[Roadsters] the continuing and still NEVER ENDING story

[dave]

This is most of the cars that it fits.  As Gary said, If it's a Nissan and
says "E12-80", then it's correct.

      200SX	(1979 - 1981)
	210	(1979 - 1982)
	210 DELUXE	(1980 - 1982)
	280ZX	(1979 - 1981)
	280ZX 2+2	(1979 - 1980)
	280ZX 2+2 GL	1981
	310	(1979 - 1981)
	310 GX	(1980 - 1981)
	510	(1979 - 1980)
	620 PICKUP	1979
	720 PICKUP	1980
	810	(1979 - 1981)
	MAXIMA SL	1981

This is the wrong one, from a later ZX with the extra terminals, FI cars I
think.

 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?  )

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.
