KdotGong521 Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 Whats up to all the datsun fam out there. My name is K. And i would like to introduce myself and my datsun that has been stored in my garage for about 5 years now, she has been put sitting patiently waiting to shine. Now i have the chance to get her running and basically turn her into a winter project. I have been a member of Ratsun for a while now but i have been a lurker not really posting or being active. My Plans for the truck at this moment is to get her running which i dont think will take much, so if your in San Diego and dont mind helping a fellow member out PM me... I have already started the process of stripping the paint and interior to find that this truck does not have much rust. The engines a L16 with what seems to be a rebuilt head but i will know further once i crack the valve cover also I think the tranny is a dogleg 5. 1 Quote Link to comment

hobospyder Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 Go to photobuckey.com, register, upload photos to there. Copy image link for photo and paste into ratsun. Ratsun does not host pictures. You need an image hosting account 1 Quote Link to comment

KdotGong521 Posted October 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 Thanks to the crew that has found my post so far. This build is going to be a slow to mid build for her to come together as money permits. I already have a Ka motor that I will be building once I get the L16 going as a daily for now. 1 Quote Link to comment

KdotGong521 Posted October 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 Heres a problem that im having. So i had to go out this weekend and get a new key for my ignition and i did not lable the ignition itself. The other problem is, the truck has been rewired so the colors of wire are diffrent. 1 Quote Link to comment
KdotGong521 Posted October 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2015 Is the middle screw, ground ? I have changed my oil and cleaned up the engine compartment of all webs. The oil that was in the truck was good light consistancy. Next ill drain tranny, and rear end oil. Add new plugs, wires, fluids and try to fire her up to see where we are at. 1 Quote Link to comment
