- IT'S FIXED! - K11 Nissan Micra FINALLY Running Right - New Throttle Body & Idle Control Valve
#car #nissan #nissanmicra
In 2007 Dad bought me my first car - a 2000 plate K11 Nissan Micra Sport. It was a peach, 24,000 miles from new, top spec, and in amazing condition. I drove it. I used it as my daily driver up until 2015, racking up over 85,000 miles. Then I met Mrs JC and fancied something a bit more ... impressive.
I parked the car in the garage and left it under a cover for 10 years. NOW - fast forward to 2024 - and Dad suggested it was time to get the old girl back on the road for Rustival 2 in September BUT - is it too far gone? Are we wasting our time?
We have got it out of the garage and to dads house BUT it wouldn't idle properly
However! ... It's now fixed - Dad talks us through it!

Thanks for being with us guys! Hope you are enjoying the project updates - Now its running right we need to tackle the other issues! Will we make Rustival?!
As long you do it every day you will make it
Result. Your dad again showing the benefit of being a proper old school mechanic and able to use his knowledge and abilities to adapt parts. Great result. Fingers crossed the good fortune continues
Cheers Alan 🤠
Hooray for Daddy Coupland. He's the man❤😂Ruth
He certainly is!
good for dad taking the welding on
He's a legend
As my Mother would say, it's not what you know, it's who you know. Glad you contact came through, and your Dad had a shred bases solution to make the part work!
Cheers 😊💪
So satisfying when a cheap part makes the grade :) Great fun as ever!
Totally! Thanks :)
“Let’s fit it tomorrow”
The next day…
“Oh you’ve fitted already!” 😂
He's a nuisance!
Your dad is a star ❤🎉
He certainly is 👍☺️
Remember the old car adverts from the 1990s? Seems like "You can with a Nissan" after all. 😃
Absolutely! I also recall "ask before you borrow it"
Fantastic news well done Jon and Pete a great video again and so pleased that you have both worked hard and found a solution to the issue and Pete has worked to adapt a part it’s amazing how things change over the life of a car in production looking forward to the next instalment! All the best to you all Daniel
Thanks Daniel 😄
Glad to hear you got it running in the end jon!
Many thanks! Now to tackle the rest 😁
Father Coupland was right all along, what a suprise. Well done guys on another great video.

Happy Day’s the micra is up and running

Put big rims and some decals...that would be awesome.
Not for me that styling but would look cool!
Nissan micra k11 i like those videos
Can you make a section of videos about Nissan micra k11
Sure thing ☺️ more to come
parts on micra's seem dirt cheap, so its amazing the idle control unit is £250!!!
Yes I agree
YAY
My thoughts exactly!
OWATROL on them plastics Jon please. Shout out to Dad.
I have my tin of Polytrol ready :)
Well done, Pete 💪🏼💪🏼
Cheers Frank :)
Great job. Cracking little car.
Thanks 👍Appreciate you following the project
That sounds better, good job 👍 😊😊
Absolutely! Cheers Brad
I like the Reg number on the Micra MFP did you know that stands for Main Force Patrol in Mad Max ? lol
I didn't! We call it My Fairy Princess
@@JonCoupland Oh Dear LMAO , You need to Mad Max it up , put a bonnet scoop on it and a rear spoiler and big exhaust LOL
I like these cars and I don't know why. Small, basic and easy to drive?
Thats why i like it too
Well done but can you put black numberplate screw covers on?
No point. I'm having period correct replica plates made which will be stuck on not screwed 👍
@@JonCoupland Tidy as we say in Wales. 🏴
You cannot keep a good Micra down, K11 Micra and MK1 Yaris were well made cars.
Absolutely
Throttle body ??
We replaced the whole lot :)
Idc cheaper than a proton 😂
Yes!
