Won't run? Engine, cooling system, fuel pump, carb, clutch, tranny, brakes, etc. The old messages from the NPCA 'Engine & Mechanical' category are here.

One more distributor question.  I have been corresponding w/Pertronics about thier electronic ignition kit.  They need to know model number.  Does anyone have this info for a '66 Hitachi waterproof?

Never mind. I found the info in my owners manual. Amazing what you can find when you look.

Hey, let me know if you find out the WP distro work with the pertronics kit. I think I heard through the grapevine that it won't. I beleive you need the P40 motor distro. This info would be very helpful if you can get it to work. Thanks,Andy

Hey Andy,   They have asked for a photo of points.  I will send sometime today and let you know what they say.  I tried to follow all the threads in reference to this modification but in the end I figured I would just try it myself when needed.  I'll let you know what I find out.   Pete

I have been unable to locate points for the WP distro. I have some very, very old Hitachi points in my distro now....almost worn through the contact. Have you found something that will work?Andy

Points should still be available through Nissan - I ordered some not too long ago. The part number is: 22145-58000. It's the condensor that is hard to find, but pretty much any condensor that will fit will work.Re: Pertronix. I have been down that road with them before. I gave them the model number of the WP dizzy, and they said that they didn't have anything listed that would work. But they said if I could bring them a dizzy, they could probably find one that fit, or make one custom. I live about 30 miles from Pertronics...

Spike, Thanks for posting this info. I contacted Richard Oliver at Motorcare and ordered a bunch of distributor parts. They arrived as per order in just a couple of days from Queensland, AU. Very cool!! Obviously a bit of freight involved but they have it all and are quick to ship. Regards, Jeff
