So, should we solve the carbon build-up problem in the MCS by putting in a V8? :lol:
In the late 1960's I recall autoshop talk about someone in Los Angeles who put a V8 in the back of a classic Mini. Never saw it, so it could have been urban legend.
Hey Matt (Dr Obnxs) has already engaged conversation to do such a project? So who knows ya might see a thread "How to V-B your MCS" by him in the future? :lol:
it seems to be a common problem on DI motors
Audi has this problem also if you do a bit of hunting
the 3.2L motor they build is the worst offender.
I know Crevier has multipule Prince motors on hand simply because of this problem
So......My question to this carbon problem ,will there or can there be a solution to "fix" .Come on now ,we are a tech savvy nation and by this point has'nt someone come up with a solution.I think if this is solved it would undo the" bad rap" our MINI's (gen 2)are getting in it's reliability/reviews report.:confused5:
Until they can change the a/f on the r56, it is an ECU safety valve. Wanna stop carbon build up, and help save the engine?? Add a water/methanol system.
Just curious, other than saving $10 on a bottle of Seafoam, is there any advantage (or disadvantage) of using water instead of Seafoam, as Nitromini originally recommended for the R56 engine?
:lol:
