Hello everyone,
I managed to fix my problem with the gearbox. I connected the control solenoid in the box to the intake manifold and the car runs fine now! But today i went to start the car and it simply didn`t work. The start inibitor is not connected but i think that`s not the problem! Anyone has any ideas what the problem can be? I turn the key and there`s no signal, it doesn`t even make any noise.

Thanks

Dave is correct. If you are getting power to your gauges and interior but no power to your starter, it could be the battery terminals but you should most of the time get a "click" from the solenoid. Try to run power directly to the starter solenoid and see if it will turn over. If so, check under your dash at your ignition key for a faulty connection on the starter wire.

Thank you again, it was the starter wire that was disconnected!

Cheers

Once again i`m having problem with my auto gearbox. Everytime i stop the car the gearbox fluid seam to run out of the gearbox to the floor.I can`t figure it out where it comes from! any ideas?

To find the leak, clean underneath especially around the gasket area. Then after your next drive inspect it. It should be easier to determine where the leak .

Look for 'clean' sections of the casing etc and trace that clean section back to the relevant seal or gasket. What happens, usually, is that a slow seeping oil leak will keep 'washing clean' the area where it is leaking out from. Usually the dirtier sludge like sections are where the oil settles and picks up dirt, so it's where the cleaner sections are that oil is actually seeping.

If I had to make a guess, if the source isn't easily detectable, that it's the front pump seal where the convertor inserts into the front of the transmission. It's fairly common that eventually this seal will start to leak, just due to the nature of what/where it has to seal and how they spin and even a little bit to do with alignment of the transmission to the block, the 'centreline' of the crank and transmission axis of rotation can be a thou or two off, esp if the trans and engine were originally not mated together from the factory. But even then it's still possible with the original. TO be fair, datsuns in general are well machined and they don't tend to have alignment issues like that, so it's (imho) more likely that if in fact the front pump seal is leaking, it'll just be due to natural wear and tear, not misalignment, I'm just mentioning it to try and cover all bases.
