They may be rare now or where you are but the Z20 powered A10 4 door hatchback was mads for all of 1980 and half? the '81 model year. As this is actually Sentra and the 'new' Sentra came out Feb '81. I would imagine the A10 was built close to 6 months into the '81 model year.

 

One hundred thousand 4 door hatch and 2door sedans were built in '80. One hundred and twenty-five thousand wagons were also built in '80. I don't have the numbers for the part year '81.

Snag that manual that Flat posted man,,, you can never find as much incredibly detailed information ( about your particular car) at your finger tips..  Yeah you might find some of  it on the internets ,, but you can carry book out and put it on the fender or work table..

\

We try to buy a factory service manual like that for any car we plan to keep.

 

Thank you for the information guys.
I will be getting the weber brand new I'll order it now.

I got the Weber carb yesterday can someone with a service manual pot the pages with removable procedures and pictures if any available cause I have to name these vacuum lines and I don't know what they are.

Please help

 

Kinda doesn't matter, though. The Weber only has one vacuum line. And it goes to the distributor. So...

1995 Tracer seats bolted directly into my '80 A10. The track mounting bolts have a spacing of 15 3/4 (I think - I know the fifteen is correct, not 100% sure about the fraction though) from left to right. after three hours of using a tape measure on every single bucket seat equipped car in a bud's salvage yard I figured out that a spacing of 11-13 inches is the norm. not sure why the A10s are so much wider but 1995 Tracers and Contours will bolt in.

You may have just changed the game for all A10 owners. Good info.

ive got an escort that doesnt rank of cigarettes  :rofl: , okay guys this really pissed me off. i bought a water pump to replace my seized fan clutch, idk why i didnt even bother looking at both clutches before doing this, but the fucking new water pump doesnt have the right clutch to fit my fan and i dont really want to go to an electric fan, so if ANYONE has a water pump with a good clutch, i WILL buy it, no more freebies even though they are nice, Fat510, man i know you gotta have a pump somewhere in that honey pot of parts laying around. the bearings or whatever is in the fan clutch are completley shot and seized for good, i could go for a thinner more modern radiator to fit the electric fan with the new water pump, but i wanna keep the copper and brass radiator for as long as it will last. it pisses me off they dont make a pump with the right clutch for the car.

Don't buy a used water pump, man. If it's the bigger clutch it's the z pump
