hey,
my inlaws have a sweet little old mini (been in their family for donkeys) but now just sits in the garage, rather sad really.
so I had a go at getting it running etc and had some success......new plugs, timing, reset tappets, pulled carb apart and did a quick clean up etc..
However, its doing some 3 cylinder action and one of the spark plugs is really greasy compared to the rest.....what does this mean? im guessing either worn rings? or valve stem seals or something...?
The inlaws are not gonna wanna throw too much money at it really so how can i find out further what it is without pulling too much apart..?
Cheers
also - think its a 850cc?
