Or mayb a short in the connection, check the small things like the fuses aswell, sometimes they can also loose contact.

Hi all
Was working on my van over the weekend and noticed that my motor is an "A14s"
Is this motor any diff from an A14? If so any info will be welcome. even links to sites that have info on the specs and stuff.
Thanx

I've seen this car run at the Durban drags and read the article in the local SA Speed N Sound magazine.
It really does a 13.85sec 1/4 mile (best time)
the car looks so stock and original, runs wid 13inch rims even at the drags. its a real sleeper of a car.

Sup der ppl
how fast can u make an A14 motor?? for a stock motor its pretty gutsy. im in South Africa and theres a datsun GX with an A14 motor running side'es, work on the head. think he's using ford tracer valves.don't kno all the specs, saw the car in a magazine.
anyway the car has no turbo or gas but does the 1/4 mile in 13.85sec!!!!! Thats QUICK 4 a 1400. i wana build my ute for drags using my A14. what power url think i can get out of it? or wat ET on the 400m?
All input highly welcome
