Don't know about a D or an M on the relay, but this might help. From the 82 FSM:
Or am I out in left field AGAIN?

Gee, I feel all "special" now...hahahhahahah

According to the wiring diagram for the 78, you should have 2 white with black stripe wires and 2 green wires. The two white with black stripes are for the Neutral and Park switch and the two are green ones for the reverse lights. The bullet connectors only go one way. You cannot hook them up incorrectly. Males go to females and females go to males.

Too bad you ran out of bandwidth!...time to upgrade.

Varying the speeds on the interstate just keeps things from getting locked into place, things like the gas pedal, and your right foot (some cars don't have cruise control) and also relieves fatigue (the human kind). It has no real effect on much of anything performancewise, just keeps the trip from being so monotinous...those Texas and New Mexico deserts can be mentally challenging after a few hours.

It's NOT stupid, it's doable, if you know how to maintain your car! Car had 198,000 miles on it.
Oak Harbor, WA, just north of Seattle, to Philiadelphia, PA via San Diego, New Orleans & Atlanta... 1974 Datsun 260Z, December 2, to December 6, 1982...pulling a motorcycle trailer with a bike on it....next?
Advice: Take your time, don't play speed racer, vary the speeds on the interstates and change your oil and filter before the trip and after.

Dale,
I sure hope so, if I can quit being sidetracked by other stuff, it shouldn't be a problem. I'd like to get it ready in the next few days to be able to make a few shakedown runs with the new tranny & shifter arrangement. Between work and other projects, I'm about tapped out for time, but I'm gonna have to make some time to get the car done, that's all there is to it.

Congrats Dale,
I'm about to be in the same boat, only the exhaust & driveshaft loop left to do...and don't EVEN remind me about the "while I'm at it" stuff. This whole project turned out to be one big one.

I knew there had been a few on the circuits, but could never find much information on them.

Welcome to March 2003 ... like a flashback or something... http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=109632
Good work.

Looks like he needs to do something about that camber...those tires won't last long like that.

No need to break into the car to get the code...it's stamped into the housing of the passenger door lock. Remove the panel, and the lock, then read the code. Take that to your local automotive locksmith and have him make a key for you. BINGO. Done.

Check with your local Nissan dealer...Those parts were recently still available NEW, but bring about $75 with you.
-
If you rent the truck, get one with either a lift or a ramp. Buy or rent a furniture moving dolley like this:
Click here to get one cheap. Strap the engine to the dolley and bingo...no lifting involved after it's loaded with the hoist. Next? -

Contact info is on his website...he'd probably not want to travel clear across the country to attend the DNI Shootout, but it would be cool.

And everybody thought that "PC" stood for "Personal Computer"...in reality it stands for "Procrastination Center".
I am guilty as well, here lately, I'm spending approximately 6 to 8 hours a day, sometimes more, online, chatting, surfing, researching, etc... It's ridiculous to think of how much time I've wasted. Oh well...at least I'm not the only one.

Remember, AUTOMOTIVE LOCKSMITH...not just any shop does automotive work...most don't.

Yes, they are still available. An automotive locksmith will either have them in stock, or know where to buy them. I'm not trying to make this difficult, but most locksmith supply shops won't sell to the general public. There is a guy on Zcar.com called "ZmanofWashington" that rebuilds them if you send them to him. He's somewhere near seattle if I recall. His prices are a little high, but that's just MY opinion.
I gave up on rebuilding them simply because most of the time when someone would send them to me, they were JUNK, with broken tailpiece retainer parts or just plain worn out, or corroded so bad that bead-blasting them doesn't even help. New locks are too cheap to buy (for the locksmith) to even worry about the old junk. They can be keyed to an existing key and match whatever other locks are on the car.

Find another locksmith, preferrably one that does automotive work. They'll have the new caps for the locks, as the old ones almost have to be destroyed to get them off. (Don't ask me how I know.)
-
Now you have to get that double car enclosed car hauler and tow vehicle to get them both to the DNI Shootout... (as if, right?)
Congrats.
