What you looking for Dave?

need a carburetor for the micra. thought id see if there was any chance of fixing it.

Re: west sussex breakers/salvage yards
 

You sure thats what it needs?

Re: west sussex breakers/salvage yards
 

i got my mechanic to check it out, he said you cant be 100% sure but the signs point to the carb, the car started to not idle so would stall everytime id stop at a junction etc then my bro had it for a bit and eventually couldnt get it to start at all.

its now sat outside on my bros driveway doing nothing and battery is now flat too. thought id see how much a 2nd hand carb was and replace it to see if it was the problem.

a girl at work recently had a similiar problem and it turned out just to be the earthing wire? could it be that?

Any other ideas?

cheers

Thing is you get one from a breakers and you dont know if it's any better than the one you got.

Could always take the top off it and see if there's any sh1t inside it first....might just be a blocked jet or something.
