electric distributor for 240z?

[datfreak]

I'm posting this here because it involves aust models.

Is the 280zx the only model that has the normal conversion "80" module electric dizzy?

I have heard 280c's and same r30's have the same but i wanted to make sure before i went wrecker hunting.

My current 280zx dizzy has a stuffed vaccum advance unit and probably needs a rebuild anyways.. Is there any rebuild kits for these?

Any ideas?

My L26s vac advance unit is also stuffed.....so I'm also wondering if there's a rebuild kit available?

Whats to 'rebuild' on them? I'd be replacing the shaft bearings and getting the rest of the components tested and checked, if the bearings are ball type then any good bearing supplier should be able to help. Caps and rotors? Check with Nissan or your local auto parts supplier.

There isn't a rebuild kit for the vac unit, either buy a new one or visit pinch-a-part.

My dizzy came from the skyline with the L24. Exactly the same thing. I just rung up the local wrecker and asked them for an electric dizzy for an L6.

Go to supercheap and grab the bosch or ngk book and look up nissan. Look for listings that give the engine as L24E or L28E.

i found a few today BUT all have stuffed vaccum advances..

nissan wants $100 for the part..

I did a few phone calls and it seems there isnt a aftermarket replacment..

The $100 isnt the issue-- i just hate being ripped

How do you test the vacuume advance unit - i have a spare electronic dizzy if someone wants it (offers)?

[datfreak]

to test the vaccum advance, put a small length of vaccum hose on the dizzy advance unit and suck hard on the other end..

it will "give" a little but it shouldnt leak----if you can draw lots of air thru it its stuffed

if you have the cap off you will also see the plate move, which advances the dizzy.
