EP2: Cleaning the HS4 SU Carburettor | CLASSIC MINI 25 RESTORATION

Welcome!
This episode is about cleaning the HS4 SU carburettor of the classic mini.
The carburettor will probably need a full rebuild kit, but for now I'm just cleaning and inspecting it.
Feel free to leave a comment!
Kind Regards

This is the best way to show this process. No audio needed just clear video. Well done.

Excellent video. Did a similar but not as good job on my HS4 recently, came across your video trying to learn more about them. Very useful insight into the parts. Thank you for making and uploading this

Excelente video, yo tengo el mismo carburador y no me atrevía a intervenirlo. Ahora lo haré con toda seguridad

Excellent presentation. Somehow I did not miss the voice or some horrible music ! I am assuming you did not remove the metering needle from the piston. Any reason for that ?

I also have the FZX1415 HS4 carb on my Mini. I recently bought an SU tuning/servicing book and although hundreds of SU's are listed, this particular one is not present in the appendix tables. Any idea what the differences are? Are you planning to show how to center the needle & do the "drop" test on the piston?

[@ryancamilleri9473]

fantastic video keep it up by any chance what type of oil you used?

[@henriquepovoa9624]

Hi, great video! but i have a question, What book did you use in the video to see how to assemble the carburettor again?

[@user-qs9um3uf6s]

What solvent/ type/ brand degreaser do you use Cheers

Hi from Chile. We are restoring a 1982 Austin Mini HL that has been unused for over 15 years.

[@ClassicMinishorts]

Hi, in the 25 HS4 do you know which is the standard carb needle?

[@corneliucondroman393]

What quantity of oil you used for carburetor ?
