theeoracle Posted June 23, 2015 Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 I have this fork lift and the carb is trash. I was wondering what engine it is. I think it's an A14, If not will this carb still fit. http://tinyurl.com/oyzlv6p. Thanks sorry for the bad pics. and the valve cover says, DATSUN PU. 1 Quote Link to comment
spottedog Posted June 23, 2015 Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 It looks just like the carb on my 1975 b210 A14. Great little pushrod engine, long life and quiet. 1 Quote Link to comment
theeoracle Posted June 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 ok so if i buy this carb it should bolt right up? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1238-BRAND-NEW-CARBURETOR-1972-1982-B210-210-310-ENGINE-A14-16010-W5600-/121338824587?fits=Make%3ANissan&hash=item1c405b878b&vxp=mtr 1 Quote Link to comment
spottedog Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Go to these two ebay sellers, look at the pictures on each one. Notice each carb has a counterweight on the secondary shaft at the base of the carb and other features that match. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NISSAN-FORKLIFT-NIKKI-GAS-CARBURETOR-PARTS-16010-L1100-MODEL-PF02A25V/311069300693?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D31190%26meid%3Dd17be55b365c418b9fbf114778ac3d47%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D320857592591&rt=nchttp://www.ebay.com/itm/1238-BRAND-NEW-CARBURETOR-1972-1982-B210-210-310-ENGINE-A14-16010-W5600-/121338824587?fits=Make%3ANissan&hash=item1c405b878b&vxp=mtr 1 Quote Link to comment
theeoracle Posted June 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 I see the counterweight but they don't look to similar and not willing to shell out $600 for a carb. I just wanna know if this http://tinyurl.com/oyzlv6p will work. 1 Quote Link to comment

Thanks for the help. 1 Quote Link to comment
Chopper Jim Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 Nothing like digging up an old topic. We bought an old FG 103 forklift, good deal. Have the same problem, needs carb & crank pulley. Should have known about the smoking deal. Any help would be appreciated. Didn't know where else to look for help. Thank you Chopper Jim 1 Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted August 8, 2017 Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 You might try bolting up a carb from an early 70's Datsun car or truck. Or even a Weber DGV. I bet the bolt pattern on the manifold is similar to the L series or A series carburetors. I have a mid 80's Mitsubishi forklft that was running like crap and the forklift specific carb was outragously expensive, so I bought a single barrel VW carb (Solex 30 PICT) to make it simpler to work on. Ultimately I didn't end up using it. Instead, I took the stock carb apart and modified it internally to work more like a street driven carb, and it works fine. What problem are you actually having? 1 Quote Link to comment
Chopper Jim Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Didn't have an engine or any thing that would have been attached to it. Just ordered a carb for an A12, should be here any time. Hope it works. Pulley is at machine shop for a little work. 1 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 All the datsun powered forklifts I have come across in the US have been J13 or J15 engines. Look under the #3 and 4 spark plug on the block the should be a stamped #. http://datsun1200.com/modules/mediawiki/index.php?title=Engine_ID_Mark Quote Link to comment
Chopper Jim Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 This one is D11, and serial #S60061. Thank you Stoffregen Motorsports & Charlie69. Charlie69 the engine we came up with came from Phoenix, M&M Forklift. Chopper Jim 2 Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 That sounds like it is closer to an E1 to me being it is less than 1200cc. 1 Quote Link to comment

Charlie69 Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 If all you need is a carb then I would put a Weber 32/36 and jet as needed. Find a gasket that fits the intake and this should tell you what you need for an adapter for the Weber. Pierce Manifolds might be able to help Identify the engine and set you up with a carb. 1 Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 All you need to know is the bolt pattern measurements on the carb mounting flange and the engine size (for rough jetting). Quote Link to comment
nl320what Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 For simplicity you could use a new Ford Falcon 1bbl carb, 2 bolt pattern and cheap from RockAuto: VAPEX 1801217R {Click Info Button for Alternate/OEM Part Numbers} InfoFutura; Holley fuel system; 1BBL; Type: H1; Carb Model: 1940; (W/HAND CHOKE); REPLACEMENT (Only 1 Remaining) $175.79 +Core$50.00 $225.79 This would be a start, but its a small CC displacement and is similar to the E/J series and Austin motors... could go propane too but is it worth all the effort?

Chopper Jim Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Thank you all for the help & information Putting engine in, found carb for $79.00 new on ebay. Will be running soon. Just for laughs we painted the engine Chevy orange. Chopper Jim 2 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted September 8, 2017 Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 With the Weber you would have to install wheelie bars! LOL 2 Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted September 8, 2017 Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 Forklifts are front wheel drive...and they already have wheelie bars...up front. Sorry to burst your bubble, Charlie. 2 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted September 8, 2017 Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 I know forklifts are front wheel drive I was joking. Be running forklifts since the 60s, most useful piece of equipment on well site. 2 Quote Link to comment
