I've never had that problem before. Actually the fuel rail feels cool to the touch when it's idling, cost $50 to make.

That's the universal FPR I bought only to find out it wouldn't keep the pressure. I almost bought a rising rate Bosch or MSD? like in the picture but tried the coolant temp tweak and it cured my problem. So I just bought a '78 model FPR and put it at the end close to the firewall. EDIT: My problem wasn't hard starting BTW, I had a mid range stumble around 2500 RPM. The higher fuel pressure made it better at the time I was trying to figure out the problem.

If you get bored try pinching off the return line with some needle nose pliers with rubber tubing pieces over the teeth, if you have a healthy Bosch OE pump it will hit 50 psi. Do it quick though or you'll get leaks at that pressure. You may have a slightly clogged filter but those numbers you've posted do not seem bad to me. It should run fine around 30 psi. Have you measured the vacuum at the intake manifold with a vacuum gauge? Auto parts stores will loan you one if they have one, pull off the big line to the brake booster and measure there, should be between 15 and 19 if I remember right and your motor is healthy. Good to hear your progress with this weather we've had.

So that's how you're getting those huge pictures up! I wondered how you did it on the timing chain install thread.

It looks like wood. Try running a sheet rock screw into it and pull it out. Or a decking screw, I always call wide threaded screws sheet rock screws. Use some socket extensions with a 1/4" socket and put a Phillips head driver in it. Then maybe lasso a wire around the screw and pull up?

Best mower ever! That's the only good thing that came from this. Thanks! I thought the same thing! But had I been in the 240 and things went the wrong way, I'd be in jail. I would've drug him out and beat him senseless. When I got to him he was still on the phone! But I think he was talking to Mom & Dad, they showed up in 2 minutes, then I called the Police. So this one little rubber bumper is going to get me a new front bumper, if there's one out there.

I like Clamato better than V8 but to each his own. Check this out, V8 Z Forums - HybridZ

Wile E. Coyote too!

Wow! Touchdown on that ride. Looks to be an original car with dealer add on's, wheels, louvers and the side molding. You've found your new best friends on here, welcome to our club. My Dad did some training at Fort Hood before going for the 90 day war with Iraq back in the early nineties. Thank You for your service.

Kind of like Whitney Houston's bath tub?

I was waiting on a side street to pull out onto a highway and this younger guy drifted out of his lane to the right and clipped my front bumper. His rear right tire tore off 1 of the rubber bumpers on front. Scared the s h i t out of me. Nobody was hurt and it barely hurt my car.

My layman"s terms are just the opposite, 905 is red and 110 is reddish tomato orange. I suddenly want a Bloody Mary with a pickled green bean. I think I'll have one, it's Friday.

Whether it's from getting older or learning to say NO, my anxiety level has dropped like an airplane. In 2014 I want it completely gone, then the beer should follow- hopefully. Happy New Year to all Z Owners.

I've figured out "what's in the back". http://www.coleman.com/product/powerchilltrade-40-quart-thermoelectric-cooler/3000001497?contextCategory=8570#.UsMg4vRDuHw

If you have time, read this tech tip on your "combo Switch". Something might ding a bell in your head. http://www.kamikazeracing.org/dl/ZTech/Rebuild_240Z_combo_switch.pdf And unless this your only night time ride, don't do the tin foil wrapped fuse. You'll end up causing more problems.

Crank your car inside the garage, with the garage door opened a little at least, walk to the front passengers side and grab the fuel line coming from the metal fuel filter. Try and pinch it together. If you can you don't have enough fuel pressure.

You've probably got a loose bulb or wire in one of the fixtures. Take the screws out and remove the lenses for a look.

I used a section of the stiffest welding wire I could find to punch through the tank liner that had hardened up in those.

Hello, my name is John and I have a Z car problem. HELLO JOHN! Where do I leave my sign in card?

Gorilla tape a volt meter to the passenger's side windshield and go for a cruise. Or get 6 ft. of speaker wire, wrap the ends on your battery terminals, run it through the window and tape the ends to a volt meter sitting in the passenger's seat. But don't text and drive!

Anybody in Virginia feeling the Christmas spirit still? Loan this man an AFM.

Buy a shipping container, park your car in the living room.

Where you bought the paint or any other paint supply that has the brand you have. Different manufacturers use different tint colors. Get a 1/4 of the formula added to what you have, if you want it more distinct add another 1/4. Don't use all your leftover paint, you'll need it for touch ups. Maybe a pint would be enough?

Could the timing be off? Can you have someone cranking while you move the distributor around? Are the wires in the right order, 153624? https://www.google.com/search?q=280z+firing+order&rlz=1C1BOFA_enUS494US494&espv=210&es_sm=93&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=qb26UtqUFo6SkQeY4YHoBA&ved=0CCsQsAQ&biw=1280&bih=619#imgdii=_
