Charliebay510 Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Hello Guys, Decided to join the forum since Im pretty much on this forum digging for info. Also because I finally got my own 71 510 sedan now. A lot of good information and I am already finding discussions related to what I need. Just wanted to say good job and many thanks to all the info on here. One other thing, I have lost most of what i book marked on my computer so any good reads and info would be appreaciated. I know a lot of it is already pinned so I dont need those. There is a pinned thread of "Electrical" of almost all the datsun years and make of wiring diagrams. but they dont work anymore...anyone else have another link to that? Quote Link to comment

Charliebay510 Posted August 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Sorry for the late upload of the pictures, but there it is. Been busy getting my 510 to run. Every time I search Mike is always there. Props to you sir. Actually gonna follow what you said at a post i search that I have similar problems with. Remove valve cover and turm motor so that the intake and exhaust lobes (bumps) are facing upwards at about 10 and 2 o'clock as viewed from the front of the motor. Rocker arms should NOT be on either cam lobe.Set the motor on TDC using the timing mark on the crank pulley and the timing scale bolted to the timing cover just behind it.Remove distributor and look down hole from the driver's side fender. The distributor drive spindle slot should be not quite vertical... it should be at about 11:28 . If it isn't, drop the oil pump and re-position it until it is. Helps if you have a friend. Because of the helical gears it does not go straight in and turns as it is installed so you may have to make several attempts. You will also notice that the drive spindle has a slot to engauge the distributor that is slightly off-set to one side. This off-set should be to the front of the motor in order for the distributor to allign with the #1 plug lead on the cap.Once the drive spindle is set at the 11:28 position the distributor and oil pump can be bolted down. The rotor should be pointing to (or within adjusting range) of the #1 plug wire on the cap. Since mine is like this right now Quote Link to comment
