Loryde520 Posted September 17, 2015 Report Share Posted September 17, 2015 I just bought this little gem in Portland Or, and brought it home to Mission BC. I'm new to the Ratsun scene, and really luv it! There is tons of info in this forum, and has already steered me in the right direction. The PO has already done the dirty work and installed an L16 with a 510 4spd. Just a bunch of minor things, and she is road ready. Seems to run alright, although pushes some blue on de-acceleration. Valve seals?? I will keep everyone posted with pix as I go along. I am however in need of a few small items that were missing. Thanks for now, Loryde 520. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted September 17, 2015 Report Share Posted September 17, 2015 Welcome to Ratsun Loryde. To prevent endless discussions and opinions we ask that you start an ad in our classifieds if looking for or buying anything... http://community.ratsun.net/classifieds/category/3-datsun-parts/?sort_key=date_added&sort_order=desc This keeps the discussion forums clear. On your next post please post some pictures of your little gem of a truck.... http://community.ratsun.net/topic/54932-photobucket-ratsun/ Smoke on deceleration is likely the rings. A blue puff on restart after sitting is more the valve seals. The seals are not expensive and there is an old trick for holding the calves in place without compressed air so you can remove and replace the seals without removing the head.. 1 Quote Link to comment
