hey guy i am new to the older z world and need some help. I have a 72 240z and the rear turn signals are not working now. I changed the flasher on the drivers side under the dash and i have checked the fuses that are under the choke and they are fine. when i use my hazards they work but when i turn the right or left signal lights on the brake light goes out but nothing in the back is blinking the front works fine. i saw in other post that the turn signal switch could be bent if the lights dont work on one side but i dont get why both are out. can anyone help ?

So I was changing my struts, and a friend who also owns a z was helping me and noticed I have an l28 in my 73, but with carbs, not fuel injection .

Even before the messing with the throttle linkage, the car took awhile to turn on, and s…

I am ready to install lighter, hazard switch and glove box lock in my new dash and don't want to screw it up. What is the best method for cutting those holes. There doesn't seem to be any bezels so it seems the fit needs to be tight and smooth. Any suggestions?

Can anyone recommend someone that can do some restoration work for me. The body has some small rust spots to be repaired, door lower edges are rusted, some rust on edges of fenders, and the entire car has to be repainted. I need a neat shop, within say, 20miles of Bristol, CT... Stan sekjr@juno.com

On the way home 7 miles total, my Z shut off going around 40mph two times> After coasting over to the side of the road it would immediatly start right up like there was no problem. Needless to say I can't get it to do this in my garage. Any ideas.... its almost like some gremlin turns the key off. Thanks for any replys.

I have installed new valve guides in the head and now the valves won't fit through them. They fit before they were installed. Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi all, Here's my predicament: I'm still going through the fuel/intake system of my '78 Z to get everything running right, but I have quite a few items to go. It seems everytime I replace or clean up a connection, the engine runs differently -- sometimes better, sometimes worse -- sometimes richer, sometimes leaner. (Sounds like marriage vows.) I'm now at a point where the engine runs great on startup, but it gets rough when it warms up. The exhaust is sooty, the plugs are all equally sooty (and not oily). The exhaust blows pretty hard in forceful puffs. I wanted to verify that the engine needed a leaner mixture to run better, so I cracked the oil filler cap to in…
