Right have been wanting to do a k11 cg13 turbo build for my classic mini.
Mine is just no way near getting a engine yet still bit of body work to go, then paint.
So i bought a blue turd k11. Full of dog hair and snails so must of been sat for quite a while.
£88 later the micra was home.
The turd had a 1L coil pack engine and this isnt what i wanted to turbo. So time to take the engine out was started about a month ago.
Engine has now been removed and a few parts removed. If anyone wants a coilpack 1L with 85k miles let me know.
1.3 was fitted with its box and engine loom.
Here is where the problems started .
Didn't realise that the whole car loom was different.
So down to local breakers for full loom front to back for £15. So the whole loom is not in and everything connected guess what i now have problems .
Ignition sometimes comes on and light on dash eliminate and sometimes the parking light just dimly flashes.
When the dash works correctly the engine will crank and the air bag light just flashes. From an old airbag to a new one is the unit in the wheel a different setting or something?
Lights kinda work but don`t. Side lights at the front work fine. At the rear all the lights come on including fog and reverse light. Dipped beam works fine on NS but on OS it goes dim. How do i know if i have Dim-Dip fitted?
When i have the rear lights disconnected the indicators work but when i have the rear light plugged in the indicators don`t work .
Starting to wish i hadn't bought the turd now .
Anyone able to help me out?
More to come.
