AngusAmangus Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 I believe the aforementioned part on my '84 wagon is faulty. I know I'll need to replace it at some point but have been unable to find the correct part online. I see many which are labeled as Nissan or Datsun. Will any of those work? Thanks for the help.

nipper Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Are there any markings on yours? All it is is a solenoid with a needle valve. Why do you think yours is bad? Nissan or datsun part will work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngusAmangus Posted April 28, 2016 Author Share Posted April 28, 2016 Thanks for the response. There are no markings. I thought it bad because my car will run while moving or warming up, but will not idle. This condition had a sudden onset while driving. However, I just had a friend help me by turning the car on while I listened for a click from the solenoid, and it seems to be engaging. Do you have any ideas of what else could cause those symptoms?

nipper Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Dirt in the carb, time for a rebuild? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngusAmangus Posted April 28, 2016 Author Share Posted April 28, 2016 Do you think that would cause this problem to occur that suddenly? I haven't had any carburetor problems before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEECHBM69 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 You can also gut it (remove the spring and pin) with nominal ill effects. Even if only as a short term measure to determine if that is indeed your issue. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
