Re: North Island Nationals Cruise to Hanmer Springs

Was talking to a couple who are owners of a Motorhome yesterday and their Club / Association gets 50 % of Bluebridge Ferries anytime of the year
Guess they belong to a much larger group that travel daily so its good business for the ferries

Datsun 1200 A12 Rear Gearbox Oil Leak

Have small leak at rear of gearbox where drive shaft goes in
Rear bronze seal has been replaced but as mechanic suggests it is because of age / wear
It appears to be coming down from the driveshaft
Is there away of sleeving drive shaft to overcome this small leak?
Open to suggestions
Cheers

Re: Jessie's 1976 120y

Would hate to think how many hours you have put into this restoration
Guess if a body shop did the work you would be looking at $10,000 by now
Its a credit to you
Hope to see the finished project

Re: Free 91 fuel ... but is it worth it?

In the Datsun use the higher octane fuel
I got 44 miles per gallon from Wellington and return to the Taupo event recently
Use BP or Shell
Keep away from Mobil or Caltex because of the additives

Re: Datsun 1200 A12 discharging water out overlow

Just returned from Taupo Sunday night and the system operated perfectly
Two fellow Datsun owners over the days events in discussion mentioned their cars discharged out the overflow on stopping the engine
This small modification is well worth the effort
