E16S Hitachi carb service kit (Read 559 times)

[rhymeface]

I'm looking at tidying up the carb on my Sunny but want to make sure I get the right kit - it's an E16S and the carb is the 2 barrel, downdraught version with the electric autochoke.

Could someone help me get it right - is this carb called a DFE2832 and is this the kit for it on page 30 of this PDF (#151072): www.walkerproducts.com/wp-content/catalogs/carburetor/by-model/hitachi.pdf

Found a link on eBay: www.ebay.com/itm/Carburetor-Repair-Kit-Walker-Products-151072-fits-86-87-Nissan-Sentra-1-6L-L4-/112225117857 - says it's only for 86-87 sentras - not sure if the N13 Sentra stopped in the US before the UK.

On related note, I'm looking for a replacement spring for the accelerator pump arm at the back of the carb - anyone know where I might source one? It's this spring here - hooks on to the arm and fits into the back of the carb:



Thanks in advance for any advice offered!

There are some UK spring manufacturers on the internet that will make one up for you. Otherwise, just see if you can get one from a breaker. Have you tried Will (Datman) 01342-321000?

The Sentra they mention would be the B12 which we got in the UK as a saloon and coupe.

If the kit is US-specific it may be that they got a different carb to us? Or the jets could be different due to their emission controls. Are there any markings on the carb to suggest what model it is?

This listing gives a good view of the parts included in a kit for the DFE2832: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1986-88-CARB-KIT-FOR-NISSAN-1-6L-4-CYLINDER-HITACHI-2-BARREL-MODEL-DFE2832-/281555450843

I recently had to get a repair kit for the older Hitachi carb in my 1200. I ended up getting one which was by a company called Meat & Doria, but sadly they don't appear to list one for the N13 with E16S.

This site is useful for getting parts numbers, and checking interchangeability between different markets: nissan4u.com/parts/sunny/el_n13/1988_1/type_24/fuel_and_engine_control/carburetor_carburetor_repair_kit_and_carburetor_throttle_control/illustration_1/

Thanks a lot for this - That last link is proper useful.

I did have a look around for markings on the carb but couldn't see any (if anyone reading this knows where they would be, do pipe up).
