Hi, hoping for some help here. My coilpack micra 2001 keeps randomly cutting out. It won't pull strongly, especially when cold it has huge flat spot. There are no air leaks, and I've tested the throttle position sensor, which is fine. I would like to test the Maf sensor using a multi meter, do...
Thanks Agent, car is running really badly, cutting out at roundabouts and junctions, but really want to keep it for a few more years hopefully, thanks for the advice.
Thanks for reply. I suspect a Tps fault as the car has very unresponsive throttle. I wanted to back probe the Tps while slowly moving the throttle to take the readings. Mine is the Bosch Tps which has no adjustment, it's a plug and play type.
Hi all, looking for some help with Tps plug. I unplugged the Tps connector which has 3 wires the centre wire is the earth, but the 2 wires either side are reading 5 volts on my digital multi meter. Not sure why this is??. Any advice welcome, thanks in advance.
Hi all, I need some advice on repairing my sagging drivers door. There was an explanation from .... Frank.. I think. To use a plank of wood under the door and sill and lever the door up. My question is do I loosen the door hinges first, otherwise how would it work..... Any body tried this...
Hi all, we all know the k11 has a problem with the rear sills rusting from the inside out. Mines a 3 door and I sat in the rear and removed the inner plastic panel, you can then see the inside of the rear sill. I gave it a spray on both sides with some ACF 50. Only took half an hour. I thought...

Hi, you are going to have to methodically work through every possible cause, are you getting a spark at the plugs, are the plugs wet with fuel? Is the engine management light on ?
Hi all, went to my k11 1.0 2000 model this morning and it wouldn't start, orange engine light was flashing. I pulled out the fuses for ecu to check if they had blown, bit of a wild guess, they hadn't, when I replaced them the car started and runs fine...... Either a loose fuse / bad connection...
I got it from first line, part no ... FTS104.82. Perfect fit . It doesn't come with a gasket so I used a thin smear of RTV sealant on the housing after making sure it was spotlessly clean .
Hi all. I've fitted a new thermostat today and cannot believe the difference, the car warms up much much quicker, and the heater is much hotter .Best £6 I've ever spent on the old girl.
Hi all, some low life has dented the rear panel on my two door facelift 1.0. It is dented just in front of the rear wheel,so I need to remove the inner panel in the rear of the car so I can hopefully push the dent out. Any idea how it comes off anyone please ...??.
