I'm guessing that face and moustache were covered with fur.

New owner of '77 280z from Upstate SC
When I went to Nissan to get replacements the parts guy said they quit making the round phillips head, superseded the newer part number. That's how I ended up with hex heads.

Engine only runs with starter fluid
You need to loosen the screws on the dome, get the damper moving freely then tighten them down. That little rubber blob that supposedly lines them up isn't even on mine. Loosen the screws a little. The choke is on when the handle is pulled back towards the rear of the car. When the choke is on the nozzles drop down about an inch.

You should see where they were connected previously, it makes a little kink in the cable where the screw tightens down.

Definitely replace the screws with the newer hex head type. I got mine at my Nissan dealership, you'll see the part number in this thread. S30Driver found some allen head type too, maybe Fastenal would have those?

I got all mine from O'Reillys auto parts. It's one hell of a job, there's information about plugging off the evap tank all together. You'll have to search google and make your own decision. I chose to keep mine but I enjoy working on my Zs and driving my Camry.
- parts interchangeability info somewhere?

Any Harm in Running 2 Fuel Pumps?
You'd could also try what Jeff said and run rubber hoses straight to the carbs instead of the oe fuel rail. Cost maybe $10 for the low pressure fuel hose. I'd definitely get that problem solved before painting your car. Priority planning

Any Harm in Running 2 Fuel Pumps?
I honestly don't see how vapor lock would make your plugs black. Seems to me right the opposite. too much fuel. 5 to 9 psi is too much for SUs. You can buy an adjustable fpr at any parts store. The knob style is what they'll have, 0-10 psi. My Dad bought a Puralator pump and it came with the fpr, $20, for his lawnmower.

Shaking, back and forth motion at 1st and 2nd gear
You're a fine man! Must be a Dad. I'm not if you haven't noticed. My obituary would've read S.A.D.S when I was about 14 or 15. I have great respect for my Dad, I put that poor man through hell. We're best buddies now. 8^)

I think he has a blog or a tips page of his own. He's showed you many times before, most recently the fuel pump info you were pestering everyone about. Think about it for a minute, it'll hit that head soon. "Jarvo 240 tips" google.com

Members Only Buttons and snaps! Styling, what is it good for? Absolutely NOTHING, say it again now I wore chocolate and hiking boots with yellow shoestrings. Looked like a cricket but had a new girl every weekend. It was the 280!!!!- If it looks like a duck...
I have a shoe collection that's dear to me. All the way back to my early years of the seventies. Vanns are my favorite so I call it my "Many Vanns". Get it? "Too mannies" would be best though.- My winter project: L28 swap into my 240z
I'm hoping my aluminum flywheel works okay as in drive able with a stock clutch kit. I read and was suggested to me to go that route. The high dollar Center Force weren't needed for a weekend car. We'll see! - If it looks like a duck...
