car enthousiast. Is there any way of saving our beloved mini's from modern fuel?
Hi guys, can I use any regular coolant for a 93 rover mini (auto). Thanks!
is it better to primer the metal first then seam seal or seam seal first then primer?
Where are the aftermarket computers available,and do you have more info.
Hi again keep up those vids.
Can't find my serial number.

Have a 2000 Mini Cooper ( Final Run ) at 60 to 65 mph Rear end shimmy, could it be Bearings ?
I am in USA car is in England . just looking for some info.
pls. mention or put some links to available plugable tuneable ECU's (mine is a Japanese 1999 spi 1275 mini). Thanks. keep up the good work
Dont specialist components do a plug in ECU for spi/mpi? - commented before I watched.
They do! They also do the 5 port inlet kits. You won't get mega power from them though. You really need head porting and a matching cam for that.
@@Dagowly83 I suppose the advantage is that the home tuner can work on it when you start messing with engine changes. I have to say from the experience i've had with the software it's not as easy to work on as some of its rivals.
The most common clutch problem on spi is using a 180mm plate instead of the 190mm.
Think he meant which bearings for the wheels are the best quality.
My question... I just bought a used mini that sat for a long time. What are the first things I should be doing to it? Where do I prioritize service?
change all fluids, new plugs, new leads, and go from there.
I have a question, my car is a 1000cc one ita have a hs4 carb, it overflowed because the floating needle is damged, but now petrol comming out near the gasket that carburetor fix to the engine, what is the problem 😕
Sounds like your float needle is damaged?
Power from an MPi? Well.. I'm at 160bhp so far 😎
How 😮?
Your car is seriously shagged if the flywheel slips on the crank. If it's injection the ignition timing would also slip and stop the engine pdq.
