I guess I've been pretty quiet, and should be a better admin. I joined back when the Internet Z Car Club @Carl Beck mailing list was giving way to forum based websites, and Mike started the CZC. The various Z models through the 300ZX were finding themselves forming separate discussions based on the old IZCC mailing list filters. The IZCC site still has some of the best Z data pulled together in one place, and should be placed in a vault so it never gets lost. 😉We should all be grateful that Carl got many of us together back in the 1990's, and gave us our first place to find friends of common interests. I'd like to thank @Mike for his consistent effort in creating, maintaining and updating this site for almost 30 years behind the scenes for free out of his own pocket, for the love of the Z. We're looking for sponsors.

@Patcon have you had them apart at any point? If so, is it possible you mixed parts? The left and the right have slightly different internal parts. The bolt thing at the left side in this picture is different for the high vs low horn. You may need to have someone hold the horn button down while you slowly turn the screw until it makes some noise. Also, the horns won't work unless you ground them at the mounting tab.

They're less than ten bucks - buy some and let the rest of us know if they can be used with all the original hardware.

@Jeff G 78 Yeah Jeff…..We’ll put up with you even though you no longer own a Z. I guess the old race car finally hit the bone yard. I guess with all the trophies you won, you’ll need a special room in your new home. HAPPY NEW YEAR to a special member! Guy

This club has been a fun ride over the past few decades. We started around 1996 so this means we will be 30 years old this coming year.

Thanks for the help. I have an incomplete version of the 1970 FSM, but I've been through the EE section. It don't think it shows all the condensers. For example, the circuit diagram you posted only showed the condenser mounted on the distributor. They didn't include the one on the coil attached to the positive side (crudely grafted onto the the diagram below): And they didn't show how the tach connects! At least not until 1972, and it was still cryptic then!

CO, the condensor on my coil is connected to the + post along with the B/W wire. Also, a condensor is on my alternator as you pictured.
