With it missing in a specific rpm... there are TWO wires to look at. First is the wire from the "-" coil connection to the 1/4 spade on the side of the distributor. I always carried a spare ready to

At least the good news is I have had almost zero interest in selling my '66 1600's. Life's Irony. Much cheaper to get one running, and park my 3/4 ton daily driver. U20 fuel mileage -- with correct t

One of the Texas owners had fitted an Air Conditioning unit to his U20. Compressor sat where you'd find an air pump. Rest of the unit, evaporator and fan, sat in the TRUNK! Air was blown up from behi

Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 11:51:40 -0700 (PDT)
Remember the "trick" Nissan used was to set the timing at 0 BTDC, but with air injecting into the exhaust manifold. This allowed for UNBURNT fuel to be post ignited after combustion. At that time (1

Flywheel attach: 6 bolts for R16, 12 for U20 engine. Crank nose is different. (U20 sticks out longer for the timing chain). Longer stroke (more offset) on the U20. Yep, look at the bolt holes. Tom __

Correct. The rear jackshaft bearing for the U20 should have THREE HOLES in it. They need to be lined up correctly to bring oil up to the head. The R16 Camshaft uses the same bearings, but R16 only n

If the ground strap is in place, and everything else looks good: Try a "remote starter". Just a direct connection from the battery to the starter solenoid terminal. If that works, you have a problem

Yes and no. :) If the front cross member is notched, it will clear the L16's oil pump. Allows the engine to sit low enough to clear the hood. Obviously, if you don't notch the cross member, you need

Trailer. Thankfully a roadster at 2200# is still pretty light, so a small single axle trailer will work fine. Flat Towing: The early steering box has just a "peg" into the worm gear. When flat towing
