  1. That SEM rust inhibitor works good but it turns blackish after applying.
  2. siteunseen replied to JSM's topic in Help Me !!
    I'll look today. Let you know asap.
  3. Way off, $5,000. Told me where they could buy one for a few thousand. "Here's my phone, call them and I'll buy it today". Then didn't know was it a 2.4, 2.8, Z or ZX. Oh yeah also said no way was the paint original. That's when I quit being polite. its too hot to argue with rednecks.
  4. Burned up some older fuel this morning. Refilled with fresh at a busy gas station/McDonald's and had 3 experts tell me what my car was worth. Small town stuff. Get a quart of oil and a Quarter Pounder in one place. Also free Z appraisals. ? Dicks
  5. Maybe a Flood Car...
  6. Nice! This one qualifies for the "Zs only a mother could love". It also has that "Kardashian Wide Body Kit".
  7. I'm happy for him if that helps. ?
  8. Looks a George Barris car. ?
  9. Distributor advance curves S30-S130.xls Look at this, should help.
  10. I beat you finally CO! My typing is faster versus your flip phone.
  11. My bad! I didn't catch that, I was watching Fast Times and The Breakfast Club...
  12. Nuke it from obit? That's funny Kim Jong.
  13. Spraying carb cleaner on there is also a good way to clean one. I soaked mine in lacquer thinner for a few days then hit it with 120psi air gun. Theeeeeen OCD'd the spray holes with 4 penny finish nail. You should also go with a high flow oil pump from a turbo ZX if you really want to soak the valve train.
  14. Agree with Jonathan, newer is better. I made a mistake above, my '72 came with the Phillips head screw type. It has a newer style that I pulled off a junkyard '75 280Z now. And when you put it back on I would suggest making gaskets for the oiler cam towers. I used some gasket material and tapped it out around the cam tower's opening. I have some old cam towers that I used. @Mark Maras used an old cereal box for his with good results. The ones from the factory are like paper. Another suggestion is to use Loctite thread locker on the small bolts that hold the spray bar on.
  15. Your top one is what's on my 2/72. Bottom is what was on my 9/76. The one with Phillips screws is earlier.
  16. They rerouted that in '78 to keep the oil from stickying up the throttle plate.
  17. You should be able to buy one from a member here. I may have an extra but I'll need to put my hands on it. Two different styles, the early ones have the big phillips head screws. I'm guessing yours does not. Good thing you caught that. Could've been a disaster.
  18. Someone bought one from here not long ago. https://zcarsource.com/distributor-mounting-block
  19. The tool bins behind the seats are the best preserved original paint on mine. Maybe yours are still 918?
  20. '70s cars should wear bellbottoms and stack shoes. Colors should be appropriate also. I like #112 yellow green too. Thanks @Carl Beck http://zhome.com/History/ZColorGallary/index.html
  21. You mean this isn't yours? Or your daughter, my future wife?
  22. No kidding! I have a few baby teeth at my Mom's house she might let me offer.
  23. My something learned today, thanks to @240260280. I can go to bed now. Penultimate... pe·nul·ti·mate /pəˈnəltəmət/ adjective last but one in a series of things; second last. "the penultimate chapter of the book"
