At least you got a nice clean carb now dude lol . I remember we always used to carry a couple of spare sets of points in the glove box years back because they were always a problem area . The old Datsun still looks lovely 👌 she’ll be ready for the next outing now 👍
A few days later I went and got a second set for the glove box!! 😂 cheers, I do love it!! It’s slowly getting better as I run out of things that can break!!
I’ve had 5 Datsun 620 j15’s I’ve spent 100’s of thousands on the engines ! They are not reliable at old age - put a Sr20de in or a d20 diesel 2:00 . Save yourself stress and money
I think I’m slowly coming around to that conclusion also. I really like the j15 but it’s has had such a hard life and everything on it is badly worn. To get it reliable again would cost to much and I might as well put that money into an sr20 like you say
@@missioncapri I had a car where I had replaced the carburettor which gave the thought of fuel issues and it ended up being that the condenser was faulty.

love that old truck. Just bought a 1970 521. I am messing with points on mine. Have not done points in years.
Nice 👍 after this video I can definitely recommend keeping a spare set!! 😂
used to love those old nikki carbs had one on a mk1 escort years ago
I love the window on it. Helps loads!! Although this carb has had a very tough life!! Much more worn than my Weber carb on my ford.
1st get a ignition coil with a resistor 2nd the condensor on the distributor n the points
Should’ve just galloped 😅 Hopefully see u soon 👍🏻
And the makeup brush… it’s really good, as opposed to rarely good 😂 2:00
Hahaha I would of got there quicker!! Look forward to seeing you!!
I like the old trucks but not when they broke down.😅
Haha that’s all the time!!
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
Hahaha these problems were sent to test me!!

Did you change points and condenser or only points?
I just went ahead and replaced both. I’ve kept the old one as a spare though.
