Tips/tricks for removing windshield
Hopefully I won't have a reason to try the wet cotton but I used 1/4" nylon cord and it worked like a champ. I used to break a lot of windows when I was mowing for a living. There were a few nice people that let me do the install myself, learned the rope trick off youtube.com.

Calling all engineers
I took social studies twice but not because I like social studies. I am antisocial like my dog. He don't give a flip.

Thank you! It looks just like that in my google searches. No Z though, I'll have to add that.

The tight fit one is supposedly able to fit in a standard clothes dryer one review I read stated. I hope so. I'll be sure and post MY review in a few days.

I've never seen that on an iroc. All the ones I've been around have a 28 right beside the Z.

Roy's into stump broken horses now but i could find something for you and your camera skills. Skinny jeans...they make the "wheels" look bigger.

I went with the black microfiber one. If I don't like it I'll cover the rarely driven blue 280 and order the BRE. Money's a little tight right now, I'm working on my rental house to make the 20 year old cutie and all her friends comfortable. They have pajama parties every night and I'm hoping to be invited.

What do think about the tight fit black one? Covercraft has it too. Or the BRE? Loose fit flannel like my Dad had on his Corvette. Nice cover.

Rev issue, driving issue
Borrow a vacuum gauge from a local chain store. They make you pay up front but won't charge when you return it. Loaner program they call it but you pay. Should be buy it program.

Look at the rubber on the pedals. Can't hide that wear.

Clutch squeal when running
The squeal goes away when you depress the clutch. Bad throw out bearing. Could be backwards or not pressed on correctly. My 280 whines because my dumb a s s pounded it on the collar myself. 240 is quiet. I paid my machinists $10 to press it on.

Advice for buying
240s, 260s have carbs. 280 are efi. That's a line you need to set. Carbs are best imho but an efi once it's working is trouble free mostly. I like the 280 out your 3 choices. Hold off another month and search everyday then decide. The bad ones will still be available but the good ones get gone quick.

Thanks MrArnett. Reading their website I'm more inclined than before towards the tight fitting indoor fleece cover. Thanks again, can not read enough anout the Z and the goodeaZe that are available. Cliff

78 280z idle problem
Have you looked at the throttle position switch? They cut in around 2,500rpm. Up until then they're on the low side, rpm, contact. Then at 2500 they are on neither for a second. Then they'll click onto wide open. Lots of info on those. Just a bunch of reading. https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-americamovil-us-revc&ei=2moWXf_gLqHm_Qb-3LY4&q=tps+classiczcars.com&oq=tps+classiczcars&gs_l=mobile-gws-wiz-serp.1.0.33i160l2.15674.26999..29083...0.0..0.160.1231.4j7......0....1.........41j33i299j30i10.a2JfS2XZEAA
