  1. It's nice to see a young man OUTSIDE.
  2. siteunseen commented on Mike's gallery image in Member Albums
  3. I remember reading that but couldn't remember who. Maybe somebody else too, they were merging into fast flowing traffic and jabbed it with the coolant dead headed. I only had a 280 then but still learned from your mistake. I never understood how but didn't chance it.
  4. You trailer the boat to a KOA? That is awesome!
  5. I see the little man in the reflection off the door, he's liking that! Me too.
  6. Datsun Parts, LLC If you're a gambler you have to "know when to run" zcardepot.com hurt that man! I bet Al buys from zcardepot and resales. He has a rear disc conversion for $200 more than zcardepot, nice finder's fee for the ignorant.
  7. Wishing you all the best Miss Sarah, you've been missed but cars are nothing compared to the horrible C word. Best of luck in your future, the first 5 years especially! Cliff
  8. Learned something new today, thanks Patcon! An off centered part called eccentric, reminds me of myself.
  9. The eccentric is the arm that goes against the off center cup on the cam sprocket bolt, right? I've wondered if that off centered cup came unwelded from the washer would the pump still work? It wouldn't would it? Just curious.
  10. If you have screens on the carbs banjo bolts they may be restricting the flow. Mine never completely fills my glass filter after the pump. Probably not the oe one on the passenger's fender either. You might put a gauge on the end of the supply side coming off the pump and see what it reads? Either turning the motor with the starter or working the arm by hand. You could get a cheap gauge at Lowes in the pool filter section.
  11. Okay, I know why I haven't seen that, never been under that cover thank goodness. They have some zxs and zs out there. Maybe someone can tell us what years have it? We're having some crappy weather this week so it'll give us some time to nail it down before I could get out there. Hopefully I can be some help. Good to hear from you Andrew, hadn't seen too much of your post lately and that's a good thing, no problems.
  12. Where is that located on your car? I've not noticed that on my '77 and wondering what years it comes on. I have access to a few junkyard 280s.
  13. Learned something new, thanks C.Man! I watched a lot of cartoons in the 70s, and remember the shooting star "the more you know".
  14. I drove a svt lightning supercharged f -150. Probably the fastest vehicle I've ever driven. Jeff that head will be shipped tomorrow, I promise! Things keep popping up beyond my control. Excuses suck so please forgive me. Cliff
  15. Throw a bow and some arrows in the hatch! Burt R. driving a Z. Might have to paint a screamin chicken on the hood like the Bandits TA. Da duh ling ling ling ling
  16. My '77 280 has the access cover with the o ring in the hatch, drops in from the top unlike my 240 which goes into the side of the tank. If her o ring has deteriorated it would smell of fuel inside the cabin. Good thought though as those o rings to go bad. I'm curious about the connections at the pump, more so of the high pressure out going hose, as mentioned earlier. If someone put a G3 filter on there a few months ago it could be there too. She needs to have extra set of eyes looking while it's under pressure, a camera would work, in my opinion. Good luck Jai.
  17. Do the tank drains have a copper washer like the oil pan? Could be too tight or not tight enough, like the oil plugs do. Just a thought not knowing where it's coming from.
  18. Welcome aboard! You'll find all the help you want on here. Post some pictures for us, can't see too many Zs!
  19. That's funny, ruined Ned Beatty image though. That's all I think about when I see him, trying to crawl away in his fruit-of-looms. Meth heads suffer from IE, I'd think, so sticking a tootsie roll into a key hole would tough.
  20. What year do you think it is? I love playing with that google street view, it's a pretty darn close picture. I have read they ride around in a van with a 360 degree camera, constantly making pictures, every street. Also looks like a D21 Nissan pickup behind the Z, great little trucks. Mine has over 300,000 miles on it, gas and oil mostly. Had to have a new fuel pump a few years ago, unbolted the bed and bottle jacked the front enough to get to it, easy job.
  21. This is very true. My Rewinds self center when I tighten them down. The slots do not. You must have that heavy washer before the lug. The holes aren't angled in any way and I must put all four on and tighten them in increments to get them hem centered. And the center caps aren't worth a crap, they just pop on and aren't secured by the lugs. I have duct tape on back of at least two for a tight fit. The plastic tangs break off.
  22. I have many different colors on my 918 colored car, my avatar. Black spoilers to match the rocker stripes, gunmetal wheels match the rear finisher. Msa has some satin. black rewinds I wish I had but they didn't have them when I bought my gunmetals, damn it!!! I would buy them but recently quit the easiest job I've ever had. Never work for friends or family, they get the I'm smarter than you or you wouldn't be working here for me, I would be working for you. Which is true but don't throw that in my face more than once asshole. Rant over, thanks!
  23. Those voices have changed my life around! Wouldn't have it any other way. I'm going to build an addition on my garage this spring.
  24. I just googled that "urgelis" and there were negative ebay buyers from '04. What a douchebag with that kind of username, probably has a personalized tag on his car that says the same. Is that a narcissist or what!
  25. That's too funny, we're jealous of that guy. What a joke, should be URNOTBUYINGFROMME
