240Z New Condenser And Frayed Lead Inside Distributor

[Jords]

Hi All

On the weekend my 240z decided to stop. It started to miss and felt like it was running out of petrol (it wasn't). I called the NRMA and after some investigation he swapped the Condenser with an old model that he had in the truck, cleaned up the points and got me going again. 

 

Is there anything special about the 240z condenser (72 Manual)? Can I just replace it with any old one?

 

Also inside the distributor the cable that goes to the points is a little frayed. I've searched around, any ideas where I could get a replacement?

 

thanks

Jordan

No, nothing special about them.

Head to your local parts store and tell them what it's for.

Also, the tail should come with the points.

BTW, It might be worth doing cap and rotor at the same time.

There are two leads in the distributor...I bought both from my local Nissan dealer recently. I hope this helps
