    Also noticed you didn't mention anything about a fuel filter change? Maybe something worth looking at too... if you're saying it's cutting out sometimes when cold, maybe the filter is too plugged up for cold viscous fuel to pass.

    update



    Right, the old fella got my £20 pound note as extra for the 80 pounds he charged to fix it .

    i asked him to ty and remove that broken glow plug and replace the rest... somehow only one of them can come easy!

    he went and bought a fuel filter as too much smoke comming from the exhaust when you rave,and he said if this doesnt help you need to send to diesel specialist as not a glow plug problem

    we changed it, still same .... then he noticed the little black pipe on the engine that feeds with diesel..and that had a hole as it twists.
    went a nd bough new pipe for 2 quid in a shop.. mini runs like a dream !! i

    thanks for your input guys
