You read right.  My U20 is now a U10.

After being stuck in night-time traffic going up a really steap hill in San Francisco for about 5 minutes, my reliable U20 turned into a U10. (Gay pride weekend made traffic horrible, but very enthusiastic about the Datsun) In case you were ever wondering how your Datsun would run on 1 or 2 cylinders -- the engine noise is a lot higher, and getting up things like parking ramps, or going over 35 miles an hour is more difficult.

But before I started any serious wrenching I thought I'd check with the group wisdom on how to trouble shout this. I have SU's, Electronic Dizzy.  My thought was that one of the SU's must have jammed or gotten stuck. Also, my SU's run a little rich, so I'm not ruling out a fowling.
