Looks like the left front tire held it on and up, up and away. My local dummy reporters. "Guy" wire.

More seat time on the bike @rossiz.

A new cap and button wouldn't be wasted $$. Could be the distributor also. http://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/distributorrebuild/index.html Could be a burnt coil? Does it smell funky or leaking anything,

I did a total rebuild and new starter plus alternator went along with all that. Turn the key and popped the fuse. After a back and fourth with some smarter guys than me I put the old alternator back on. Worked great. Took the new rebuilt one back and it failed their testing. I still have the OE on my 240, brand new rebuild is a dust collector on my shelves of many new rebuilt parts. They suck imho. Luckily they'll work on my d21 pickup.

Cool car though!

They call it "backwards charging" btw.

I bought a bad alternator from Advance and it blew the fuse that runs my gauges. Mine had an internal regulator though and that was what was bad. As soon as I cranked the car my gauges quit working. I'd take the alternator back snd have it tested. The new one they gave I had it tedted before i left their store, failed too. Make sure and have the replacement tested also, they get a bad batch of them I guess so Advance went across the street and got one from autozone that passed their test. Good luck.

He'll buy it buy it back from the insurance company! Win. Win. If not someone should. Carbs and balance tube are works of art heated seats... Just playing Geoff! You and me are happy your kids are okay I know. Cliff

You almost got it!

Yes, glad the kids are okay. Car looks fixable on my monitor but you know better than me. Sorry buddy, you are a true classic kinda guy.

Atlanta in Zup's car?

R180 on the left, R200 on the right. https://www.lainefamily.com/240Z_V8_Conversion-files/240Z_Conversion_Differential_Driveshaft.htm

Everybody I know is going to the tankless instant water heaters. When mine goes bad that's what i'm getting.

That's what she said.

The B type from a 280Z.

That's Honey Boo Boo's car!

The lower geared r180 is square looking. Taller r200 is more rounded. I put a wide 5 speed with the oe r180 and really like it. 70 to 80 mph on the interstate is 2,000 to 2,500 rpms. That's the only time i use fifth. It's like having the oe 4 speed around town. Great looking car btw. Glad you joined the forum. Lots of info and even more nice folks. Cliff

That's Ellie Mays husband. Imagine what Mrs. Drysdale thinks about that yard?

It's a beatiful but quick dance you have to do but so much better than a radiator shops do. I honestly believe the week of natural curing is the best.

File that end off that doesn't go into the hole on the cars side. O into a D and they'll drop in. If I'm thinking what you're saying. If not I'm arse-suming.
