    Here - www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281048672344?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Taking the pump out is a swine first time, finding the clips in the dark fuel tank. The grey plastic sender unit unclips easily from the side of the white pump housing. The pump housing has one clip at...

    Fuel pump woes

    We'd been suffering serious lack of power in Molly, so diagnosed a failing fuel pump. We replaced the fuel pump today. She started fine, idled nicely up to temp. We then took her out for a test run - got 200m and she spluttered to a halt. She spins over nicely, but won't restart. I suspect the...

    No LSD (yet). We're getting it on a rolling road in the next couple of weeks so will give figures then.

    1.3 into 1.0 engine swap (again!)

    To clarify, I put in a 1275 non-coil pack. Same ecu as the 1.0.

    1.3 into 1.0 engine swap (again!)

    OK, you were correct. Swapped the engines, kept the 1.0 flywheel, clutch and gearbox. Rallied her at the weekend and she was great! So yes - it is a straight swap!

    1.3 into 1.0 engine swap (again!)

    Tempting, but I'm looking at a simple power increase. Swap the engines, put the original ancilliaries back, plug in the wiring - that should do it!

    1.3 into 1.0 engine swap (again!)

    Eh? I'm trying to keep it simple!

    Really? Same ECU? Is it that simple?

    1.3 into 1.0 engine swap (again!)

    Hi Folks Sorry, I know this has been discussed to death, but some of the threads seem to contradict each other. We have a 2000 W plate non-coil pack 1.0 rally car. We fancy a bit more power, but still want to be able to return it to Junior 1000 spec with not much hassle. The wiring in the...

    BC Suspension - Rear setup?

    Brilliant info - thanks. Basic question - in the pics where you are changing the new rear bumpstop for the original: What is the sequence of parts? There is a metal washer that sits on a shoulder on the piston. Is that below the bumpstop? If (from the damper body upwards) I have the sequence...

    BC Suspension - Rear setup?

    Hi Folks The car build is going well, should be ready for pics in the next week or so. I'm looking for some advice from anyone who has fitted and used the BC Suspension kit. On the rear I am not happy with the fit. Specifically I have two issues: 1. The original dampers were removed by...

    Weighed my micra yesterday

    Interesting. We'll weigh ours when it comes back with the cage etc. Cheers Jools

    New to micra, building rally car.

    You mean the suspension? That is sold as a complete set, I don't think that putting just front ones on would be very sensible (or safe). Full set around £700 iirc. Cheers Jools

    Unusual distributor??

    Yup - that's what I did. I can't find anyone with the correct part! I only used ebay to see if *anyone* was showing my model. :suspect: Cheers Jools
