You honestly make the best and clearest videos on car repair; so glad you focus on the buggy i have. Been fighting a p2096 for almost a year. always learn a ton from your videos- Ordered that same kit, and loaded with some good ideas - feeling hopeful again!
Thank you Eric. Hope all is going well over there with your Mini?
@@CoatsandGaiters - been fighting a 2096 code since october. about 3k in with parts so far and even brought to a few "specialists" who didn't get it. new BMW scanner arrived last night. hoping resetting the attributes does the trick. texas is doing away with inspections in 2025. I guess plan B is hoping i can avoid getting pinched for an unregistered car until then!
@@ericbmusic Blimey all go then over there Eric. What is a 2096 code?
@@CoatsandGaiters - lean fuel. I've replaced every part related. now i'm told to reset the attributes but the cheap BWM scanner i bought won't do that, although it claims so on the box. it's been a saga. can send you the 20 page forum link if you are curious.
@@ericbmusic does the ECU not control all the fuel delivery requirements?
another amazingly detailed and beautifuly shot MINI diy video.
thank you for uploading!!
Thank you for taking the time to say so. Hope it helps a little.
Very useful. Most R50s fuel pressure regulators fail after so many years, I found the issue after a lot of troubleshooting when the pressure test showed clearly there was a leak somewhere. Fuel was leaking under the regulator.
Thank you for the comment. When you say leaking do you mean actually leaking onto the engine ? Or leaking back into the tank return pipe?
@@CoatsandGaiters it was really leaking fuel into the intake through the drain pipe. It was very hard to start with warm engine and always had fuel smell. Fuel consumptions were crazy too!
@@peskachina thank you for the heads up on that.
Did you have to replace the whole rail ? I see a clip on the bottom of the fuel regulator but it seems to be welded to the rail. I haven't seen anyone show on how to replace that part. And info would be very much appreciated.
@@jorgezamarripa9718 On my first car I replaced the whole rail, on the third I rteplaced only the pressure regulator, the clip can be removed easily once the rail is off but it didn't solve the problem that time, I actually sold it before i could find the real cause.
My Mini got almost full tank of gas when I put it in storage a year ago. I have been getting more and more anxiety about how to get the old gas out of it. Fortunately I found this video. Today I drained about 10 liters gas out by the means of bypassing the pin 87 and pin 30 of the fuel pump relay. Very happy learned this method from this video. Thanks a lot for your clear tutorials.
That's fabulous news, how come your mini is being layed up for so long?
@@CoatsandGaiters Right now my daily drive is my rusty Caravan pretty much has a year or so life left. I want use it as much as possible before its end. Then I'll drive the Mini. Since now I know how to get the old gas out so no more concern about how long it stays in the garage😄
@@zwddl Very true lol, E10 petrol is the biggest one as that absorbs water from the air and accumulates in the tank.
Great video👍 What is the correct fuel pressure during acceleration on a Mini R53?
I think the fuel pressure is meant to be kept constant at 3.5 bar or 50psi over the driving range.
Goodmorning. Very food .
Thank you
10:10 I think it's normal to see the fuel pressure gradually drop after the engine is switched off. The regulator is not a one way valve. Going back to your Peugeot 207 video, I remember the pump switched on when you opened the door, perhaps to facilitate a quick engine start.
That's very true, logic would say the pump priming when opening the door is to facilitate a ready engine. I think glow plugs do this as well on diesels for the appearance of an instant start-up.
Do you have a video of removing the Mini R50 Fuel Pressure regulator?
Sorry but I don't think I had a need to do that.
hey, got a problem, my r53 is not delivering fuel from the tank to "from tank fuel pipe", took off the both ends from the filter and the ramp off, the pump works, nozzle from the filter side leaks as soon as the ignition turned on, but on the engine end nothing comes out, what could be the issues..? thanks for the answer 🤯
The pipe running under the car hasn't been kinked or damaged has it? Is the fuel flowing from the filter with the pump running? should have a strong flow leaving the filter unless the filter is blocking up.
Hi, I have been trying to get a seller to answer the question of the diameter of the quick connector of the very top quick connector. If it is 6.30mm(SAE 1/4)7.89mm(SAE 5/16)9.49mm(SAE 3/8). So I know if it will fit my 2007 toyota matrix. None seem to want to answer. Maybe this is a pain in the butt but it would be appreciated. Thanks.
Do you mean the one in the lid in the top middle? If its the one with a brass T section on the left and a short rubber pipe to a quick disconnect the quick disconnect has 7.89 on it. The long brass pipe facing down is 7.82mm. Hope this helps.
@@CoatsandGaiters Wow, thank you been all over the internet trying to find this info. thank you very much. Subscribed
@@lmt200ish Thank you and no skipping those adverts lol
Sir, I have a relay that often burns, is my fuel pump damaged?
Sounds like it's drawing too much amperage.
@@CoatsandGaiters what should i do sir
Sadly I cannot really advise as I'm not there with the car. Auto electrics can be very complicated and needs to be worked through bit by bit testing as you go.@@mrTwoLai
@@CoatsandGaiters thanks sir
