Hi all. Looking into getting a reader for my 1994 1.0 Pre-coil pack Micra. In reference to this thread I've a question, Can I use this software to read my OBD1 with this reader?

Hi all. Chasing an idling issue with my Micra, I have read that the lambda sensor could be causing of the rich running and lumpy idle I am experiencing, I've had the throttle body cleaned out and it runs silky smooth when driving but the idle is lumpy. I am wondering. 1. My car is pre-coil...

Will do thanks. When it goes in week today I plan while it's being cleaned to get the exact model and number of the body unit so I can check eBay etc for replacements I could learn how to rebuild. Can't see these parts being available too much longer, so a belts and braces approach could be...

Sadly too new, they state 2003 and later, mines a 1994 pre-coil pack as I understand it :)

I'm looking for a throttle body for my pre-coil pack 1.0 Micra 1994. I'm having it cleaned out again next week ahead of my test to hopefully settle the car down once more, however, it's only a stop gap measure. Eurocarparts has some scary prices for these units so wondering if the guru's...

Any idea what bulbs I should order in to have a basic set of them with the car?

I've a 1994 registered 1.0 L CVT the only power thing on the whole car is the brakes.

Hi all, looking to obtain a full set of bulbs for my 1994 1.0 16V CVT Micra. It's the basic L spec so just a single rear fog light, and no frills. Them being UK based would be ideal for speed, and what tools would I use to change the bulbs?

Got the car back running really sweet, the garage cleaned out the throttle body and replaced all items needed in a major service. Not run it from cold since Africa has arrived in the UK, but from the drive home from the garage, it felt a like a new car!.

Don't currently own a multi-meter, and by time I get one delivered ( I live in a village ) it will be in the garage, will have them take a look at it assuming it's the likely culprit.

Had it out again today for a 20mile drive over the Moors and back to home, it seems happier at idle. But is noticeably running rich even with the temp gauge showing the engines warmed up? could this be the Lambda sensors needing changing?

Fair enough, going in the local garage on Thursday for oil/filters general service.

Turned it anti-clockwise 1/4 a turn, tick over from cold seems a LOT better, will know how it feels next time I can drive it (currently on provisional insurance) Put £15 in it yesterday surprised it took it to half a tank! With the 1.0 attached to the CVT box what kinda MPG can I expect?

Got the allen keys today, had it out for a drive, it drives really well, just the idle is far too slow. Will sort it once it stops pouring down outside. I appreciate the advice :D

Okay clockwise that out to raise the idle. The maf is connected but I assume doing nothing given my engine lacks the coil pack?

Ah that makes much more sense, which direction should I rotate it? also should I remove the MAF before or after I've adjusted the idle?

Seems beyond me to fix this thing. I fix computers, not cars. What part number is the throttle body how much to replace it ?

Wait so it's not the MAF sensor? where is it then? Will have to search up this O Ring, as for the Lambda let me guess the one right at the front of the engine mines as Bosch job looks like it's been there a while. Is there another? and what settings am I looking for having never used a multimeter!

Still cannot get the thing off, does not matter though, took the top cover off the airbox to find a brand new filter, and the throttle body looking suspiciously new. Beginning to suspect timing chains stretched, which is a major job and more than I am willing to spend on a £400 car. If this...
