19. What Is The Difference Between A Harley And A Hoover? The Location Of The Dirt Bag. You can only fit one dirt bag on a hoover!! - Jeff

BOING!!! Thats Better than the "BOOBS" one that was on a while ago! If you find more post them! - Jeff

I am in the process of installing fuel injection on my 240z. I took the cylinder head and intake (w/ all the wires) off of a running 280z and transplanted it onto my 240 block. When I am done I will have one high revving 2.4L engine w/ the starting and reliability of the fuel injection. I am still in the process of hooking up the wiring harness. I hope to have it running by the end of the month. Any questions that you may have in doing your car i may be able to answer. ( I've been through the hole thing ). - Jeff

WOW - Now thats a "good size schitt" family!!! - Jeff

You could/should use a lead additive if you do noy have hardened valves & valve seats. Otherwise have hardened valves & seats installed. - Jeff

I just put a L28 head on a L24 block - i used the L24 chain & gears. It did'nt seem that there was any differance. I would use what you have. If there is a little differance in length the chain tensioner will adjust for it. -Jeff

Walter Moore - I did find the pressure in my manual today. The pressure should be @ 30 psi at idle - 37 psi at any rpm over idle. Thanks for your reply - - Jeff

Most brands will work fine. - Jeff

Kmack - if i gave you my phone # -- Would you call me from tine to time and straighten out my attitude? Sometimes i act like the other guys that you like to cuss out! the story is great!!! I wish i had the balls to do that to a few people.! - Jeff

I installed a '78 280z fuel injection system on my '72 240. the fuel flow is strong - but seems to be returning to the tank in high volume due to the sound of it re-entering the tank. The engine starts for a moment then dies. I think it is starting for that moment on the cold start injector- but if the fuel pressure regulator is not holding pressure wouldn't it be a reason it would die? Question is: What should the fuel pressure be in the fuel rail? And where is a good place to install a fuel pressure port to check the pressure? Any thoughts would be appreciated. - Jeff

Old rad. caps will get weak - not holding 12-14 psi. That will cause the cap to allow it to "overflow" early. Try the new cap 1st. That should be changed every 3-4 years antway. - Jeff

I just went through it .... on my header though. The thread size for the EGR is metric ( 22x1.5 ) My header had another threaded bung it is also metric ( 20x1.5 ) I hope i helped. -Jeff

Lets see...... At $10.00 each ...... $150.00 ...... aha!!! 2 new tires!! - Jeff

I feel that Alan Pugh has it right! I have taken apart 3 starters to fix this very thing. Clean/smooth out the contact surface and reassemble. Worked all three times for me. - Jeff

2ManyZs - How many issues do you own? -Jeff

BambiKiller240 is right - Instead of the seesaw motion of a internal cam opperation - the OHC provides a "knock em down - let em up" motion, less moving parts - faster valve responce - and better valve timing accuracy. Pull your valve cover off and turn the cam over manualy - it will show you how it all works. -Jeff

I second that! -Jeff

HAHAHA ROF- !!! -Jeff

I found out that both of the taped holes are straight threads- One is M20x1.5 and the other is M22x1.5 Those are fine thread metrics. I went to a local fastener(sp) place and got one of each and a crush washer for each. ( crush washers are also found on a spark plug ) I've cranked them tight but will not be starting the car untill the middle of next month - I'll let you know how it works. - Jeff

My wife thinks my endevors to complete this car is a "money pit with no bottom". But in truth it will be on the road in the spring with new paint!! -Jeff

Zvoiture Are you asking or hinting?? -Jeff

Whatever it is out of - it has a lot of smog control. I see an IAC ( or BBCD ), intake & exhaust manifolds, pcv, cruse control, and some vacuum lines. - But I only know about the L24,L26 & L28 motors. - Jeff

Victor is probably right - I did mine last winter in the unheaded garage. Used the hand chisel method - It would start to peel a little then break off - It went amazingly quick. - Jeff
