How was yesterday fella's? Spewing I couldn't make it this year

japs hit the water jacket all the time intentionally
and epoxy them as the inlet doesnt need water so much
with all the fuel air at big cfm colling them down.

There is also jbweld and HTS 2000 brazing alloy rods
that work great and stronger the jb or other epoxies

There are several ways to weld aluminum. Very thin aluminum can be welded

Let us know how similar this USA harness is from AUS harness
* AUS tail lamps have 4 bulbs?
* USA tail lamps have 3 bulbs
However the tail lamps have their own connector to the tail harness so it my be OK
* may have lengths reversed. USA body harness goes down the right side of floor, I think AUS goes same


The TAIL HARNESS connects to
Body Harness
Tail Lights
License Lamp (coupe)
Fuel Sender harness (coupe)

Glad to hear that you got it open

yes adjusting the cable may help
in general lubrication is what is needed

latch receiver needs some grease


make sure the small screw is tight as it fasten the cable holder

underneath



moving parts of the latch also needs some grease including plunger rod




Then of course the handle pivots use a little oil
* If the cable is rusty that's a big problem, try soaking it in automatic transmission fluid
* If the cable clamp is loose that's another big problem

The relay is for Australia TCVAS

It used water temps, instead of air temps. TCVAS was disabled when engine coolant temperature was low, using this thermostat bolted to manifold side of cylinder head at the front



TCVAS is important as it reduces pollution. On the other hand if its not working performance doesn't suffer neither does fuel economy. Transmission Controlled Vacuum Advance System (TCVAS) disables spark advance except in Top Gear. Since this "retarded" spark timing reduces performance, to prevent cold-engine driving problems this system is bypassed in cold temperatures. This means vacuum advance works normally at cold temperatures. Additionally, onn the highway (in top gear) full power is always available

Does your 1985 ute have something like this on the intake manifold? Post your pics and I will add them to the tech article

Do you have the matching air flow meter and ECU? If so I would just install all the Nissan factory parts and get it running. Later you can experiment with modifications

hi adam you can use a standard A14/A15 gasket and notch it. use the H89 type wet gasket (for manifold with water ports)

Copy that. I've also received a 'posting timed out' message to my CL query. He's from my area, so if I can get in touch, I will let him know that there are buyers for his bits and pieces.

NOPE , SENT HIM A FEW MESSAGES ,
NO REPLY ,
WANNA KNOW IF HE SELL THE DASH TO TAIL LIGHT HARNESS (COUPE)
HOW MUCH ?
