Hey thanks for all the responses! I live just outside of Geelong, Victoria. Beautiful place -we are on ten steep acres going down to the Moorabool River and look up an awesome valley. Building the house and establishing the property has really made me put the car projects on hold. Whilst building the house I bought a FIAT 128 3P Coupe, FIAT 124 AC Coupe and a 124 Spider. They all did not last very long-to much work needed on all of them when I was already to busy-but they all returned healthy profits, thats something I suppose. I don't want this to happen to the Datto - I really want to drive and enjoy this car.

I did notice the car on Ebay and that it had a similar fuel problem-I will definately check the line near the tank-thanks for that. I hope to have a play with the car over the next couple of days so I will let you know how I get on.

Sorry I have never had a 120Y or any other Datsuns.

By the way guys do 1200 front disc bakes/strut assembly (if these exist) fit directly onto the 1000. I will probably need to rebuild the brakes and if I have to it would be a good time to fit discs. Any info greatly appreciated-I really know very little about the inter changeability between Datsun models.

Thanks again for all your encouragement.
