- Does your idle change with temperature?
I am not a carb guy but this might help. Let me know what you think. http://www.teglerizer.com/sucarbs/garrettech.html BGM- Weak brakes
Rear brake adjustment. Adjust by hand if auto adjusters not working. Raise rear tires you should feel slight drag on the drum when you rotate the wheel by hand with properly adjusted rear brakes. And a firm pedal.- Datsun Dealership Signs!

Did you look at oil filter and sending unit.- Datsun racing, vintage footage?
1975 Camel GT Race at Mid-Ohio Super 8 Movie WOW just when you thought you saw all the video. I love that old footage. Hope to see more please. This past June i made it to mid ohio. Got to see john run his sedan the sound was unreal as the cars zoom by. Also got a hand sake from the man. The vintage grand prix at mid ohio featuring datsun. We got track side show space and first out for parade lap out of maybe 700 other cars there. Also meet good people from the ohio z clubs and had a great time. 1969 PRE DATSUN DETROIT V8's keeping PORSCHE to the rear. A insight to racing in the us 1969. BGM In car pic my 83 zx,- Hi!

- going into gear problem
If there is not a worn mount. Make sure to use brake when engaging gears. Adjust rear brake with emergency brake per FSM. If adjusters are frozen you can adjust by hand in the drum. If they don't move service your brakes. With the rear drum brakes adjusted right this noise will be eliminated.Auto trans Quirk.- Mid Range RPM Hesitation
Here is a good read. From: pharvey@mipos3.intel.com (Paul Harvey) Newsgroups: rec.autos.tech Subject: SU/Hitachi variable-venturi carbs theory of operation Date: 12 Feb 92 19:28:41 GMT "These carbs are very simple and very reliable relative to multiple- jet/air-bleed type fixed venturi carbs. They have only one jet! So how do they work? Through a sliding piston arrangement, they maintain the same air velocity through the venturi, independent of air flow, by varying the size of the venturi. So as the air flow increases, the piston moves up and the size of the venturi increases and the air velocity remains the same! Now, if the velocity through the venturi is constant, that means that the vacume on the fuel bowl is constant, (Bornoulli's law), and that means you can exactly meter the correct amount of fuel into the air. A sliding needle is attached to the piston and it is machined with a slight taper so that as the piston moves up, more fuel is metered out of of the jet port so that the air-fuel ratio is kept constant, independent of air flow. The port is threaded, and a dial turns it so it can be moved up or down relative to the needle so the idle mixture can be adjusted. Note this also affects the mixture at all speeds. An engine needs fuel enrichment during acceleration, so this is done by a one-way oil damper on the piston. The oil damper delays the piston on its up-stroke, so in this case the velocity through the venturi is higher than normal and more fuel is sucked out of the jet port than normal, which gives you enrichment! The thickness of the oil changes the duration of the enrichment period as well as the ratio of enrighment. That's it! Compare this to a modern Weber-type carb sometime. I'll let someone else do that! Sure, there are a few negatives! This type of carb is not easy to modify relative to a Weber-type which can me modified in ten-thousand different ways. The only things that can be varied are the jet and needle valve, the idle mixture, and the damper oil! Of course, this means if you modify your engine, you probably will not need to modify your carb to compensate. The machining of the piston needs to be precise, so some British manufactured carbs are a problem. Of course, Weber-type carbs need more precise machining! You do not get the instant throttle response of a good Weber setup, but acceleration is limited by the speed at which the engine can push the car, but most people like fast throttle response anyway! Air leaks around the throttle bushings cause them to perform even worse than Weber-types with the same problem. And this carb never really made it through the emissions era, there are some emissions versions, (73-74 Datsun Z), that mostly are junk and cannot be maintained. But there is nothing like the woosh sound of these carbs, and just imagine how much fun you can have asking people what type of oil to put in them!" http://yarchive.net/car/carb_oil.html http://yarchive.net/car/index.html- Need bumper parts
