  1. It might be Wurth Stone Guard. Wurth USA Wurth Stone Guard Video
  2. So what is missing from the list of things needed for the engine to run? Air, Fuel or spark? Make this happen again and then check to see if you have spark. this will narrow it down.
  3. They look like car license plate mounts. You can find them at Runnings or ACE in the hardware section in pull out boxes. Probably any auto parts store too. We have an Auto Value store here and they have a stockpile of the plastic parts.
  4. You may have hard starting issues with that much initial advance setting. I would set the timing at 0­° and hook up the vacuum advance to manifold vacuum port (not ported). If you have never done any research on ported vs manifold vacuum source for your vacuum advance now is the time. I won't steer you either direction. BTW your vacuum advance canister is adjustable. You have to remove the clay plug to get to the screw(s), then adjust it with the engine running and using a mityvac pump to activate your vacuum advance and adjust it down if you have to. Have you run the engine and actually checked to see how much vacuum advance you are really getting by hooking it up to manifold vacuum and keeping the idle rpm under the mechanical activation point?

    Reproduction Matchbox Distributor replacement magnet 22158S6700 22158-S6700. Greeting all. Great news, after a year and a half of design and testing I have finally finished my latest project. I now have for sale replacement distributor magnets for all matchbox Datsun distributors. This is the magnet that most people find broken when they do a distributor repair. The original magnets become brittle and stick to the stator and usually break in multiple pieces when you pull the stator off. The magnet has become NLA (no longer available) from Nissan. I purchased about 30 of them a couple of years ago and sold them and tried to order more and they were all gone. I thought that finding the material to make a reproduction magnet would be pretty EZ.....not! The issue is that most flexible magnet material is not magnetized correctly and has very poor magnetism retention and the material is not suitable for hi temperatures. The material will loose its magnetism and the material will degrade when exposed to temperatures over 150°. After contacting all of the big magnet experts I was running out of hope and that is when Captain Obvious contacted me and we talked about what I was attempting to accomplish and he suggested a place I had not contacted. After contacting this company, I was able to purchase a material that is the same thickness and has a temperature rating of 250° and has the correct polarity needed to generate the induced voltage to trigger the ICM. The sample that was sent to me was cut out and tested in all 3 of my Z cars and I then sent it to Captain Obvious for some in depth bench testing for signal strength and quality. The results of the bench testing were great. This replacement material actually generates a higher signal strength at both idle and hi RPM ranges. Peak voltage at idle for an OEM magnet was 1.28v. Peak voltage with my reproduction is 1.68v, that is a 25% increase in induced voltage signal strength going to the ICM to trigger the coil. Peak voltages at 2500 rpm for an OEM magnet was 2.96v. Peak voltage with my reproduction magnet is 4.00v. That is also a 25% increase in signal strength. With the higher signal strength, extremely hi temperature rating and an exact copy of the design my reproduction magnet is a great option when rebuilding your distributor. Couple this with my improved breaker plate bearing retainer and you will have many years of reliability from your distributor. Here is a couple of pictures of an NOS Nissan magnet next to my reproduction magnet. I challenge you to tell me which is which. I had to mark them to tell the difference. A huge thank you to Captain Obvious!

  7. Please post how they fit as I also need some for my front rims.
  8. I noticed that when you go to the XenonZcar.com site for the FSM, everything works until you try to open a chapter in one of the manuals. The chapter is blank when using Chrome but works normal in Firefox. The chapters also fail to open with Edge. I posted this on the ZCar.com site and had some replies. Browser issues

  11. I have a latch from a 3/74 260z. Here is a picture. If you need one let me know and we can work something out. Craig
  12. I have always put a couple of pumps from the grease gun into the end of the crank after installing the bushings.
