Righto, here we go!...original engine was points ignition,998cc.
I have fitted the late type 1275 cc carb engine, with standard electronic ignition, from a British Open Classic mini ........but somehow the wiring is confusing us.
The starter is the later type with piggy-back solenoid,-does this still need a seperate starter relay? - the little square one usually bolted to the inner wing of a mini.
The Electronic Distributor has a module attached to the side with 2 wires.
We have fitted the correct electronic coil.
There is now no power at all when the battery is re-connected, (battery is fully charged) I really need a better, easier to understand diagram, than the Haynes Manual one.
If you could email me a photo of how the wires connect onto the relay (-if we need it), and onto the Starter Solenoid,.....We seem to have too many wires left over, when the solenoid is wired up....but not enough to wire onto the starter relay terminals,(-if we did fit it)
(The buggy was driving ok before, execept for blown head gasket.)
Kind regards,
Matt Kill
