I'm trying to get my mini started after a year in the garage.
its using twin weber 45s on a 16v vauxhall engine
initially it started and ran for 2 or 3 seconds than cut out with a puff of white smoke and a strong smell of fuel.
i put some fresh fuel in
made sure there is a steady supply from the fuel pump
it has a strong spark on all cylinders
there is fuel getting to the jets
the spark plugs remain dry despite repetitive turning of the engine
the jets appear clean and free from dirt
and i've just tried some easy start...
phew... it now won't start at all..
i'm at a loss.
any got any ideas?
thanks,
James
