    This is great, I’m 60 and learnt how to work on cars like escort mk1, mk 2 & 3 cortina’s and the like and all fairly easy cars to work on and here’s this young lad learning on newer much more complicated motors albeit the same principals and even showing how it’s done in front of thousands of people!
    Keep going lad, amazing work. Keep up the comedy as well, gives me a good laugh 😂

    the starter motor has gone on that mini if its started after a push start then it’s definitely starter issue that’s why it won’t start a common issues to why a car usually fails to start if it cranks but won’t start it’s usually the starter motor as if it was no power it wouldn’t crank the way it was it just wouldn’t do anything if power was very low
