  1. I've read that too. Keeps the heat from the exhaust manifold from burning up your oil pan gasket or hardening from constant heat would be more like it.
  2. I've got that whole York system off my '72 in my storage building somewhere. It's raining like a cow pissing on a flat rock now but maybe this Saturday I can look for it? I will let you know ASAP.
  3. I used SEM Rust Inhibitor with good results. It'll turn whatever you put it on black but it will not rust any worse. EDIT: maybe it was "Rust Mort"?
  4. Which rings will you use? I bought Hasting's chrome faced for mine. That was about 2 or 3 years ago, maybe I should check the compression numbers.
  5. Could you get a helper to make it do the grinding thing and then you listen around and see where it is coming from? That's what I would try and you may already have. It could be the water pump impeller rubbing against the front cover. That's pretty common. What about the sound with the clutch engaged/disengaged? Listen around the alternator too. They can make a grinding noise when you rev the motor. It would have that black dust all over it also.
  6. This is the easiest way to see where your fuel levels are in the float chambers. It's simple to do and will get you close enough to know whether you need to go further. The small hose is available at any hardware store or fish aquarium supply business, I think it's 3/16" but it's been awhile since I've done it. I think this was done by @zKars so that's who we say thank you too. If I'm wrong, thank you to whoever did this.
  7. That's some kind of BS website. I couldn't find those float tools on there. The user "Randella" doesn't make them anymore.
  8. He plainly said he sells them on ebay. What do you want to hear? That's the question.
  9. I'm with Steve. If you won't have to get inspections get rid of it. Less cracks to break in the futute.
  10. Are those plastic toggle switches still available from anyone? I've got 2 lights with those broken off, not on either car of course so no biggie just curious.
  11. That was a well spent Benjamin. Looks great!
  12. Weren't those other two somehow connected to the crank sensor on the later ZXs?
  13. Edit: Welp no upload for me. I'll try later. That's what I think too. My cars are all jammed up in the garage presently but here's a couple of pics that show those same holes but the point towards the front lip.
  14. I can't upload images for some reason. Core price for worn out SUs is $200 to Ztherapy. https://www.ztherapy.com/products/masterprices/master_price_list.htm
  15. You have seen the atlanticz write up haven't you? I'm sure you have but I can't remember reading that. I've had two ZX dizzys with ball bearings stuck to the magnetic part. I would make sure those were in place and their plastic holder looked good. I have know idea how many there's supposed to be. For some reason I think I've read 8 in each half?
  16. They look like the inner fenders under those scoop looking things I removed to put on my front air dam. In front of the tire I believe?
  17. The carbs are worth $350. https://orlando.craigslist.org/pts/d/orlando-datsun-240z-l24-engine5spd-trans/7083471590.html
  18. Don't let me down!
  19. That's his "signature" Mr Purcell. I assume it's his car? but nothing to do with yours I'm guessing. I had to look at his profile myself, I was also confused.
