[Roadsters] the NEVER ENDING story

[Gary Boone]

Linda,
Any module that is a E12-80 will work.  They're all the same regardless
of what model they come from, whether it's a 1979-82 210, 310, 510, 810,
pickup, or 280ZX. (Was there a 610 and 710 too during that time?  )  
Gary

Garry,
Do the 280Zx modules work also? I thought just the B210s
did. Though I guess the part # could be checked for all of its applications.
Re the Taiwainese modules: I would think that if you get a few junkyard spares
that are tested to work they would likely cover you for some time.
I'm waiting
for the GB fuel injection conversion kit to come out. That would be something
I'm glad I got my GB dizzy before the price took off.

Back when I sold these EI dizzies, I
suggested in my instructions that came with 

the dizzy, that the owner search
the salvage yards for a spare module and have 

it tested at the autoparts
store.  Beware that a lot of testers will indicate 

the module is bad when it
is actually good. They're on any Datsun models, years 

1979 thru 1982.  There
are still several 280ZX's in the yards ( I just saw one 

last week in a local
yard with a module on it).   I'd suggest that if the tester 

says it's bad,
install it anyway to prove it.  Then carry the spare.  Beware of 

the module
if it doesn't have on it "E12-80".  Don't buy it, because its likely 

a
Taiwan aftermarket unit and they are less reliable.    



With my fuel
injection conversion, I also converted my ignition  to a flying 

magnet crank
trigger and the ECU is controlling spark advance.  So I gutted my 

EI dizzy
including removing the module.  Pure heresy 

Happy roadstering.
