I have a 71'240 that I wanted to adjust the valves on .How do I go about doing that, the manual I have doen't have this info.

Do you have a Haynes manual? I think its in there. The FSM is also a worthwhile investment! try the directions from zhome for now: http://www.zhome.com/Care/Valvlash.htm HTH

If you can get a catalog from victoria british, there are a couple of videos in the back of the catalog for $20. the one I have is the general tune up video (there's also a 6 hour video on just su carbs). Anyway this video is a homemade deal but goes over tuning the early z and starts out adjusting the valves. I thought it was worth the $20.

Does anyone still have these videos? I would purchase them from you for a good price. It would be very helpful to me. I am sure they are not available anymore....

I want to learn how to read my valves and adjust them as needed on my 1978 Z car with the stock 5 speed manual transmission.

I have replaced/renewed everything from the inside/outside of gas tank, all the way to the fuel injectors. I replaced fuel pump, damper, elec connections, all fuel hoses, cleaned fuel lines, removed fuel rail, replaced fuel pressure regulator, PCV valve, and all injectors orings and FI hoses, fuel filter...etc

And now I want to learn to do the valve adjustments. Have never opened a valve cover before.
