Thanks mate. I don't have a k10, but a PK10. Mostly same engine and carburettor and pretty much the same symptoms. You gave some ideas what to do and what to check. Unfortunately, with a car as old and not as appreciated, it's difficult to find someone to fix the problems. I've been disappointed by mechanics so much, that I'd rather try to fix it by myself than spend money to get my stuff broken.
I sold the car a month or two ago now. Ended up taking the security cover off the mixture screw and adjusting it a bit. I managed to get the idle back to normal and it seemed to start and run well
Nice Video.I have a 1986 Nissan B11 with Nikki carburettor.When the engine starts the idle stucks in 1600 rpm even it's warm.Never drops to 800 rpm.Can you help me please what to check for a start?Thanks 😀
I would start looking for air leaks after the throttle butterfly. Extra air being drawn in will cause a high idle. Like the wear in the throttle shaft that I found on mine
@@Thecarislife when you say after you mean deeper? If i hold the throttle shaft clockwise, it returns to normal 800 rpm.But if i left the shaft it returns to 1600 rpm. Thanks for your fast reply!!!

It's turning out to be a great little car!!
It’s getting there. I’ve managed 450 miles in it so far
Hi Adam enjoyed the Video can I ask where you got the carb rebuild kit from? Thanks
Hi John. I got it from autodoc. But I’ve seen some on eBay too
@@Thecarislife Thanks mate will check it out. I need to get my project going when the weather gets a bit better.
Yeah it’s a bit cold at the moment to be outside all weekend
It's 5 months later, how did you get on with the issue? :) Would be interesting to see if you managed to fix it.

@user-bh9my8it6l check the tension on the throttle cable and find out why it doesn’t naturally sit where you hold it
@@Thecarislife OK. Thanks for your fast reply once more 😊!!! I will start from the cable.
From where did you by the joints?? I need it please
I got all the parts from autodoc
@@Thecarislife link please 🥺
Stick a pair of weber 40's on it 😆
😂😂 might defeat the point of an eco commuter
