Thanks I'll be looking it up. They one part the stores can't find. Thanks again mike

Just wondering if anyone would know where I could buy the distributor stator for my 1981 Datsun 210. I found the ignition reluctor but haven't been able to find the Stator any help would be great

Thanks guys for the quick replies, I will go about doing what you described above. Will keep you posted

Got her running fine thanks to the help from the people on here. I let my pops use the car and he ran out of gas, called me and told me that he now can't get it to start after putting plenty of gas in it. just want any suggestions on what the problem could be. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

ggzilla, tried what you said, but still nothing. Absolutely nothing happens when I turn the key to start the car. all the electrical is working. This is what it would do if you tried to start it in one of the gears. I'll keep trying ggzilla

thanks king rat for the great picture and advice. it is the standard automatic. will try and see ifi this

would you guys know where the neutral safety switch is located

yea, I'm trying, if its one thing its another. I'll keep trying but something so simple should be this hard.......... Now all power works but car won't even turn over. what next

I replaced the fusible link the leads to the positive terminal on the battery and now the power works. But when I turned the key to start the car nothing happens. I manually checked the starter and it works fine. Nothing cranks over when I turn the key. Any advice, this is starting to become a real pain....Thanks guys

Thanks for all the advise guys, will be checking the battery and the fusible link.... Will keep you posted on the progress....

have new battery, starter, alternator distributor cap, wires plugs. Car will start with battery charged but won't hold the charge starts running rough and will just die if foot is not on the gas peddle. Nothing electrical works now, headlights, brake lights, blinkers, wipers, ac-heater nada. With battery charged it will start up but will slowly lose voltage on the voltmeter. Then eventually die. Tried everything and can't pin point where the problem is located. All new fuses but nothing electrical works even with a full charged battery with the ignition in the on position. I'm at a standstill and don't want to pay a handful to a tech when it could be something fairly simple. I've had this car for three years and ran like a dream until now. I read a lot of post from people on this site and finally joined knowing someone knows what the problem is. Hope I explained enough and hope to get this fixed as soon as possible......Thanks people!
