I still haven't done that but think it's a good idea. If you have one could you post a photo for us to go by? seems like you've already done it for me or maybe it was just the picture of the on/off valve. Thanks Captain.

Yes sir your right. When I washed my tank out and coated it with RedKote i was worried that stuff could come loose and clog up my system. I ran it for about 6 months with nary a bit of pinkish colored fuel. It's gone now. G-3 at the tank and OE filter under the hood is it. Thanks for mentioning that, I run one on my 240 so I bought a pack of filter screens and need to swap a newer one in. I read when they get a greenish color the screens need replacing. Cliff

I kept the AAR. EGR, BPT and the warming plate with the thermal switch were trashed. I plugged the coolant lines to the warming plate and the hose on bottom of the throttle body that went to the BPT. I'm pretty sure that's all I had to do. You might be able to see in this picture?

Liquor.

Me either!

You have me working on mine again! It was my first learning project, lots of mistakes like every nut and bolt up top have rusted. I wire wheeled them all to shine like new but didn't protect them.

Here you go. https://www.datsun-240z-upgrades.net/

That was one of the first, and many, dumb headed moves I made before finding you guys on classiczcars.com. I took a Sawzall and cut that off thinking I could get it welded back up, nope. Lucky to find another from a guy cleaning out his "pile" in Chicago, $50.

Finally replaced drivers rear wheel cylinder on my 280. Hasn't been out of the garage in a year at least. Took around the neighborhood for testing. No leaks and a nice pedal. $10 to my mailbox from rockauto, Centric brand. Happy, happy!

Love Devo! Oingo Boingo, The Cramps... Then I heard Stevie Ray Vaughn, forever changed. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EAzAucMOE0s

I found that swapping the hardlines from one side to the other lessened the bending for me. Never thought about looking for adaptable hardlines. Thanks Guy, I'll remember that for any future assist.

The turbos have their own ecu. Stock FI is different. That dizzy spindle probably won't need replacing, people throw parts at an unknown problem. We can put on the right line up for the oil pump and dizzy shaft, 11:30 looking at a clock but there's a fat side also. I run turbo oiled pumps in mine it's a common upgrade. Soooo is it turbo or just the block and head? I'd look and see if it has dished pistons like the turbos. See what number you can find on the intake manifold. N42 would be best, non egr. Still on ky dumb phone and unable to post decent reference photos.

$500 is a win win. If you want to get out of the house then heck yeah it's worth the challenge. I've deleted the EGR crap off my '77 so maybe I can help with that. There's some other members with MS system that could help. Personally I'd rip all that stuff off and put carbs on there. Lot's of info on that. Recent thread actually and I have one saved on my laptop I can post when I'm not using this dumb phone.

Sounds fun! We like challenges. You'll get plenty of help here. Cliff

If you have a new cap and button, put them on. I think you possible might not have a good CLICK when the wire meets the plug. Also make sure the tip is tight. I put dialectic grease on mine. Good luck. Thats odd it burned so clean last week and now too look so sooty. Like Mark has said many times you should try swapping the wire to #4

I know he has the Nissan preshaped J hoses from ztherapy. My 918 car had some hack arse 1/4" fuel line instead and that doesn't work very well at all.

My Mom fell in love with my Dad's car then married him, had me and divorced when I was 3. So I'd have to go with worse for my situation.

In the "Just SUs" DVD Steve, I think?, bends that arm that connects the nozzle to the linkage to free up the nozzle. I had to do that to that red 240 I had. Somehow it had gotten bent and was causing a bind. Just an FYI Jalex, hopefully you won't have to do that. ?

I mostly copy and paste without any problems??? Cool movie too, Captain.

I'm driving my Camry and would be more than happy to shuttle you guys from Hartsfield. A fore warning though, getting out of there takes longer than the flight. I'm hoping some of y'all will arrive at close times and get a shuttle or double up on cab fare. The airport is a good ways away from the hotel. We have just begun the fun part, planning! I can't wait and desperately need a few days days with like thinking friends. I am surrounded by idyuts.

We have a lot of bleached blonds in Alabama. Wait a minute, your talking about the rear finisher! Mines more a faded Shinola shoe polish black. Like the tv commercials lawyers hair.

I've wondered about Mike's cost on storage. I have a ton of attachments I could delete to free up some space on his forum.

I've tried, believe me. I can't pick anything out. It looks like a good solid car if you want to pay close to $50K. Decisions, decisions... Good luck if you decide but I would definitely try low balling the price.

Mine shows "choose files" on google chrome ?

That Lexus is beautiful! Love that car.
