I agree with @Namerow this a great, and very useful post. I believe the 7/16-20 SAE threads are for the seatbelts. Possibly to meet North American standards of the time? For the JDM market I wonder if the seatbelts used M12 x 1.25 fasteners? Or was the SAE spec used worldwide?

Bright light and a magnifying glass will tell you a lot. Inside of the cone at the end of the metal line and outside of the cone down the hole. You might see a crack or deformation. You could even polish the surfaces if they look rough. Also polish the surface that the fitting rides on. It needs to be smooth so that the fitting can apply even pressure across the bell shape at the end of the metal tube. Focus on the surfaces that make contact. The threads are only there to apply the force.

Great post. This info really needs to be added to 'Knowledge Base'.

I finally did something with my 260Z today. I replaced the cigarette lighter with a USB port adapter that has 2 Type A ports and one Type C port. If you're interested in doing this, you may want to buy one with an on/off button since the circuit for the lighter is hot all of the time. To match up with the car's wiring, you'll need to attach a male bullet connector to the positive wire and a female spade (6.3mm) to the negative. Installation: Remove the fuse for the lighter. (For 280Z & 260Z) Remove the fuse for the horn so you don't honk the horn while trying to get the horn button off. Remove the steering wheel. Remove the tachometer. This gives you access to the back of the lighter. Remove the retaining nut on the back of the lighter. Disconnect the negative and positive wires. Tip: Slide a pick under the insulation for the negative to break the adhesion. Pull out the lighter and remove the surround. Use a step bit to enlarge the opening to 28mm or 1 1/8 inches. Video below. Once the hole is the correct size, insert the USB adapter and install the retaining nut on the back side. Two tips: 1. Plug a cable in the USB adapter to hold it in place while tightening the retaining nut. 2. I used a 90 degree pick to turn the retaining nut when the dash frame made it where I could no longer turn the retaining nut with my fingers. Connect the positive and negative wires. Replace the tach, steering wheel, and horn button. Replace the fuses. Enlarging the opening: While the adapter has a voltmeter, it is recessed in the lighter opening and blocked by the headlight switch. You could lean over and see it, though, as long as you don't have a cable plugged into the top port.

I would still pull that water pump to see if it has the stamped steel impellers . May have some rusted away or broken as found on some. That would solve most of it if bad. Replace with cast iron type pump.

I ended up taking it to a guy that did the vapor blasting on my valve cover $75 Seemed like a nice guy but the product didn't turn out that amazing. So it's been glued and screwed to the cylinder head now and I'm wondering if anybody knows a compound that I can rub on the aluminum to spruce it up a bit thanks in advance for any tips

Hmmmm... not shown on the fiche and not on my ride.

Thanks...I will need to correct that.

Those are mine too. However, one has to be careful as the application dates ARE NOT fixed in stone. PS I have some NOS early pick-up parts available including an extremely rare factory clock

Your Master Vac appears to have the 74-75 decal. Is this correct for your vehicle? (Photo below from ZStore website.) Keith

What model years / production dates Is this coolant line hose bracket correct? Thanks, Keith
