Good Day All,
I have a 1976 Datsun B-210. A-14 with an AT. The goal is to lose the point and condenser system and upgrade to EI.
After some checking around, I purchased a D4K Distributor as NAPA stated that it would work in the A-14 Block. I followed the installation instructions.
Essentially the guide said to disconnect the ballast wiring. Add two new wires one for the + and - and run them from the compatible (new) coil for that distributor.
The installation of the distributor was ok. Everything fit and the gears meshed up to the marks I made from the former distributor. I checked TDC and all was well.
Problem: As you turn the ignition key all three normal lights come on at the dash. The starter rolls the motor. The firing sequence starts and the engine sounds good. Then then it just stops. Repeat the turn of the ignition key and it does the same.
The engine does not sustain and run. I am sure the answer is easy but I don't know what it is. Help is greatly appreciated. Electronics is not my strong suit.
