  1. The drivers side tie rod nut and the threads on the tie rod itself is reverse threads...I learned that one the hard way:stupid:
  2. white smoke = head gasket (most likely) or cracked head or cracked block
  3. sounds like a alternator to me. Take it to auto zone or kragen they will go out to your z and test your system for free. call around first because I have found that not all the stores have this testing equipment.

    here is something I just thought of... do u have the lines connected to the maqster cylinder correctly? The front (closest to the radiator) master outlet goes to the rear brakes and the front brakes should be connected to the oulet on the master cylinder closest to the firewall. In other words front goes to back brakes and rear outlet goes to front brakes.

    baby vice grips.
  7. could be the #1 cylinder and rings are worn...or could be the valves need adjusting. I am thinking if the valves are too tight in # 1 then it could cause low compression in that cylinder, maybe someone else could confirm this.

    I think that's your switch for raising and lowering your power antenna
  9. yes, you must remove all the spark plugs for a accurate test. If not and there is a head gasket leak between cylinders you can get a false reading because the cylinder next to the one being tested with the spark plug left in will compress and show the inaccurate reading. Removing all spark plugs is a must...
