Engine Type:
Inline 4-cylinder (typical for Datsun 411)
Displacement Liters:
Likely 1.2L to 1.6L (exact specifications vary by specific 411 variant and market, e.g., 1.2L R, 1.3L J, 1.6L R series engines were used across Datsun models of this era).
Fuel Delivery:
Carbureted (likely single or dual Zenith/Hitachi carburetors). The manual also lists 'Fuel Injection', which might indicate later or specific export market variants or a misunderstanding in the product description for this era.
Horsepower Range:
Approximately 50-75 HP (depending on engine variant and tuning).
Torque Range:
Approximately 60-80 lb-ft (depending on engine variant).
Oil Change:
Typically every 3,000 miles or 3 months (refer to manual for specific engine oil type and capacity).
Tune Up Interval:
Recommended at 12,000-15,000 miles, including spark plugs, points, condenser, and carburetor adjustment.
Engine Oil Viscosity:
Likely SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40, depending on climate. Manual will specify API service classification (e.g., API SA, SB, or SC).
Coolant Type:
Ethylene glycol based antifreeze/coolant mixed with water in a 50/50 ratio. Manual will specify capacity.
Carburetor:
Carburetors can become clogged with age and require cleaning and rebuilding. Vacuum leaks are also common.
Ignition System:
Points and condenser wear, distributor cap and rotor issues, and weak ignition coils are common maintenance items.
Cooling System:
Radiator leaks, thermostat failures, and worn hoses are typical for vehicles of this age.
Brakes:
Brake drums and shoes wear; hydraulic systems (master cylinder, wheel cylinders) can develop leaks. Brake fluid should be flushed periodically.
