It was a lot of work getting the engine back in there, not without issues for sure. Special thanks to my members! Filipe Ribeiro de Abreu Johnny's Auto Repairs Jacob Foster
My cousin got one of these cars for her first vehicle I remember as a kid riding with the sun roof open in the summer listening to def Leppard, mottly Crew, guns n roses . Good times fun little car
I had an 86 Stanza. I believe the choke was coolant operated. Not positive, but I remember years ago reading about it in the service manual. My car had the 2.0, but I believe the concept is the same in your engine.
After so much weight reduction let's make a quarter mile test and challenge all the pulsar drivers out there (of course later the alto and accord drivers, too). I love the 'drag racer' app therefore, but as I don't have a car I use it to wind up my Uber drivers 😁😁
Good old E16 engine. Not powerful but in that light car it doesn't need to be. My 85 Pulsar was generally reliable. The only repeat issues I kept running up against were cracked CV boots (not Nissan's fault since they were sitting in a warehouse for who knows how long with the rubber breaking down with time), two transmission failures (a big deal but the engine was always fine) and the really awful electronic carb. That carburetor was the worst! That was really the big weak point of the E16S. Looks like you guys might be opting to not use the Nissan carb. Good plan of action if so. That's a pretty solid engine though. I got rid of my Puslar at 225,000 miles and the E16 had no issues. Those might just be "grocery getter" cars but for some weird reason they really are fun to drive. Wish Nissan still made something like this.
