Have you still got your dizzy for sale?

Hi,

I bought the re-co one. Have got two old ones - one with worn bushes and other faults - another from Dennis (Ghostrider) mentioned earlier in this thread (no rotor or cap and vac advance many not work).

Thats okay John I have two already, just thought it would be easier to put a reco one in.

I thought you were looking for an auto dizzy though John, did the manual one work no problems?

It's working fine. (There has been a later problem but not with the dizzy.) 

cheers,

JohnH

Put in my dizzy from a 280zx auto and it works a treat.

Hi,

So manual or auto, 240 or 280 all seem to work. Also, I noticed recently that the Bosch catalog still includes caps and rotor buttons (but not the ECU) for these distributors.

This old list of (US) specs may be a useful reference for someone: http://www.newprotest.org/projects/510/dizzy_specs.htm

Both dizzys I had were from an auto, (280zx and R30) so I'm not sure why the R30 auto doen't work in a manual, I did notice a big difference in the size of the vacuum advance unit though, the 280zx one was much bigger.

      Much less twat-tastic. CF wheels are too garish for civilised use.

      From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)

      In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird

      Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller

      So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
