We put on the early electron ignition system. We got it all wired and tried to start it and get it timed. It would barely run. I changed the dist drive (adv & ret) and nothing would make it run. We decided the ECU was bad so we borrowed one from Datsun guy. It still had the wiring harness on it. BINGO! I had the red and the green wires mixed up. I used a drawing for the set-up that had a ECU with a plug-in. The red wire was 'stacked' above the green wire. I assumed the red wire was last. My ECU had the screw-in connectors. Once I changed the wires around the old Z fired right up. I am very close to declaring the restoration complete. I need to install the blue rivots that I lost during the radio wiring screw-up. (Where do those little round plugs go?) I will install the under the engine belly pan, too, and the car is ready! Whooha!

Loren, are you going to bring it down to Eugene so I can see it? Or are you going to be at Canby next month?

I have pre-registered for Canby. It will fun to finally have the car at a show. See you there!
