Hi all Just a question as a fellow Datsun friend and I are disagreeing on the matter although I think he has a point. My cabin heater core tap got stuck due to rust and age in the closed position. I then decided many years ago to bypass it in the engine bay and neatly put plugs in the firewall where the pipes would have entered. It is currently connected as follows: pipe from the BOTTOM radiator hose is joint to a T and then enters the cylinder head at the back. So radiator water permanently flows into the back of the cylinder head. As you know, when the cabin heater is activated, radiator water will anyway flow this way. My friend say I must rather block the cylinder head at the back and also the radiator T piece as it is cold water entering the cylinder head while hot water from the engine block enters the cylinder head from below. This might cause a cold spot at the back of the cylinder head. I believe he has a valid point but can it cause harm? Must I rather block so that water only flow from engine block to cylinder head?
The races starts at minute 7:45. I throw it off the road at minute 18:35 (brain fade). There were two minis in my class, one grenaded the motor and the other one broke the exhaust. I got past the wounded mini on the last corner but flubbed the downshift and he got back by right at the finish. Was great fun.
I haven't got any interest. Thinking of taking it with me to Brisbane with me next week. Will list it on facebook when i get there. Wanted to give the Datsun 1200 club a shot first.
John hope you get that lil beast going again, was good to see you cruising in the area long ago as you and I were some of the only guys driving analog machinery as dailys. We where like 5 minute drives from each other then, seems like a different life for me now I am in another world. Still love Terra Australis but we saw the writing on the wall as it is a corporate commonwealth registered under the SEC in washing DC running the show
if you ever come to Japan let me know and I will steer you away from toxic tokyo were most drones end up as a have to.
