    Petrol Smell

    Haha, now your just rubbing it in davyboy mate, yeah it must be nice having so many cars and parts to choose from, over here the micra wasn't a big seller ( too expensive compared to cheaper jap/Chinese competitors ) the Super S for example was $21000 in 1995 !

    Throttle re Soldering quite

    The throttle position sensor is the first component the guy removes from the throttle body in the video, by undoing the two screws, you don't actually have to remove it to do the re-solder { i didn't when i did mine, as i didn't want to screw up the setting } but it sounds like this is what you...

    Spoilers

    Ok davyboy, still interested provided postage isn't prohibitive ( these spoilers arn't especially big and I imagine they are fairly light too ) I am in Aldinga Beach, Adelaide, South Australia, 5172. By the way, how do these spoilers attach to the tailgate ?

    Throttle re Soldering quite

    Yunususama, could it be maybe that the throttle position sensor has been refitted incorrectly, if you where careful doing the re-solder I don't think it would creat the problem you describe. Usually re-soldering either improves the cars drivability, or does nothing, not make a new fault.

    Air conditioning installation.

    Thanks ! morsan1903 We've had a couple of warm days here since I did the instal and it was nice to be able to be able to turn on the a/c and cool down. The micra has a lot of glass for its size and so it's a bit like a little greenhouse on wheels in bright sunlight ( even with window...

    Air conditioning installation.

    And lastly, take the car to an automotive A/C specialist for the system to be leak tested, lubed, and re gassed, after which you can enjoy crispy cold A/C on even the hottest days. I hope this has been useful to anyone contemplating this upgrade. It is quite a bit of work to do ( I spread...
