ggzilla Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 If you have marked your bucket "private" then we can't. Just mark it "public". Most of us are using photobucket. Quote Link to comment
Cardinal Grammeter Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 I have all my albums Public and I've tried to find them w/o logging in to PhotoBucket. And I can't find them. My PB ID is "Cardinal Grammeter" and that isn't enough to do it. I would love for someone to tell me how to do this. Everything on PB is Public and I don't mind who looks at my pics. I did read that for Public, PB Search will bring up albums. So maybe if I put my PB ID in the key words, all someone would have to do is search for my ID and they'd get everything? Is that the way to do it? But I don't have pics out there yet. I just cleared/cleaned up my car port so tomorrow (Sunday) I'll be getting my 620 positioned for work! Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Photobucket search never worked for me. I organize my uploads into albums and login to look for them. Quote Link to comment
Cardinal Grammeter Posted April 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Anyone know datquickdatfastdatsun? He had a few things I needed but lately he has been silent. In particular a carb. Quote Link to comment

Cardinal Grammeter Posted July 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 STATUS UPDATE: Been off in WELDING LAND and finally got a DCH-340 and started to put it on. I was surprised how the "washer clamp" was hold the 1-bbl carb flange down. It turns out there was some "good engineering" doing this (!) The washer was actually on one of the manifold studs. But since the washer was clamping the flange one one side, the washer would be severely tilted. So they used a balancing "jack nut" on the otherside! Yes, that nut on the other side of the wash is just trapped there to keep the washer level under load! So instead of giving them an F grade, I'll give them a D+ for that insight and solution. _____________________ And YES, being the Cheap Skate I am, I peeled off the 2 poorly hand made gaskets from the plywood, trimmed them properly, coated them with wheel bearing grease that had lots of fiber content, and am using them!

scooter Posted July 23, 2014 Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Thats awesome. Hardwood like that purple wood works good, basically dense hardwood. You can go a step further and coat them in epoxy. Mdf works but you gotta paint it with epoxy too. Lots of companies make spacers out of phenolic which works very well. That looks like something id make after 15 beer trying to make the thing run with what i had lol. Quote Link to comment
Cardinal Grammeter Posted July 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Yeah, that is the other question. If this guy was 50 miles from the nearest hardware store, you can't waste time. So you do with what you have. Maybe he needed to drive it too. But it begs the question: What happened to the OE carb? Anyway, this DCH that I got looks pretty good and could see 80% of the ink stamp so I'm hoping it will work as is. THat would be nice. Quote Link to comment
floyd17 Posted July 23, 2014 Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 check junkyard for webers. saw one on a 720 once. and if you cant afford to buy a spacer, just do what some of these guys did with hardwoods and such. thats actually a really smart idea... Quote Link to comment
Cardinal Grammeter Posted July 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Oh, I have nothing against wood spacers - even if lowly plywood. But I think they cut the wood with a hatchet and pounded the holes in with a hammer and screwdriver. I'm near Pittsburgh and 620 and 720's have long since oxidized back to their original iron ore.

JoeCool Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 While looking for an adapter for the Weber I got and rebuilt from the junk yard I came across THIS that might help you out! http://www.webercarbsdirect.com/100_550_p/100.550.htm Quote Link to comment
Cardinal Grammeter Posted July 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 I have to laugh - the biggest reason to keep the Hitachi is so I can have that Baby Blue Air Cleaner looking at me when I open the hood! That color is Iconic as far as Datsun goes - at least to me.... Quote Link to comment
