Hi all,
bought a micra about 3 weeks ago, good condition for its age,
been running it every week from then every day no problems.
went out yesterday engine started spluttering when it got up to temperature.
Had a look at it today, cleaned all the plugs up with WD40 and the spark plug.
Couldn't get the dizzy cap off as one the bolts was a complete bugger to get off so couldnt look in there.
recent searches online showed it could be a fuel filter, so went off and bought one of those, fitted that, still same problems with new FF.
Given up for today, searched online showed it could be sensors etc, or ECU problems, does a 1993 k11 lx 1.3 even have an ecu? - couldnt see one.
Lastly looked and it could be a throttle body which is a hefty price for a new one, half of the price i paid for the car!
All help is appreciated, if anyone else has had this problem before and fixed it , i'd love to know how you did it!
Thanks ,
Tom.
