Yeah thanks.....

 

i have checked all the manifold and exhaust flange gaskets... but they are good and new... can't find any leak

But the car sounds bit noisy because of bad tappet clearance.. :hammer:

 

anyway i did a quick engine bay detailing job today...

I don't like it.

 

My first car in 1983 was a Datsun 1200 4 door, and it was indestructible despite my very best efforts. You may know this car as a B110.

 

It's life was tragically cut short one night (sob...) as I sped up the right lane of a dual carriage way, only to have a Nissan Urvan turn across my line from the left lane to park in a centre of the road parking spot.

 

Only another Datsun (Nissan) could have killed it.

 

Now you have reminded me of this traumatic event and I will be miserable till about 6.30pm

Hi... thankz 4 da commentz guyzzzz.....

 

a quick update...

 

I went to the carb tuner again... and adjusted my tappet( before it was a bit noisy :hammer: )

and also replaced a jet in the carb....

Now i can feel the difference ....yeah :yes:

 

The funniest thing is, i have calculated my fuel economy before the tuneup and it gave me an mind bending answer :hmm:

And the answer is => 10km/l zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz :finger: :finger:

i'm still thinking about that...... OMG that new ferrari FF also do about 6km/l.... :greenbounce:

compare it.... FF is approximately 6000cc and this little thing is just 1200cc :lmao:

anyway here's the pics

Do not put engine oil flush in a motor of this age !!!!

 

All it will do is loosen the crud and block your pick up !!!

 

Best way to clean it is, if your that worried, is strip the engine and scrub.

 

As long as you don't attempt to 'flush' it, the crud will happily stay where it is and you'll have many more years of happy motoring from your K.

 

Cheers, Scott.
