I've never seen a better technical presentation of a system. Thank you, you're an asset to the tech community.
Thank you kindly for that.
I agree with him, best presentation I have ever seen.
you sir are a proper gentleman. been searching for a PROPER video explaining how this fuel lines on the mini work. and i could not find any and not to mention as properly and patiently explained while displaying the said parts. cant thank you enough kind sir!!!
Thank you for such a compliment.
But he doesn't show you how to remove the quick connector? The hardest damn part.
@@Lottie-1 didn't I? I normally do.
You gave me much of courage that I could do it myself. Thank you for great vid. 👍
Thank you and good luck
Your videos are very well done and a huge help. Restoring a couple Mini's here in the USA, and you have made my efforts much easier. Your channel is my go-to resource
Thank you for that comment. Hope your Mini's come along well.
I was looking for answers with my mini cooper s 2009 and i couldn't find anybody. Thank you for your teaching and direction I was able to get my mini up and running. Have a great day and be safe.
Thank you for that and wish you all the best.
Just found your channel via yt recommendations. Love how in depth you are in you explanations, putting things into easy terms for us. Great documentation of your work, and I really appreciate you showing us the parts to familiarize things for us. Great vids hope you have more mini content
Thank you Aj, the Mini is still a favourite of mine but I'm on a Ford Focus as the mo but will probably have another Mini at some point.
Thank you very much, depressurizing is a life saver 👍💪
Thank you for commenting
Muchas gracias por el video, me sirvió mucho, por mi parte aproveche de que tenia todo fuera del estanque (la bomba en especial) y limpie a fondo con alcohol isopropilico, quedo como nuevo. 👌
Your welcome and great to hear my video helped you out. "Thank you very much for the video, it helped me a lot, for my part I took advantage of the fact that I had everything out of the pond (especially the pump) and I cleaned it thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol, it was like new."
Another job I’ll not be doing if I don’t have to! Very good vid again and perfectly explained. Thanks Mark. My one is earlier than that one so chance is it has the non replacement one.
Hi Patrick, I have to admit I didn't enjoy removing them. It just had to be done in the name of learning and understanding but I prefer safer tasks where there is no risk of fireballs.
Hello friend, I also cleaned the tank of my car like this without disassembling it from the car.
I didn't know the way to drain the gasoline from the tank by the electric pump.
Thanks to you I will make the drainage easier, effective and simple.
Glad it helped Joel.
Having just done this trouble shooting a problem, I can tell you how to easily install the filter side, if you follow the metal bracket from the pipes to filter housing, you will notice you can unclip that side, makes installing easy as no bending of pipes, and can use the metal hanger to easily steer pipes though to pump side
Thank you for that insight Decian.
Please show us
Thank you my friend! This is exactly the info I need. I placed my Mini S in storage 10 years ago with 37,000 mile on it. I will be visiting it in a few days and get it running again. The first chore is to completely drain or more acutely remove the gasoline from the fuel tank which is topped up full. I am a retired MB tech and some of the Benz's used this same kind of set up. That's when I started counting the days till I could retire! How to get to the fuel rail on a super charged engine? I have the repair manual waiting for me when I get back to the car. Thanks
Really pleased the video will help you. Sounds like you have one of the best MINI's made the original supercharged one. True fun before emissions played a bigger roll than driver enjoyment.
I so miss working on my BMW mini when it used to break every other week
They arn’t meant to break lol mine don’t do enough mileage to break.
@@CoatsandGaiters my Cooper s just always seemed to go wrong. Not major things just silly bits.
Gone now though as hardly got used and the road tax was ridiculous 🙄
@@stusoldcars4248 that’s the problem now the road tax is ludicrous. I drive very little so even a normal petrol 1.6 is £220 I think I paid in tax. I’d love the S but how can one justify it.
@@CoatsandGaiters after I changed my job and have a van I take home I just couldn't justify it to sit outside.
So sold it and bought a boring diesel fiesta which is £30 to tax so don't mind that sitting there. 👍
@@stusoldcars4248 You sound just like me. Sadly common sense has to kick in. I will start my white MINI videos soon which had oil starvation I believe. If I can get that running I will change from my petrol MINI to the 1.6 diesel as it's £30 tax a year and I don't mind it sat there all week for that. I only drive at weekends so paying £220 a year is just not logical for less than 3,000 miles a year.
Thanks for this. I will attempting to replace the filter housing shortly, as I believe I have an issue with the regulator not keeping pressure, takes a few goes of pump prime to get it started. Once running, all is good. It looks like the wire thing holding the grey pipe to filter housing is clipped on. Maybe I could try unclipping first before trying to wrestle it in and out of the hole.
I hope it helps you James. It might be easier for you as I am always camera conscious so have to prioritise the camera's view not what's easiest for me. Just watch the fumes as they are quite strong in an enclosed car.
