Stripped the injector out and started unbolting the manifold. Replacement should be here in a few days.
Unfortunately, it means I can't drive it in the sunshine at the moment

started the mini up, still running rough, tightened the left hand side carb float chamber as it was loose, seemed better, looked at it for a bit, turned it off, shut the garage door then went to look at a 1275GT that my mate is buying.

Treated some rust, put new wheel trims on and fitted the front number plate to the grille since it was about to fall off after hitting the pavement every time I put her in the drive.
