From the Radiator Fan back= I thought it was 1-3-4-2. ???

WHy does a 1981 210 have 1-2-3-4 for firing order. Thats how my brothers has his.

Read that counter clockwise. Its 1342. This is the direction the rotor turns.

[Mini-L320]

:confused: ?? from the back of motor to front he has his like this. back 4-3-2-1 front

 

How is it 1342 :confused:

[datzenmike]

4 3

2 1

 

This is on the distributor cap? Under the cap the rotor starts at the number one and turns counter clockwise to 3 then 4 then 2 and back to 1.

1

2

3

4

WINDSHIELD

 

 

Set the motor to TDC on the firing stroke and lift the cap off. The rotor should be below the #1 spark plug wire. Going counter clockwise the next wire is 3 then 4 then 2 and back to one.

On the Datsun Manual Book it says, to put the rotor facing Opposite from #1

 

Now Im really Confused :confused: :confused: :confused:

 

Cause I cant tell if my Timing is way off or my ZX11 Carbs are Way off.

It cranks over and tries to start but it back fires from the carbs. I see flames coming out???

They mean next to the #1 trust me. If the plug wires are not in the 1342 order you will get flames.

[Mini-L320]

I will try that Tommorrow then. If this doesnt work then Im just gonna get rid of the CVK's and put the Stock carb back in it.

 

I wonder how much I can get for the ZX Carb setup. :rolleyes:

Almost all inline 4s are 1-3-4-2 -- and certainly all Datsun ones.
