If it looks the same style as mine (see avitar on the left) or in my members photo album, then its what is known as a B120. They made these in Australia up until the end of 1985.

If its standard it should have a 1200 motor same as other Datsun 1200's. It will have a slightly different (better) diff. Being a 78 model it should also have a disc brake front end (correct me if I'm wrong other ute owners).

Not sure on prices in your country, but if it were $500 here it would be a B A R G A I N

Hope this helps

Anyone got any ideas on a CA18DE (Non Turbo) Motor that misses and hesitates between about 1200rpm and 3000?

Idles and starts fine
Goes well above about 3000
Problem is there all the time not necessarily under load.
Seems to improve a bit as engine warms up.

I was thinking along the lines of maybe a vacuum leak somewhere amongst all the little vacuum lines, not sure though - can't find any info on a vacuum hose schematic or something.

What do you guys reckon??

Any common problems with these motors I can start with before delving deep into the unknown....................

I.ve been kicking the idea around of doing mine silver for a long time. The trouble is there are so many variations some look good others look #$@%.

Just get her back to bare metal / file finished and hit it with about 50 coats of clear

Don't suppose there is any chance of resetting the top photos list on the home page.

Its a bit frustrating to see the same five or so pics there week in week out.

I dont think it will change because every visitor to the site just clicks on those photos and the numbers just keep stackin up.............................

Thanks Guys!

I've sorted out my photo dramas and have posted a couple now. If anyone is interested I found a Freeware program called Irfranview. Its very easy to use - just open this then open up the photo you want to post - select what you would like to resize it to and thats it.
I just double check the properties of the image before I send but I dont seem to be having any dramas now.

Sounds alright then. Just make sure to double check the valve clearances also if its a fresh motor if you havent already done it.
