I am working on a Z24 motor that we have here at my work in a piece of equipment. I am just wondering where i would be able to find a carb rebuild kit for it? I see a lot of people converting to the weber carberators but i see no sense to convert it from a business stand point. Also, does anyone know what the points are to be set at? Thanks guys

You have a Z24 motor using points? How old is it? I thought they all at least had electronic ignition.

yeah i am pretty sure it is points. Im not sure of the year on the motor, someone said an 84 but we don't have access to the paperwork...the motor is installed on a belt loader at an airport. So we are guessing a 1984

pull serial number off engine block and google for site that will tell you the yr it was made. Nissan main site used to have a place to look up vins and block numbers.
