new weber, but what about the oil in the weber ? i must have screwed something up ,thanks

i could be wrong, either tps or coolant temp at autozone

replace, if i remember ,autozone has them like 17 bucks, but look up something for a nissan , miles fox knows which one it is

i finally got around and looked at my 84 brat, marked timming ,set timming, , looked in side weber and the front parts ,looks to have oil down in side , what gives ? still having surging problem , but no back firing , did i mix up a vacuum line causing this? , also would the acell coil cause the surging problem , ?

well this is no crap , do not change your coil to acell , , 2 in pipe from cat back , no big cat, air box cut out, k-n filter , ngk plugs, 8mm wires , , all adds up to good mpg, all this is on my 88 turbo a/t full time 4wd gl-10 wagon , 22-23 mpg city, 24-25 hi way , remember the full time is a 4 speed a/t -
found a pretty nice awd a/t legacy w/ 122,000mi owner says it has a bad noise coming from tranny or drive line , i could not hear it run because there is no key , but owner is looking for key, could this be a bad u- joint in the drive line ? or bad tranny , owner says it will shift ok and drive but just the loud noise , can be had for 300 or cheaper , owner is just about ready to junk it
