Engine only runs with starter fluid
Front carb. #19 is what I'm talking about. Tighten it all the way up, then go counter clockwise 2.5 turns for a general setting. There's TONs of stuff on here about these carburetor. I think it may have it's own sub-forum? It does, http://www.classiczcars.com/forum/71-carburetor-central/ Whoops, I see your in the forum now.

Engine only runs with starter fluid
The nozzles maybe too high. Turn the adjustment knob counter clockwise 2.5 turns from the top. They could be stuck, do the nozzles move down when you pull the choke? They're under the carbs. The hose from the bottom of the float chamber connects to the nozzles on the bottom of the carb bodies. Sorry I can't show you pics now, on my dumb phone.

Well I learned something new today, thanks Zed Head. Oregon and New Jersey won't let you pump your own gas, for your safety, but you can buy a gun and go shoot up a school full of innocent people.- My 73 240Z
You may just be on the exhaust stroke. Are the first two cam lobes "noses" at 10 and 2?- Good clutch for aluminium flywheel?
Price and availability of parts is what keeps them in my garage. My Nissan dealership surprises me all the time with parts for my '72 they still keep at their distribution centers. A lot of guys are making a living buying straight from Nissan then reselling for double the cost, using words like NLA, NIB and NOS to make you think they have the ONLY ones left. Thank you google.com!- My winter project: L28 swap into my 240z
Looks good to my eyes, he even chamfered the intake bolt holes. I wonder what the Sharpie marks are for? And I think "do not turn over" is for handling purposes, it would fall off the crate it's sitting on. I think you hit a gold mine with that motor.- Good clutch for aluminium flywheel?
- Wouldn't #2 be TDC?
Setting up my timing components I would think #2 hole would be the middle, not retarded or advanced. What says the crowd?- My winter project: L28 swap into my 240z
Surely to god they ported the cylinder with that cam. That'd be like sucking Jello Pudding through a coffee straw.- Thanksgiving Day - Canada
I think that's Blue in the middle.- My winter project: L28 swap into my 240z
I've read the N36s use a thinner spacer. If you can't find the 260 spacers you can change to longer studs. FWIW Cliff- 1973 Rebuild
It would've been the windshield that got hit if it were mine.- Good clutch for aluminium flywheel?
It has the removable friction plate but he says he doesn't have to remove it. He's taking the 3 dowels out and resurfacing the whole thing.- Good clutch for aluminium flywheel?
Machinists says the aluminum is in good shape and will work well on such a light car. Looking forward to finding out myself.- My winter project: L28 swap into my 240z
There is a trick to doing it online, can't remember though, I always call. If you sign up for their Zmail you get alerts for free shipping promos. Cliff- My winter project: L28 swap into my 240z
Looks good to me! The cam has had material removed. Glad to see a drilled cam and spray bar, that's what I'm doing too. Hopefully you got to use your CZC member number for a 10 percent discount with MSA.- 280z runs rough and loses power after driving for 10-15 minutes
I think you should clean all your connections and ground points. It's explained here, http://atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/electricalconnections/index.html- My 73 240Z
Good looking car you have, enjoy!- Aluminum clear coat
I'm going to spray something today and put it in a 200 degree oven and see what happens. I'll take some pictures. - Unleaded filler neck add-on(in)
