[mini1994]

Thanks for your reply , one like this one but with AG on it

Then it's not a carb mini it's spi

[mini1994]

Thats a good one but there is a carb in it so does than mean i dont need the ecu at all , will it start without it ?

Does the engine number match the V5?

[mini1994]

Sorry what is the v5 ?

[The Marcos Graveyard]

V5 = Log book.

[mini1994]

i checked and the engine number doesnt match the logbook

[The Marcos Graveyard]

Obviously been a swap at some point, does it at least start with a 12 ?

[mini1994]

When i bought the car it was starting and driving perfect then i put it fully apart and now im putting it back together , i dont have the loom and fuel tank in so i cant check would it start without the ecu

[The Marcos Graveyard]

With a carb you dont need an ECU, instead you have a dizzy and a coil. You also dont need a fuel tank either, just anything to hold a bit of petrol.

[mini1994]

That is perfect thank you very much for your help , i will be starting it soon just have to get the loom on , thanks again

This is interesting.

I myself have just bought an automatic '94 Cooper. I bought it before realising it had the ECU removed and a carb installed. Turns out the previous owner spent over €1000 getting the conversion done, along with a modified centre exit exhaust.

but how do people feel about the conversion in general?

And what tuning possibilities should I take advantage of?

[The Marcos Graveyard]

Is your Mini still an automatic ?
