MINI MARK II MK2 1967-1970 SERVICE REPAIR WORKSHOP MANUAL
VEHICLE/EQUIPMENT INTRODUCTION:
The Mini Mark II was introduced in 1967 as the first significant revision of Alec Issigonis revolutionary Mini design. The Mark II brought a larger rear window, revised grille with a wider opening, altered rear lights, and an improved interior with better trim materials. Underneath the cosmetic updates, the Mini retained the brilliant transverse front-wheel-drive layout that maximized interior room within its tiny footprint.
Powered by the iconic BMC A-series inline four-cylinder engine in 848cc and 998cc displacements, the Mini Mark II continued the tradition of spirited performance from a small package. The engines featured overhead valves operated by pushrods, and the engine shared its oil with the transmission in a combined sump arrangement. The four-speed manual gearbox with the gear lever mounted on the dashboard was a defining Mini characteristic.
The Mini has become one of the most culturally significant automobiles ever produced, transcending its utilitarian origins to become an icon of 1960s British culture. The Mark II represents a sweet spot in Mini evolution with improved refinement over the original while retaining the classic features that Mini collectors and enthusiasts value most.
