Hey thanks for the reply. Yes I looked into the carb when it starts to die and I do see fuel overflowing into it. What's strange is this is the second carburetor I've tried and getting the same results. This 36/36 is near new, I tried a brand new 38/38 before this one and same results. I'll take it off and give it a look. Would it make sense to go twin dcoe's to compensate for the extra fuel? Or is it more than likely a carburetor issue?

Hello everyone, I have a 76 B210 with an A14, Weber 36/36, stock NOS mechanical fuel pump, Adjustable FPR, and Fuel pressure gauge. With the engine running fuel pressure looks to be around 2.5-3psi, even though I have the FPR set to 0.5psi. Seems the carb is getting too much fuel because if empty all the fuel out of the carb, then place the fuel line back on, the car will run for maybe 20-30 seconds then gradually bog till it dies due to it getting to much fuel. Any ideas?

Thanks! That actually does help. I'm purchasing a knockoff hakotora kit to try to mount to a 1975 Sunny coupe, I'll record all the measurements since no one has done this yet.

Hello group, recently I've noticed so many Hakosuka Front end kits for Sunny trucks, however the front looks about the same as a coupe. Would the Sunny Hakosuka conversion not work on a b210/sunny coupe? And if not, why, as I don't have the exact measurements of the two in front of me.

Thanks for the tip! But datzenmike got it! I used an air compressor in the feed line and the car drives perfectly now! I'm currently in Texas, thanks again everyone for the help!

Got it haha, thanks again

Thanks so much, there is definitely a block of some kind in the feed tube from the tank. Any tips on clearing said block?

No dice, same issue.

Interesting, I'll give that a shot. Thanks for the reply

Hi hello, I'm attempting to drive from California to Georgia in my 1979 Datsun 200sx, L20b, Weber 38/38. I'm currently using both the mechanical pump and an electric under the tank. Whenever I try to go above 45-50mph (or going up hill), the carb apparently runs out of fuel, and stalls. I have to pull over and let the electric pump feed more fuel to move again. New fuel filter and electric fuel pump, new fuel lines, I can't understand why this continues to happen.

Thanks for both suggestions! I'll get a fuel pressure gauge immediately, and should've thought of a fuel filter earlier honestly 😭

This is my first time hearing of the anti-dieseling solenoid. I bought a factory a14 mechanical fuel pump and installed (incase the other was for a different vehicle) and same situation with the flooding. The 200sx is running decent now except up hills and over 80ish mph. The b210 with the A14 is still having this flooding issue. - Carb can't be the issue since I've tried 3 different Webers. - I got the tank completely cleaned so that's not it - it has jeep cj7 fuel filter with a return so I don't understand how it can still flood - with bowl empty, if I connect the fuel line to the carb and crank it'll run for maybe 5 seconds then floods out Might be time for an engine swap 😭

Thanks alot for the reply folks, I'm gonna get a new pump and see if it works out better than the other. Should I get another mechanical or go electric?

Hello, I have a 1976 B210 with a new but stock mechanical pump that's having a serious carb flooding issue. I can never get it to idle for longer than 10 seconds. I would disconnect the fuel line and crank with throttle fully engaged and it would run after a few seconds for a good while. I've tried 3 different brand new carbs: Weber 38/38, Weber 32/36, and now a 36/38 is mounted. I've connected a New cj7 fuel filter with return to the tank, no difference. Tried a Spectre fuel pressure regulator with the lowest pressure setting, and the pump still seems to be pumping at the exactly the same rate. Very unsure of where to go from here, I'll be purchasing a fuel pressure gauge to find out exactly how it's pumping soon. Thank you.
