I can't guarantee this will help you, but below is a link from ColourBox a member on here who graciously scanned the Factory Service Manual (FSM) for a 1981 I know you have a 1980 but it could be the same. Anywho a link to the FSM below, and I would look in the EF or EC sections might be able to help you including a troubleshooting section in the EF portion about the carburetor.

The reason you are getting so much guff in my opinion is you are coming here and asking questions that pretty much equate to "Hey you have never seen my car and don't know the state of repair/disrepair it is in, please fix with minimal information". I don't agree with hazing the new guy, but a picture of your engine bay with maybe little circles around the vacuum hoses that you don't know where they go would be much more helpful. Also it took me 1 internet search to find a PDF form of a Datsun 210 Factory Service Manual. Please do yourself a favor and download that and save it to your phone or to a tablet or PC.

Good Luck I hope this helps. 1980 FSM below

1979 FSM - I noticed very nice overhead look at the engines and you could probably decipher the vacuum hoese from that.

Well, fastest way to check is....

 

1: Get a good buddy to help

 

2: Have said buddy get in car and wait for your order to crank it

 

3: Pull out a spark plug with spark still hooked up in spark plug wire boot.

 

4: Hold spark plug boot while placing spark plug on something metal for ground, exp, block or exposed part of cylinder head

 

5: Tell buddy to crank over car. You should be able to tell really quick if your getting spark or not.

 

Remember, Gas+Spark+Air= running car. If you have these three variables in play, your car should be running.
