grannyknot's build car sold. Pretty good money but I thought it would get more. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1972-datsun-240z-342/

In addition to running the nozzles down a little more, maybe try some thicker oil in the dampers. What do you have in there now?

Saw this on marketplace. No idea why he couldn't return them? https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/859135412997201/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_general&referral_story_type=general&tracking={"qid"%3A"-1044793123484703691"%2C"mf_story_key"%3A"8938584548717743279"%2C"top_level_post_id"%3A"8938584548717743279"%2C"commerce_rank_obj"%3A"{\"target_id\"%3A8938584548717743279%2C\"target_type\"%3A6%2C\"primary_position\"%3A162%2C\"ranking_signature\"%3A41188063074766094%2C\"commerce_channel\"%3A501%2C\"value\"%3A0.00017362306366061%2C\"upsell_type\"%3A3523%2C\"candidate_retrieval_source_map\"%3A{\"8687215747976919\"%3A3565}%2C\"grouping_info\"%3Anull}"%2C"lightning_feed_qid"%3A"-1044916749731165527"%2C"lightning_feed_ranking_signature"%3A"41188063074766094"}

Took another look at the carburetors tonight. Neither piston was dropping to a "clunk" in the carb bodies. The needles were touching the nozzles, and that was keeping the pistons from going to their correct locations when doing the "piston drop" test. I was wondering why my idle speed kept moving around! I loosened the nut holding jet bridge and centered it properly on the rear carburetor. Firing it up briefly, the idle is MUCH improved. I will do the same for the front carb and give it another little test drive.

Your comment about wrongess is wrong. WRONG! Just kidding. Actually cgsheen's comment was only partially WRONG!. Disconnecting the condenser is a good idea. The points won't "burn" immediately. And the part about grounding (shorting) is RIGHT also. Commenting about somebody's wrongess almost always goes wrong. Like this post probably will. Right?
