Datsun 1200 uses a tradition wet-sump oil pan, holding about 2.5 quarts of oil. It is a sheet metal part that plays no structural function. It is a front-sump design.

B210 A14 engines used a mid-sump (center sump) design.

All the A-series pans bolt to all A-series engines. However, A15 oil pans have bulges for the extra crank throw. Using an A14 pan on A15 results in a banging noise.

Pan Styles

There were at least four pans for A-series:

• Front Sump (B10, B110, B310)
• Mid-sump (B210, perhaps A14 only)
• A15 pan with bulges
• FWD A-series, cast aluminum front sump
