Brand new boot/fuel release cable - OUCH

Thu 25 Aug 2005 01:03:46 PM
Bosito sent me up his flap mechanism thing which is in perfect condition. Then when I installed it I realised that the lugs on my actual cable were all brittle and snapped off. Beyond repair for gluing it back together. DAMN!!!

Then I got angry and ripped the whole cable out of the car and cut it into pieces with some wire cutters.

Its just old and stuffed. I could take the risk of finding one second hand that probably is also brittle because they only came out on 1995 (and maybe some 1996 micras?).. But I couldn't be stuffed.

So I just bought a brand new entire cable unit from Nissan. Its coming up overnight from Melbourne. Angers me at how expensive it was, but now I can just be done with it and have a brand new one in there that won't wear out for a very long time. It includes the entire mechanism aswell, so turns out now I will be keeping Bosito's one as a spare! But its a good thing to have as a spare.

Zoiks. $225. That's about the only genuine Nissan thing I've ever bought from them! bah!

Wish I had more spare time !! More spare time means more Micra time.
Glad you had a day off Cisco. Us workers need a break now and then. Still have to work and pay our taxes so we can make sure the Govt. has plenty of money to educate the young ones.

If you where left hand driving car I could find it for ya cisco...

I got 3 AFM gasket, that one need to renew everytime takes it off, for USD$1 / ea, I found pretty cheap, and doom light swith at both door, two for USD$8, and yap, they are genuine parts. The most expensier parts was the master mat, because mine is full of pet skings + dry coffee everywhere, so I decided to not to wash it, so the mat was USD$80... ahh, and pair of sun visor for $35.
