WDIDT? Well actually nothing! Last week ordered some carb cleaner and yesterday arrived a contact cleaner! Went back online noticed that I had clicked on the wrong product! Can I use the contact cleaner on spark connection? What about cleaning the MAF sensor? Any ideas? Please advise?

Thanks pollyp, Checked o2 sensor and its 0.5 or some times fluctuating up to 0.9 and 0.4. Replaced the 02 sensor in 2013 and the car was standing since May 2013. Basically its done less then 2000 miles with the new sensor which is universal one! Is it possible to clean an 02 sensor? If yes...

Thanks Agent_Sm1th, I was worried if it effects something else thats not obvious! If unscrewing and disconnecting other connection and remove the TB, will not effect anything else, then thats what i will tomorrow, since I don't have time today. Have to go to work. Regards

WDIDT? Tried to open IACV but noticed that the whole TB has to be opened in order to open it. Since don't have enough time today, I will do it on my off! The engine light was due to a P130 error code. I hope its related to to IACV being stack as pollyp advised/suggested. If not I have to...

Hi pollyp, I have tried to locate and open it, but unfortunately noticed that in order to open it tb has to be removed as can be seen here: . Furthermore, the car thrown a p130 error code. Now can you please advise/instruct me how go about it? Regards

WDIDT? MOTed and taxed the car today. On the way home from MOT garage, the engine light turned on and there was not usual power and there wassome kangaroo as well. Drove to work and back. As soon as I pulled in the driveway the engine turned off and all lights turned off as well. The car...

Very many thanks pollyp for a very detailed step by step instructio and illustration. I have sorted it out. Before opening I have noticed the liner did have crews. When opened the pump noticed its not original abd the connecotr simply taped. Removed and connected properly and it works...

WDIDT? Opened the windscreen washer pump. It seems its gonen. Any ideas on to test it? Please help. Regards

Many thanks polltp. I will try that. I have ordered some break cleaner yesterday. Hopefully it will arrive Saturday. I will update when done it. Any idea about the screen wash fluid not coming. Checked the fuse its okay. Regards

WDIDT? Bled the breaks and connected the sway bar with a smaller bolt that gone through the welded nut. Washed the car yesterday after nearly 2 years standing and lots of weeds growing on it. Replaced the wipers and noticed the screen wash fluid it not coming out. Checked the fuse and its...

Update: Could not remove the welded nut. Tried both m10 1.5 and m10 1.25 taps but could not anything. Used a M8 bolt instead of m10 with couple of washers on both sides. Since it too dark could not make a video to share here. I found a different issue today! The screen wash is not working...

Many thanks pollyp, I will try that, if I can locate it. Regards

Thanks pollyp, Its a w reg with a Bosch TB, I think. Can you please elaborated on how to check and fix it? Regards

Hello every one, My car starts at very low rpm 6-700 and the rpm rises gradually to 1240 when it warms up to operational temperature. Is there something wrong? What do I have to look for? Regards

WDIDT? Well, actually yesterday, changed the coolant and oil. Could not open the oil filter because it toooooo difficult and dark/late. Wanted to wash it today but its raining. What I have noticed is the car idle a bit low 600. But runung a bit when its warm goes to 1100. Is it normal? If not...

WDIDT? not much tried to clean the nut in axl for fastining the sway bar but could not do. I should have done it when the axle was not connected at leat least I had some space to move freely. It seems I have to take it to a garage to do it for me. Thats a pity after replacing axle and can...

I browed a 1.5 and a 1.25 taps from a garage it seems none would work. Apparently the bolt which I removed from the original axle is 1.25 as can be seen here . Regards

WDID? Today I went to local pound shop and got a M10 50mm bolt and nut for 99p. The other week called Nissan and was quoted £2.10 + vat bolts only! Wednesday tried to grind the seized panhard rod bush from the axle ended up injuring my thump. Since then could not a lot, apart from connecting...

Very many thanks pollyp, I will look again and share the result here. On the size of thread after reading a bit from the old posts, (when I was repairing the red 2years ago) I found its M10x1.25. Regars

I think I have figured it out how to determine the size of the nuts and required tap. Since I have to to work don't have time to measure it. I will report when have time to do it. Off to an 8 hr shift work. Regards
