coolant level without exp. tank should be 1-2 cm from the top i think (somebody correct me if i am wrong) I think it could be thermostat, if you are willing to flush the system, remove it, check it in warm/hot water and if faulty, replace.. if not.. broken water pump, something stuck in...

hi again.. and thank you all.. today i got it out of the garage and got my frozen 1.0 inside.. after spilling petrol on air filter it ran fine again for good 5 minutes, so i decided to let it be for now and return to it when it will be warmer outside.. i suppose that i will try to start it...

another thing. sorry for spamming.. just reading haynes manual and found some interesting stuff.. (amongst other useful stuff) E.C.C air-fuel ratio solenoid - could interfere with the mixture, making it lean? throttle valve switch - engine dies when i press the gas.. also wont start when the...

no problem :) if you had some questions about connecting them or placing into reflectors etc, just ask.. few simple steps and you can connect it by yourself.. also, if you want to have better looking text, use "sketch paper" or how do you call it.. it is a semi-translucent/transparent paper for...

thanks frank, it is something with the fuel.. when i literally soaked the filter in petrol, engine jumped on in a fraction of a second and ran fine. stepped on a gas and it went right up, faster than 4000rpm with no problems.. now the question is, if i want to sort it out or just spill the...

had a look at it today.. took out all plugs (bosch super 4.. not that bad, right?), 1,and 4 were black, 2 and 3 too, but not that much.. cleaned them with a metal brush.. also sprayed carb cleaner into the carb, is much more shiny now.. this sorted the 400-700-400-700 periodic reving...

turn the lights on and open the boot.. slowly close it, wmove it up and down and look if the lights dont turn on for a fraction of second.. that would indicate broken wire at the part where it comes out of the body and comes into the boot door.. it should be this problem, because the wiring...

hi, i am from Slovakia, and have one Micra K10 sitting in garage, using it for spares.. it has been imported from Germany few years ago, so maybe.. what exactly do you need? I does not have electric side mirrors and it is without sound system, but the centre console is of course there.. what...

i have a two-step 2nd gear too, but personally i dont think it is too bad.. few months ago i had to replace CV boot at the left wheel and i accidentally ripped the transaxle with CV joint from transmission.. quite a lot of oil went out (looks like i am an expert at spilling oil).. after few...

thx guys, will try to clean the carb thoroughly.. it is literally black, so that could be a problem :D btw, what exactly is the cause of immediate death after touching throttle? could be something with ECU, or is it only blocked jet or sth? when i open the choke plate manually while idling...

ok, found out that the terrible squeak was coming from alternator belt.. sorted.. made a video of unstable idle.. what do you think? why does it have crappy idle and why does it die when i touch gas pedal? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNxkiN4_lTU thanks

Hi guys.. i've got an old, 5 years sitting still micra in a garage, it has MA12 engine with electronic igniton and ECU unit under passengers seat (3 connectors, size approx 15x20cm) thought i would fire it up and get out of the garage.. then give it to one of my friends, (i used it for...

oh, really? maybe i have a lucky hand, but i set them by the eye and engine runs great since then.. does even a small difference make big changes? how did the engine run when the gap was too big/small? thx //ashnelson: "put it to the bin" -> yes, that's quite common.. at least here in...

my haynes manual is on the way, Baz is right, buy one :) here is one page from PDF which should help http://tinypic.com/r/2zghi5l/6

try to reach under front window "seal" it is possible that the rubber is too old and has some cracks in it.. so the water goes into the seal and gets to the other side.. if you can reach there and feel water, you have a problem which could be sorted by replacing seal or getting silicone glue (or...

have you checked the vacuum lines? also, try to clean the carb - there are special sprays for cleaning.. you have to warm up the engine, then kill it, open intake, spray it inside, clean all visible parts etc.. then start the engine (will take longer to start and will also need some help from...

does it hesitate every time? mine has big problems when it is cold - starts OK but dies immediately if i dont keep it in revs.. dont have to mention that keeping cold engine in revs is not the bad idea.. since i mounted oil pressure meter i try to avoid it, but it is simply impossible.. i was...

mine did that too. looks like you are going through all problems i had with my car, one at the time :D i believe it is the same with other old micras the job itself is pretty easy.. you will need big flat screwdriver/metal rod and a hammer.. also pliers for removing small locks at the end of...

could not resist to post a pic of sed's lights.. build in progress, leds are bright as hell :) (compared to standard 21w bulb)

I have one, but not for Super S - it has clock adjuster hole. If you wanted, I could seal the hole with something like liquid plexi, but of course it would be visible. And by "one" I mean the whole dashboard from my 2nd micra, not only the plexi. If you are looking for more parts, let me know -...
