Revision as of 22:06, 20 November 2021
For all the details, pictures, procedures and accurate information it is a must to get a Repair manual (service or maintenance book). It will pay for itself. The recommend book is a two volume set of Nissan factory service manuals (FSM). Also recommended is to get an original Owners manual. These contains wiring diagrams and specifications for fluids and lubricants. The repair manuals also include detailed troubleshooting guides and pictures or drawings of all repair procedures.
Contents |
Overview
Public Library
The genuine Nissan factory publications are usually in the reference section of the main library, local branches don't usually have them.
Your local branch is more likely to have one of the following non-factory manuals:
- Chilton Import Cars 1980-1987
- Clymer Datsun 210
- Clymer Nissan 210/Sentra
- Chilton Nissan 210/1200/B210
- Chilton Datsun B210
- Haynes Datsun B210
All of these explain how to rebuild an A14 and have specifications. There are tons more, but these are the most common in libraries.
If you are in Australia, look for these:
- Datsun 1200, Scientific Publications
- Datsun 120Y, Gregory's
- Datsun Sunny, Autobooks
- Datsun 1200, Haynes
Sources/Shops
Places to get a service manual:
- Local library. Smaller city libraries can often order the book from the central branch. Larger cities usually have a good selection, perhaps even the factory manauls. For example, the King County Library in WA USA has both the factory manuals, and almost every other brand for the Datsun 1200. They can also order books from the Seattle Public Library, which is even bigger and has Mitchell Emission Diagram books.
- Local booksellers
- Amazon (used or new): Datsun 1200 repair manuals on Amazon.com
- eBay: eBay Datsun 1200 search. These are *not rare* in USA or Australia, so you should be able to get a new or good used one for $5-$10 or less if you are patient and wait for one to become available at that starting price.
- Online: Nissan A12 Engine Manual (in Spanish)
Factory Service Manual
A factory service manual can be purchased for as little as $10 on eBay, though $20-$75 is a more typical price — they are not rare. The factory service manual (FSM) is in two parts:
* A12 Engine Service Manual (1971: A10 and A12 Engine) * Chassis And Body
For 1973, these were combined into one book.
They were published in various editions and revisions by:
- Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. Tokyo [for JDM and USA markets]
- Nissan Automobile Company (Canada) Ltd.
- Nissan Motor Co. (Australia) Pty. Ltd.
Not only is the FSM from the designers of the Datsun 1200, but they generally have the most and best photos and diagrams. The other brand of repair manuals usually have reproductions of the Nissan photos, or just drawings, sometimes of poor quality.

Owner's Manual
Also recommended is to get an original Owner's manual. These list general maintenence schedules, capacities, specifications for oils, etc. Owners manuals come up for sale on eBay from time to time.
Owner's manual includes among other things:
- Gas station information
- Daily Care
- Operational guide (e.g. when to shift, towing information, etc)
- Wiring diagram (some owner's manuals, other's don't)
- Maintenance schedule
Non-factory Repair Manual
Brands: The following publishers make repair manuals specific to the Datsun 1200:

-
- Datsun 1200 1970-73 Autobook [includes pick-up (B120)] (by Kenneth Ball, Autopress, LTD)
- Comments: Quirky British text
- Chilton's (many various editions)
-
- Comments: OK book. Chilton's is the mass-market leader in USA, and their product is a sort of "corporate" repair manual for the mechanic trade. That means there a zillion differing editions, and a good used book trade. On the plus side, they are superior in the general mechanic's information -- very useful for beginners -- i.e. safety, tools explanation (nice photos of tools), tire and spark plug troubleshooting photos. They even have thir own photos of actual parts, supplemented with Nissan drawings. Also instead of a regular (confusing) wiring diagram, they have schematics for invidual circuits -- a nice thing. But it seems they don't love the cars they cover. For example, the 1997 printing covers 1973-1981 (but mysteriously, not 1971 and 1972 models), and sometimes their step-by-steps seem to be missing something. Note that the 1997 edition is printed on low-grade paper.
-
- Clymer (many various editions)
- By Alan Ahlstrand
-
- Comments: Covers 1200 & B210. Early editions have many wiring diagram (e.g. 1978 edition), later editions have none. A fairly good book which looks like it is a repackage of the FSM data (and photos) into a more concise edition, focusing on the repair aspects. Has very good tune-up information.
- Gregory's (aka Scientific Publications)
-
- See '#Scientific Publications' below
-
- Haynes (many various editions)
- By J.H. Haynes, out of UK
-
- Comments: 1986 printing has export wiring diagrams (three total). The main advantage over the FSM is that Haynes has organized all procedures into clear step-by-steps. Plus a few charts (including American-UK English word chart) make this a decent book. And of course the famous Terry Davey 'cutaway' drawing on the cover is priceless (NOTE: not all editions have this).
- InterEurope No. 206
-
- Comments: A nice-looking book published out of UK. It has interesting British writing, a few tidbits here and there, while "brevity and simplicity" is the stated aim. Lots of charts, export wiring diagram, and an exclusive two-page 'autoservice data chart' suitable for your garage.
