Is there an online parts number catalogue for Micra 1.0L 1998? I may replace soem of the following. I need part no's for: 1) Engine temp sensor - Not the gauge temp sender 2) Fuel injector 3) Distributor rotor 4) Distributor cap TIA Danny

Thanks Frank. So the suspects so far: 1) Engine Temp Sensor - Test or replace (not the gauge temp sensor) Should I really get the retro fit resistor loom? 2) Fuel Injector - Test or replace 3) Distributor Rotor and Cap - Clean or replace Any other ideas - would also be welcome! Danny

The engine gets flooded and does not start. Have to keep a spare set of plugs in the car. Just replace the plugs and starts straight away. What is the best thing to do. I suspect the injectors are worn. Is there a simple resistance test or simple leak test like they do for diesel...

Thanks to all who have pointed me in the right direction. Have yo got a micra gearbox being serviced outside the car: Would appreciate pics of the clutch linkage and the gear shift linkage(s) which need to be undone. Danny

Mimz Thanks for the comments to my queries. This is good advice on the the lifting equipment and a second helper. Danny

Thanks Frank. This seems to be a great way to go - whenever you need access from the front, you just strip out the front grill and radiator. I have learnt a lot from you! After you do it a couple of times, its second nature I assume - for you. I'd like to see you working. When are you working...

I was thinking of using trolley jack No.1 under the oil pan, and jack No.2 under the transmission. Would this work ok? Danny

After the install, how will I know if I must make a clutch pedal adjustment? - or put it another way, if I buy an OEM clutch, will it minimise the chances of having to make a pedal adjutment Danny

Thanks Marshall. Would welcome comments and tips from others Danny

Thx Frank. I take it that you dont use threadlock on pressure plate bolts. Where can I get a clutch kit with the alignment tool. I would go to Europart for a Miyako Clutch Kit. Danny

Its time to change the clutch on the 1.0L Micra K11 1998. Gather that there are three engine+transmission mounts to consider. Q1: Which are the mounts to remove completely and which one to loosen up and keep nut/bolts still in place Q2: Once the gearbox housing is pryed apart, will the bell...

Thanks Mike. Thanks to all for comments and pointers. Happy ending. I was able to get a chipped key for GBP45 from a specialist car locksmith. And I didnt have to go to Nissan with key, car and also didnt need to book an appointment with Nissan dealer! If you are stuck and have a similar...

LX97 My key has a red chip in it - and will not start with "dumb" key only. Just looking for a cost effective solution now to converting the dumb key to red chip. I am sure others have been here before me. Danny

I've now been told - will be GBP 60-70 for a replacement key and a re program - ouch.

Thanks Frank. First the good news. I have now tried the "dumb" key and the red transponder key in the vicinity and that works quite well. Also it restarts the car without the red transponder in close vicinity. Thats a surprise. Is it safe to drive like this. In case of a stall or the...

Frank Thks for the reply. I do have another key - and that is just for opening the doors. It does not start the car - probably no red chip. Maybe I could move the "dumb" key to the red chip key holder? Do you think that might work? How do I find a locksmith that knows the Nissan K11 key...

My only K11 yr 1997 key is bent and may break any day. At present its just usable. Whats the cheapest way of getting a replacement? Do I have to go to a main dealer for a key or can a locksmith cut it for me - not sure if its got a immobiliser Shudder...how much should I be thinking of...

Thks Frank. Will see if I can get away with the lube. Danny

Thks DECIM8. I've just seen this link for a 1300cc. http://nissan4u.com/parts/micra/er_k11e/1997_8/type_10/fuel_and_engine_control/accelerator_linkage/ Mine is a 1000cc. Should be same or similar. I will do the simple checks first and lube it up. If I do have to replace the cable, do I...

https://micra.org.uk/cmf/message/39500 K11 1000cc Year 2001 The accelerator pedal is hard work. Read the thread above. But what I'd really like to know is: Is it the cable or the pedal that needs the attention? Danny