@@CoatsandGaiters Yes. I changed the fuel filter yesterday as an exploratory mission, will both doors and tailgate open. Also melted the tar, like you did.
@@TheJameswort melts easily with petrol doesn't it.
Hello, did you replace the regulator ? What symptoms did you have ? I have a Problem with my MINI because it does not start the first time. It fires up the second time. I don't have any obd errors. Videos of trying to fire up my MINI are on my channel. Please help me thank you
@@brelo95 Hi, I had no issues I was just removing so viewers could see how to remove the pump. Have you tried turning the key to position 2 which activates the fuel pump and hold it there a couple of seconds before turning to the start position. See if giving the fuel pump longer to prime makes any difference.
I love the whole video and how you explained how can i reach you private i need help my Mini Cooper S R56 fuel gauge is not reading fuel accordingly I didn’t know that mini has two fuel gauge until this video
Thank you. My email is coatsandgaiters@btinternet.com but don't forget I'm not a mechanic so my knowledge is very limited.
Hello there, I am considering to replace the fuel filter inside that main body of the filter you just pulling out of MINI. Is that because it didn't have any difference than others, so you don't show that part of repairing before refitting the pump?
The early MINI's didn't have a replaceable filter and mine was one of those. mine had a metal non replaceable filter. I did try to remove it in the video. czcams.com/video/TA4guIX2CFM/video.html
Oh, my apology, I didn't see the reference in the back of the video. My car model is 05" R50 cooper, I think it has a changeable filter. Many thanks to this helpful video :)
Am teaching the “mechanics” with your videos and they seems to understand without knowing the language thats how good you are presenting your work sir! I rencetly wanted to change the fuel filter and we pulled everything outside cleaned the pippes and everything i also wanted to do it bcus my mini ran out of petrol with 10liters fuel on it so it had petrol but i think somthing was blocking the pomp from sucking the pertol on bottom after puting everything back together the Mini consumed all the fuel on it as it should but its not pulling hard like before it seems to be slower and am not very sure but i think its wasting more fuel then before and in the morning its not starting with the first time i need to try 2 times so it would start and during the day it start properly so can i please have your opinion what should be the problem? Thanks!
Thank you for the comment. If air is leaking into the pipes that could cause an issue possibly.
@@CoatsandGaiters Will check for that Thankss
What’s the role of syphon pipe ?
Sucks the fuel from the other tank as it’s a saddle tank with only one pump.
Hola buenas donde se puede conseguir el juego de juntas para el mini R56 /2007gracias
"Hi, where can you get the gasket set for the mini R56/2007, thanks" I would look on ebay for a completive price.
I've got a mini Cooper o3 petrol I've put a new petrol pump in the tank and petrol filter as well but I can't get no pressure from the pipe to the engine the fuse is new as well can you tell why no pressure going threw to the petrol pipe to the engine please my name darren
Is the pump actually running? can you hear it?
Hello, greetings from Sinaloa, Mexico. Change. the gasoline filter of the same car. But she no longer turned on. And it does not return the gasoline to the tank where the pump is. Can you help me. Thank you. Cheer up
Sadly we don't have that type in the UK, I would double check everything, maybe air is getting in and stopping the fuel being drawn up. Are all the rubber seals in place?
the petrol goes to fuel filter side and emptys the fuel pump side but it won't start what could be the problem
I'm still struggling to fully understand how it all works.
Donde consigo ese tipo de filtro ????
Not sure you can. They might say you have to buy all the housing as well and the pipes............."Where can I get that type of filter?"
How can i change the air filter i have the same?
In the UK I don't think you can change these filters like you can in the US models which have a removable type.
Ayuda Donde puedo comprar u ordenar ese tipo de filtro de gasolina ???😢
What's wrong with yours?..............."Help Where can I buy or order this type of gasoline filter"
Se daño el filtro y necesito un repuesto por que lo eh buscado en refaccionarias y en plataformas de autopartes y no lo eh encontrado
@@santiagosaavedra2523 You may be better buying a second hand one off ebay or from a scrapyard........."The filter is damaged and I need a replacement because I have looked for it in spare parts and auto parts platforms and I have not found it"
@@santiagosaavedra2523 ebay.............I "don't know if you can help me or recommend a platform like Aliexpres where I can buy it"
Gracias
I was told by a tech that you don't have to do the filter on the gen 1 mini even the Cooper
I don’t think we have a replaceable filter in the uk
I was removing the intieme housing of my metal one till you said, mine has an ereplacable metal fuel filter 😭😭😭😭😭
Aren't you posed to take the fuse out so the won't be any pressure before doing this
I did? I showed how to remove Fuse 20 and then start the engine to depressurise the system at the beginning of the video.
Спасибо, очень позновательно. Такая же система как на ROVER 75
Well I never knew that. Thank you ................"Thank you, very informative. Same system as on ROVER 75"
