I followed your directions from hybridz. 8^) Pretty funny ranting and raving from the famous chest pounder. Thank you!

That won't last long! I'd love to have it but am a few miles away.

Hell yeah. You have the car.

I've deleted the heater core and the carburetor coolant lines, temporarily for the heater core but permanent for the carbbies. Please let me know if I've missed something or screwed up somehow. Thanks, Cliff

I like those!

You're going to leave it that??? An Olympian son? Congratulations! More info. I'll take a guess and say swimming. You're tall and skinny and a speedster too. B^)

Well that's a first. Only 10 likes per day message. I'm happy to hear about your son and the 510s rebirth.

Quick update, FAILED. Another one is on the way. 8^)

So that's something I'll just have to live with I guess, turn the radio up some more. Now that I think about it I couldn't hear it until I had that resonator installed!

I'm going to "throw out" something here. My 280's bearing makes a slight whining noise when I'm in neutral and foot off the pedal so I'm guessing the bearing is slightly touching the fingers of the pressure plate? If I shorten the adjustable rod under the dash wouldn't that take the bearing off the fingers and stop the whining?

No dead horses ever to me. I'll kick something until I starve to death, maybe a Southern thing, hard headed. As for your guessing abilities,

Revisiting an old thread found using the "Search" box, and thanks to Mike for the quality search, this guy says dissolving black plastic with MEK will make a useable paste for console repairs which got me thinking about something that's already made up. So I've been reading about black ABS plastic pipe glue. Has anyone ever used this to repair a cracked console? Mine is cracked where the choke assembly was mounted. Thanks.

All the 20 amps were replaced and are the right length, comparing them to the old ones. I'm glad I changed them out too, there was a 30 in the mix. I haven't changed the 10s yet but after reading what you've posted about the AGCs I'm sure they will be okay. Thank you.

Charles I'm " Jones'n " for some more land like you have. Those happy young'uns you have helping makes work look fun too. I'm jealous!

I was talking with Joseph at the Z Store not too long ago and he said something I've never thought about after seeing a picture I sent him. " Love the Z Garage. We can’t do the ladder-over-the-car thing here in CA for earthquake reasons, lol."

What threw me was that black plastic cage on back. I assume when they rebuild one they have to tear into the rear to replace parts and put that on there to keep the wires from falling out? I thought that was what made it an "internal regulator". Thanks for the all the help, I'm cranking it this morning when all my "good neighbors" go to church. Hoping that I can run it for 20 minutes this time.

What we have here is failure to rebuild. The new alternator is a piece of junk. Put the old one back on, turn the key and everything is fine. Hopefully they'll give me another one? Goodnight John BoyZ!

I found a pre tear down picture and it really is connected to the F post. Maybe @Zs-ondabrain can tell me why. You can see it's to the left of the horizontal part of the T connection.

But I didn't have a problem before putting the new alt. on. The old one that was grounded to F worked fine. I'm getting confused. Let me do some more researching tonight. Thank you Zed Head for helping. We'll figure it out one way or another. Pack of fuses is only three bucks.

The ground wire from the harness goes to the F on the old 240 one.

I was thinking this was external regulator, under my glove box.

Blue has a tech tip about using the zx on his 77 with the same connections. No plug from Dave. I have some reading to do tonight.

Yes it's a reman. I guess I could take both and have them tested? I'll compare part numbers tonight from rockauto and some other stores.

So if put the old one it's gonna blow the ignition fuse again?

I'm talking about the small ones that work for me. Pull the legs of a roach with these.
