Ok cool. That rebuild grease is good stuff for every rebuild i believe. We use our own branded stuff (john deere) (which is from who knows where in the world) for all the new engines we build here at work or anything we do partial rebuilds too. Definitely a handy product to have on the shelf. Your injectors should be fine than, its what im using still. Although i had mine tested and cleaned. 2 were dicky but came good after a good clean. The other 2 just needed a clean and check. I wouldnt imagine there would be too much over fueling happening, even though the ecus are very rich in tune.
For it to be a dog when starting from cold, it maybe a sticky idle valve. Now i dont have one on my Z18 and nor have i ever seen one. So im not sure how it would work. Either its an electronically controlled solenoid that opens and closes, or is variable. Or whether its a spring operated system that as the coolant passes the housing it expands the spring, closing the air valve off. Either system can be suffering from a sticky valve. This happens over the years with a build up of crap. So maybe worth while dismantling the unit and cleaning it out and going from there. Also check and clean your water temperature sensor, as this maybe telling the ecu that its colder, or warmer than it really is and its using the wrong section of fuel map.
Timing can also cause issues, as again in relation if there ecu is in the wrong section of fuel map, without the timing to back it up, it could be boggy or hard starting.
You chase your tail a bit but so long as its smooth and providing a smooth power band when warm, the rest doesnt matter all that much. Its just little tweaks over time.
My engine with microtech is a dog when cold, its also got a air leak i think somewhere and the dizzy im sure wasnt helping. Timing and fuel maps arent spot on. Just drive worthy.
Anyways, mine is still a no go. The dizzy was cached, so im in the middle or sourcing replacement parts. But all the places are shut for the break. I need new coil wire for the reluctor/magneto coil as thats got a broken wire and also in need of a new IC module. But as mentioned everywhere that has this stuff is shut for another week. Upgrade of alternator is required, which i have i just have to modify it a little, and of coarse rebuild the dizzy's i have (the original BBs2 one i was using and the spare i had on the shelf - both failed). So a note to all, dont break your datsun down 2 days before christmas. As flat out luck getting spares. lol.
That electronic dizzy you have. Is it a proper L18 electronic dizzy or is it just the same as what i have currently L20 Bluebird S2 electronic dizzy? Im interested if it came at the right price
Can you take a picy of it for me.
Cheers.
Chris.
