Doobie Posted July 27, 2021 Report Share Posted July 27, 2021 I was on Datsun garage.com they have a points condenser listed but according to them it’s only for 72-73 620’s my question is will it work in my 77 620? Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted July 28, 2021 Report Share Posted July 28, 2021 The L16/18 and L20B use different part numbers but a condenser is just a 12v capacitor to reduce arcing of the points when they break contact. Try it if you can't get the correct one. Quote Link to comment

Doobie Posted July 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2021 Thanks for the part #’s!! I called Napa and have one of each on order , the guy told me about this company https://pertronixbrands.com/products/pertronix-1741-ignitor-datsun-4-cyl?variant=31797236039716 Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted July 30, 2021 Report Share Posted July 30, 2021 (edited) I like Pertronix but you have to have the correct distributor for this to work the Later L20s are single point but the magnet ring in the kit does not fit over the ring boss on the dist shaft. it must be machined down for the Magnet ringfrom the Pertronix kit to fit on to the point lobes if you have a photo I can tell if iy will not or not Edited July 30, 2021 by banzai510(hainz) Quote Link to comment
