    It's an RB30.

    But, I believe TB or TD carby engines might have come with the same carby.

    Can you help with this manual, mate?!

    I'm happy to buy or pay somebody if necessary.
    But, don't even have a clue about the name of the manual.

    I'm after all the information about the carby part and the vacuum line part of this manual.

    I'm hoping to know it back to front as it's been driving me crazy lately with multiple problems.

    EFI conversion is not an immediate option for me, but will be eventually.

    Thanks mate
    Nothing wrong with rb30s mate, they go hard. The carby is different from a TB engine and the TD engines are diesel so no carb.
    There are heaps of aftermarket bits for the rb30 engines as they are found in skylines and vl Commodore and are very popular performance engines.

    Hey mate a quick google for that byline and I found something on an RX7 forum about Nikki Carbs. Looks like a great 97 pages on this Brand carb, maybe not this exact unit but you should find its very very similar.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Now you know why i'm after a repair manual. )
    Right, I remember reading about them in an early Haines edition for Fred and Barny's car.

    Thanks mate. Yes, I caught up with George over the weekend. He had a quick look and gave me some valuable tips.
    I'm about to open up the carby again and do it all over as I made few monumental mistakes(using silicone to settle the gaskets, possible misfitting of internal springs, not doing the jets, etc). Have to stuff up few things to learn, ha?!
    I think once I've done that and fit it back, will give George a call and see if he could give me few more tips to get it right.

    Great manual mate. I downloaded it as a pdf. Now it's reading time. Pray for me.

    The RB30 & TB42 carbys are simlar (they both use the same carby kit) Whne I rebuilt my TB42 I had an old rb30 carby that I used as a comparison.

    Yes mate. That's what I thought. The above three pages from TB42 carby, but very similar to my RB30 carby. I think the best thing for is to get hold of an RB30 carby. Anybody with an RB30 carby outhere?!

    If it helps anyone i just pulled my rb30s carb completely to bits, gave all the jets and hoses a good spray with carby clean and a blow out with the air compressor. I concluded the needle and seat in these carbies are just about indestructable the needle is more ball bearing design instead of a pointed tip which increases its durability. I thought my performance issues was carby related and considered replacing needle and seat until I noticed the durable design and left them be.

    The carby clean and reset floats stoped the pop/crackle through exhaust when going down gears. Apart from this and smoother acceleration no other changes notice in performamce.
