Hey everyone. First and foremost, I see myself and pretty damn good mechanic. I worked on every from BMW E46’s to ole school mustangs. I got a 2010 Mini R56 and I’ve put a lot into it. When I bought it from Coparts, I know it had a mechanical issue but figured I could find out what it is. It’s the infamous “Crank but won’t start”. I’ve replaced any and everything minus the injectors and the CAS. My mini would be considered a stage 2 with the mods so that gives you and idea of what has been done. When I say I’ve replaced everything you can name, I mean everything out for of pulling the motor. The car will crank and even backfire but nothing else. Any ideas of a good shop I can take it too or if any members that can lead me to what it might be, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks everyone!

 

Touch base with Open Road Mini (Nicolas Scalisi) in the Ft. Worth area. Nick and his crew might be able to help.

 

I’ll reach out tomorrow! Thanks.

 

Behavior suggests a fueling problem. Backfire through the intake is a sign of insufficient fuel or too low fuel pressure. Backfire out the exhaust is a sign of too much fuel.

 

Thanks RockC. The only thing I haven’t replaced are the injectors. I replaced the HPFP, Fuel Pump and Filter. You think it might be the injectors?
