1989 Nissan Micra GLX review from UK and Ireland
"Could be bargain buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Unpredictable power loss problem.
Engine does not cut, but suddenly loose power and sounds like misfiring.
Even if I get the revs up high and then release the clutch (or drop a gear with high revs) she will not move and seems to choke (nosedive).
This mysteriously disappears if you play with the revs and switch the car off and try again (play about for 5 min).
This problem occurs once a week, twice a day, very unpredictable. Might be expecting allot from the year model. If similar problems please, please advise.
General comments?
Bought my Micra 3 months ago from two previous lady owners (mom and then daughter). Low mileage for year model. I definitely would be able to fill this space once I resolve my problem.
