a6m-zero Posted February 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Well I have an issue that I need to address with the gurus. I have noticed when I turn off the truck it wants to continue to putt and sputter. I have trying to mess with the timing and got it where it needs to be and still no resolve. I have also tried messing with the weber carb and still nothing. Any other thing ps I should try or look at? 1 Quote Link to comment
uberkevin Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 I think they call that 'dieseling' Because of compression ??? Idk But most people just kill the motor slowly as they turn the key off.. Or maybe your timing is off?? 1 Quote Link to comment
a6m-zero Posted February 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 How would I kill it slowly? Haha and the timing is on point I adjusted it and it made no difference 1 Quote Link to comment
uberkevin Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Me! I just put it in first as I'm slowing to park with my hand on the key, foot on the brake and slowly lifting my foot off the clutch and turning the key off at the same time just about... shouldnt lunge forward if you do it right.. 1 Quote Link to comment
a6m-zero Posted February 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Hmmm, there's gotta be some kind of fix haha thanks though! How did those tail lights turn out? 1 Quote Link to comment
uberkevin Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 I'm pretty sure a lot of Datsuns have this problem and lots do what I have said. But there may be another way, also the tail light will be great!... soon. 1 Quote Link to comment
a6m-zero Posted February 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Gotcha gotcha well I guess I may just have to use that as a fix hah 1 Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Forget it, the only way your going to get the engine to die in neutral is to set the engine up so that it will die even when you don't want it to die, and performance will likely suffer, just do what Kevin said, come to a stop, put it in first, put your right foot on the brake, turn the key off and let out the clutch at the same time, I have been doing this for decades as I have dual SUs which don't have a fuel cutoff, and neither does the weber, that is why Nissan put the fuel cutoff in the carburetors, it cannot be fixed. 3 Quote Link to comment
