I dont know what is causing the Z to overheat. The radiator is brand new and it has a new thermostat. It is a late 74 260z all stock. any help would be great.

I will try that as right now i am running regular 87 octane in it

could be carbon build up since the engine is completly stock and has never been rebuilt or as far as i know really worked on at all.

When i shut the car off the engine will sound like fuel is still igniting in it. Not sure what the problem is. its a 260z w/ the orginal L26 and 70 round top SU's

yeah i am planning on doing it myself i dont have a problem getting dirty at all and i have plenty of experience working on vehicles having worked on jeep wranglers and piston bully snow cats. and the welder isn't a problem either i work in a ski resort maintenance shop. some pics of what you did would be awesome in helping me out i just need the parts.

i have been having problems with my fuel, temp, and oil pressure gages. they will move back and fourth and then go to the position they are in when the car is off. i have cleaned all of the connectors and all of the grounding points and still cant get them to work any help would be awesome. also on there are those braces that run under the seats and i was wondering if you can buy those anywhere or if i will have to get them out of a parts car cause the PO cut the passenger side one out to install something to run a radio that was installed behind the seat.

i am new here. i have a late 74 260z that i have had for going on 3 years now it was almost perfect when i got it which i was pretty amazed being that was bought in ohio and has always been an ohio car. i am the second owner of it the po added 70-71 SU carbs to it. The body of the car is perfect no rust at all. the only spots that are in need of help are the floor pans and the spare tire well need replaced. I just recently got done putting a new water pump and radiator in the car. Its great all the info i can find on this site i love it.
