3. Can  any of the Datsun SU parts be crossed over to
the British SU parts?
4.  The car has a great deal of hesitation when first
starting out. Pull the  choke full on it goes away.
But, in order to drive it you need to pull the  choke
at each gear change. Too lean??? Doesn't get that much
better when  warmed up.

Darn few of the British SU parts will fit. They do have a good selection of  
needles.
 
Check the dash pot oil. Most likely there is none there. The factory says  
10w. ATF or Marvel Mystery Oil are popular.

The one on 311s.org is supposed to be the same but it's a step  behind.
