Hello Chris, I have a1989 Micra k10 GS 988cc five door which was bought in September 2015, my car had been in the last owner's garage for 19 years unused, brakes and clutch were all stuck up and fuel gone off. After freeing everything with new brake pads and filter's, oil's etc last year. The...

Any one know a good parts supply firm for K10's, there was one in Germany but seems to have gone. I need a new heater core I've tried the Bar's leaks stuff in the rad twice, or maybe a classic mini core could be converted?.

Took my 1989/90 K10 for the Mot today, failed on two items one being foglamp not working. I checked the bulb fuses and conections which are ok so it must be the relay, there are only three relays what I can see all on the right hand side of the car above the fuse box. The blue relay is for the...

Thanks for the reply, got the heater working well now "if" I have the blower on, blower off and it's stone cold........... odd heating system. All my other cars would be warm without the blower.

Weird problem with my K10 heater, engine at normal tempeture and hot / cold lever fully on, checked cable all the way to the back push rod, rod back as far as it will go. Rubber pipes hot to the heater core, back flushed the core, water and air will pass through easy so valve must be open...

Okay better look for any air leaks first Frank, cheers.

At the back of the autochoke where the shaft goes through to the choke plate, there is metal tab between the too which rotates with the choke . This moves on it's own and is not connected to the vacuum break tab, should there a clip joining the two which is missing on mine.

Didn't think of that Frank there could be a air leak there, the little metal tab at the end of the break vacuum is not in anyway connected to the choke tab, should it be?.

I have a 1990 1.0 which has been standing for many years. Starts fine now from cold after cleaning the fuel system, but as it warms up and starts cominig off choke it virtually will not run. The vacuum break diaphragm is not working, no air leaks in the pipework so it's the diaphragm. would this...

Thanks for the reply, seal kits for master as well cheers.

Now have a K10 1990 which has been sitting in a garage for twenty years, very low miles but brakes need rebuilding, where can I buy master and caliper seal kits, or will Nissan Cherry parts fit / modified too fit .
