TMF has a technical forum section dedicated to the injection Minis which might also be worth searching through the topics for similar MPi issues:-

Thank you Peter.
What I didn't mention was the ECU problem I encountered on the way to the start of the 2006 Lombard Rally. Never did identify the source of the problem but car does run well now. Still clad with Lombard 2006 rally plates etc and the regulation Colway rally tyres and wheels for shows.
ps Spares now include ECUs, engine management loom and all sensors and the car was recommissioned this year and starts onn the button but I do disconnect the battery while in storage.

Also check that no engine loom wires are chafing. Many years ago the AA identified that my loom was chafing against the clutch master cylinder and effected a temporary repair by adding rubber breather hose around the source. It's still there and I haven't had any problems from that since.
Ok Thanks I’ll give that coat of looking at. Cheers
