    Micra fuel tank leak

    Yes, it opened very easily. In fact, so easily I realised there might be a problem. I was investigating a large dirt patch on the body paint around the fill door. Further examination revealed some bubbled up rust where the cap seals might contact the fill neck. This may or may not have opened an...

    Micra fuel tank leak

    A leaky container is open air. It's a bit like saying steam only escapes in open air. It doesn't. Steam would push open the pot lid and escape. Same principle for petrol. Steam has a certain pressure, likewise for petrol fumes. When the container isn't able to withstand that pressure, the...

    Photo evidence demonstrates otherwise. Reversing a chemical reaction that produces heat would produce cold.

    Micra fuel tank leak

    It can be opened easily. There is no liquid leak. Therefore it must be a pass then? It's an air leak that allows evaporation.

    You need to keep with the times. Google AI: AI Overview Learn more Yes, a battery can get cold when it discharges, especially in cold environments, because the chemical reactions happening inside the battery that produce electricity also generate heat; when the battery is discharging, these...

    AC DC Adaptor fail

    The charger battery becomes a fridge during discharge and condenses air moisture into water. This will have to be dealt with by padding it with a thick towel. Water is pooling at the base as well as on the "ledge" below the top.

    Micra fuel tank leak

    The leak is slow enough to not produce a smell. The only evidence is petrol gone and rust bubbles at the cap area. Also dirt built up on paint around the filler door in a large patch. There should be a sensor to indicate a leak, i.e. vacuum pressure too low. Google: What does an evap fuel tank...

    Micra fuel tank leak

    I am looking at a slow fuel tank air leak due to corrosion of the filler neck around the cap area. This caused the petrol to evaporate over the course of a few months. So far this hasn't caused anything to light up on the dash. According to some reports on the internet, the corrosion is an MOT...

    AC DC Adaptor fail

    Here's the production version of the charge controller, based on the step up down DC converter I was using before. I have 3 units, 2 for in car use. Use of ethernet wires limits the maximum capability to 2 amps. For the in car units, these are protected by 250mA fuses on the supply and output sides.
