hey guys, fitted the inch and 3 quarter on, and now the mini doesnt start, it does for like 3 secs then stops and wont start again, i adjusted the bridge level or whatever, (the nut on the bottom) and havnt tried to start it yet but i dont know if this will work, does anyone have any other suggestions?

when i put the 1 3/4 on mine it was the same thing it was way to rich and was just drenching the plugs in fuel , check your plugs if they are dry more fuel , if are wet back it off

didn't see that coming at all....


what do your parents think of this? why aren't they telling you to get someone who knows what they're doing to sort it out?

oh Well you have four years to get it sorted

I've got a dumb question (sorry not trying to steal the thread meeni).. I don't know much about carbs.. I unscrewed the little black cap and pulled it out and put it back in (i was curious).. but now the cars not starting properly either.. I have the choke out but it just seems to idle really low and die out, unless I give it revs.. Was I not supposed to unscrew that little black cap?

because the only way to learn is to do it urself, u dont learn by paying someone to do it, and gee thattle come in handy if it does it in the middle of no where

Hmmm yes I see time to get Grandpa out.

Get a professional out to help. But hey don't you work part time in a Mini Specialist workshop? That's what you told us.

Maybe if you weren't such a pain in the ass a nearby enthusiest might help.

You crack me up Sean, when you waste peoples time by saying 'I'm just a poor 14 yo with no money' yes I've seen your stupic ebay questions!!!! So that race car is a no no now?

I just found out the little black cap is the piston damper.. can taking this out and putting it back in affect anything? anyone?

thanks

(sorry again meeni, just didn't think it was worth making a new topic for)

"because the only way to learn is to do it urself, u dont learn by paying someone to do it, and gee thattle come in handy if it does it in the middle of no where"

Not true at all. I have learnt allot from others. You do learn from paying others.

Sean before you spend any $$$ on your Mini going on your previous threads why not an English tutor?

I read the topic in the forum section, here's my reaction.



Sorry.

Where'd the carb come from?

it shouldnt effect anything, rupert piss off, i do go to a mini place to work every now and again, doesnt mean i know absolutely everything, im not a pain in the arse, plenty of people have helped me out while ive been buillding the car, and i didnt say im a poor little 14 year old with no money, i sed this looks good because im looking to start racing and im on a budget, get it right please, and dont post in my thing if all ur gunna do is have a go at me and not help me, thats what chat rooms are for, this is a forum designed to help people not make them not want to carry on with things because they think they have really screwed up wen they havnt

as ben said, it starts (means yes fuel)
and then stops (maybe too much fuel)

so looking at the carby from the top, turn the nut (on the bottom of) the carby anti-clockwise
this will lean it, and hopefully stop floading
