#476161 OMG sunny coupe Bee Racing
ddgonzal Posted on: 6/17 6:24
V I D E O: R130 Orido BeeRacing

1972 GX5 with what looks like Hayashi Street wheels


When up on the lift, the chassis underside looks every bit as beautiful as the sheet metal topside

* it has Nismo anniversary steering wheel
* newer engine (mid-dizzy)
* smallest battery i ever seen (ORIDO branded)

The BRIDE seats without headrests ... I don't know... looks cool but is it like riding a bike without a helmet?

I like how the garage lift is on a polished wooden floor next to a Porsche

Ah, gotta love a Datsun. My 1972 got 38 miles per gallon (6.2 L/100km). Going by the speedometer suggested 42 mpg, but that gauge was reading too fast. No wonder it took me so long to get anywhere


I had to replace some of my chokes, they had lost some springy-ness. After that only needed to adjust it once for winter and then again for summer. Datsun DCG usessame choke as Weber DGV/ Holley 5200.Only $12 at RockAuto

#476165 Time to adjust the automatic choke
ddgonzal Posted on: 6/17 19:25
Datsun 1200 used an automatic choke starting in 1976 (or starting 1972 for USA)

Since the amount of choke needed depends on outside temperature, adjust the automatic choke each summer and winter as necessary. When adjusted correctly, the engine should start on the first crank, and be able to take off immediately and drive the car without "warming it up"

Remove the lid of the Air Cleaner to inspect the choke. Here is the normal view of choke with the engine cold (engine off): the choke is almost completely closed. If you pump the accelerator pedal once, the choke should close 100% for flawless engine starting

If you do not see this, then adjustment is necessary. The secret to easy and correct adjustment is to adjust when the engine is completely cold. Then warm engine up fully, and double-check that the choke has 100% opened up


To adjust the choke, first remove the air cleaner — it must be removed to gain access to the choke. While removing, note any vacuum lines removed. These must be reconnected or temporarily plugged before running the engine

Adjustment procedure and photos are in the tech section at Choke Adjustment


I'm updating the photos, so posting some here that have been on FailBucket. These are of a larger DCH from a Datsun L20B engine but otherwise work exactly the same as the A12 version. For that matter so do most carburetors. Weber DGV is adjusted the same way

interesting, that C-329 says:

EXCERPT

not sure what the EXCERPT means, perhaps it was a thinner verion with just updates. In any case lLater that same year C-342 was released without the EXCERPT on the cover

The factory KPB210 with the skyline-style taillights is awesome

The Sunny Rocket B2100 is next level. This video features digital rendering, but is it also a real car???

In any case, enjoy the KPB210 at the beach and the sweet soul jazz song Sunny
