1. heaters (score: 1)

Actually, they ran on gasoline, and were pretty terrifying, but warm. I have a Norway- market Notch that has one in the nose. Good place to catch the occasional fender- bender, too! Toby B /// datsun

the 12v ones don't work (12v x 30a= 360 watts) as there's not much energy there. And they'll certainly do no favors for your alt! But we used block heaters in the NE on cold days to get the car star

You know, relatively soft shocks, air conditioning, a heater that works, lots of sound deadening, killer stereo... and it'd probably work well with the 5- speed ratios, especially if you could find a

Only the 2L's have this problem as the 1600's just have a solid front pulley. Toby /// datsun-roadsters@autox.team.net mailing list /// Archives at http://www.team.net/archive

Hi all, Sorry for the almost- spam, as I haven't been keeping up with the list at all... but I've got some doors and a hood that are going for scrap if noone will offer me either: a: a little cash b:

Check out Harbor freight and Northern tool (harborfreight.com and northerntool.com) because I seem to remember that they sell cheap (maybe $50) buffing motors. Now, they are gonna be low quality, bu

When you "reply" delete most of the junk underneath your post- I went to digest mode a while back to keep ahead of my mail, and some of these 'replies' get up to ten layers of >>>>>>>>! Thanks! Road

Author: Toby B <toby@wolfenet.com>
Date: Tue, 12 Sep 2000 23:43:46 -0700
A true servo doesn't have any teeth- if your synchros are brass colored with teeth, you have Borg style synchros. They're worn when the synchro teeth get within some dimension of the gear itself.. B

No Politics, eh? Not much valid science, either! (couldn't resist! <grin>) Ok, I got started on electric cars when I had a parts roadster lying around... I didn't want to trash the shell, but it wasn

Start with the "fuel or fire" question- are you sure it's getting spark at the PLUGS? If so, are you sure it's getting gas thru the carbs? A sudden stop like that, with no stumbling or spitting, is

we are! But then, not too many associate the 2002 with BMW as it now exists. Not unlike Datsun and Nissan, although I have to admit, BMW has been better at supplying new or factory-blessed 3rd party

my 1600 drains slowly, too- just ask Ross! Actually, I think what happens is that the first quart plugs all the drain- back holes, and then the subsequent quarts just fill up the rocker cover. It go

Did you test with a warm engine? Carbs propped open? valves set properly? If so, try a leakdown test- pressurize each cylinder at TDC, and listen to where air is escaping. Like the compression test,

Check your needles where they seat in the plungers. Mine were recessed into the plungers, giving me the same problem you're having... so I loosened the screw in the plunger, pulled 'em down, then re

The sealed beam requirement went away, but the pattern of the H4's and their reflector design didn't meet US spec up until recently. I think it still doesn't comply in some arcane way... With the gaw

You're right that primer is, indeed, porous, and it'll weep rust after 6 months in Seattle's rain. However, few (if any) primers, DP40 especially, have any UV protection, and oxidize after a few wee

You MIGHT be able to get away with no gasket on the float bowl but I had mis-assembled one once, and tucked a part of the gasket down inside the bowl. It didn't leak at idle, but on the road it spit

I know there are quite a few roadsters up here, but until last Thursday, I'd never met one when I was in my car. I was feeling sorry for myself (couldn't go to Shasta yet again) so I went out to make
