was working fine driving fine , parked it went to start wont start.has spark everywhere it needs to, has fuel every it needs to , starter sounds fine , just sorta kicks over sounds normal but wont start .
any help would be appreciated

It's hard without seeing it. At a guess, is your choke working? or could be ignition timing?

choke and accelerator all fine and working , i only just got it dyno tuned so shouldnt be the ignition timing should it?

Next one down

Yes, I would tend to think then that ignition timing should be OK. Have you pulled any plugs out? are they wet?

If it's got fuel and spark it should run.

Have you cold started it since having it dynoed?

why would they be wet and what would cause this?ill check now

They would be wet if they are not actually sparking in the combustion chamber. While they may do so when they are out, it is much 'harder' for them to do so under compression.

Rip off yer Dizzy cap an make sure its all turning, strange things happen in there

ripped out all plugs they were black as crap not wet , i cleaned em up put em all back in started for a bit then went back crap ,pulled one back out and it was black as crap again?

Remember having same problem & symptoms in my Cooper S many (about 30!) years ago, stopped to buy a Pizza, came out and car wouldn't start - Condensor had failed.

ill change all plugs , also only new to minis were and what does the condenser look like?

round looking thing in your dizzy

Sound like it's running quite rich. Is your choke stuck on? I doubt that it were your condensor, as it wouldn't start at all and your plugs would be wet, not black.

What type of carbie(s) have you got?

Do you have the pulsar dizzy still?
If so, I don't think you have a condensor. You need to check for spark at the lead. Maybe the ignitor module in the dizzy might have failed.

It would also pay to check all the connections on the coil, dizzy etc for any loose or disconnected wires.

Edit Sorry - didn't read that it had actually started. Agree with above. It if was ignitor related, it wouldn't start at all.

I think he has twin 1.25 SU's now.

I have had condenser's fail before and they would still idle but run like crap under load. Does sound like it is rich though.
