    Dewiper Mod

    Dewiper Mod

    Yes, its eye candy. Otherwise known as big boys toys & about as useful as a chocolate tea pot on the back of a K11. Try pouring v hot water on it & sharply tapping it all around, with a toffee hammer while turning it left & right. :cool:

    2006 K12 Micra (automatic) blower motor removal

    Well improvised, adapted & overcome the notorious K12 blower motor problem at marginal cost & with just one hours work. Brilliant, “jobs a goodun”. PS; Also curious with what you cut that rigid ducting so neatly in such a confined restricted space? (y)

    Saved from the rain.

    Quote; “under heavy rain the sills flood and water spills into the passenger footwell”. Sills flooding suggests that the sills drain slots, about three or four per sill, need clearing? Can become blocked by crud and or under seal applied carelessly & welded over? I use lollipop sticks to...

    Low Milage

    Bought? That was a K11 steal more like, £300 on 13K miles, if its tidy! Was it garaged most of its idle life with a wedge of documented service history invoices & old MOTs? Happy K11 days. :)

    Getting more light from the tails on a 1992 Micra

    Euro land 100KPH = 62 mph approx. I tend to aim @ 50 mph or less with a 100 metre plus gap in front, on A roads, as its more calming (safer) than higher speeds throttle & brake driving bumper to bumper & avoids breathing the concentrated aerosol exhaust fumes of the vehicle in front. Perhaps...

    Getting more light from the tails on a 1992 Micra

    Getting more light from the tails on a 1992 Micra

    The existing rear lamps wattage ratings are an optimum brightness tuned balanced matched set up that has been refined & defined over decades of custom & practice experience.

    Getting more light from the tails on a 1992 Micra

    Likely suspect is the rear lights earth connection that is common. Simple quick test by switching them all on, rear fog light included, together with four way hazard flashers. Look for any variation in brightness of the rear red tail lights as the hazard lights flash on & off.
