That's funny. Looks to be a great car you've bought. I have those same floor mats in mine.

If someone who has purchased the 240 ones recently could tell me of the fit and finish of what they have now, I'd appreciate it. I can only find comments, which weren't too good, from 5 years ago. Hopefully they have improved. I've found some at ztrix.com but they don't have the bracket landings glassed in, you have to run bolts through them to attach. He makes them for racers. I want the smooth finish like MSA's. Thank you for any response, Cliff

Looks good to me, especially the motor. Look between the front 2 spark plugs to see which cylinder head you have, some numbers cast into the aluminum, then look on the drivers side bottom of the block to find which block you have.

Just do it on an empty stomach, HaHa. I jacked mine up, removed the tire and put a smaller bottle jack under the A arm to get mine loose. I found it easier getting behind the rotor for those 2 bolts.

They put pee pee in our Coke and thought it was funny.

I think LeonV hit the nail head. https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&rlz=1C1BOFA_enUS494US494&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=testing%20a%20brake%20booster But Mr Warner makes a good catch also, inlet and outlet hoses reversed. Here's a picture of mine for reference.

That red goo looks like a half done Red Kote tank lining. Reads like the PO dropped the tank to seal it and saw what a PITA it is and slapped it all back on too quick. That stuff takes at least a week to cure. I don't think he waited and got in a hurry with the hoses too, maybe his daily driver? I would check the fuel hardlines from the tank to the engine bay with an air gun to see if you have blockage there from the uncured Red Kote. Here's a picture of mine after lining it, looks very similar in color.

Yes, welcome to the club. I have a '77 also and the best information I've gotten is from a fellow member Blue. His first Z was a '77 and he has done everything imaginable to his and shared it with all of us, great pictures too.

That's a nice looking car! I had a friend that had a black Z with white interior, and he kept it super clean just like you're doing. Welcome aboard and more pictures, please.

The bolt pattern is 4-114.30 with 195/70-14 tire size. You might could find some on e-bay? or call Direct Tire or Tire Rack. Seems like I've read an older Altima's spare fits our cars.

Hard to beat a Nissan that's for sure! I've never heard anybody complain about theirs if they've taken halfway decent care of it. Hard to beat that leaf blower in the bed of that Hardbody too, Stihl BR600. It has a SUMMER/WINTER flap just like our 240s.

I went and looked at one I just took off. It looks like it was stamped on originally. If you need any more pictures, let me know.

Looks like the bolt to me. Maybe it's just loose? maybe my eyes are going bad? (most likely the latter)

Happy Thanksgiving to the Pilgrims.

I found the least expensive price for Red Line at amazon.com.

My MaMaw used to pump the gas pedal in her Cadillac about 10 times before turning the key. My Dad said she was nuts but that Batmobile always cranked right up. Maybe that's where the term "double pumper" comes from? :bulb:

We have a satellite U.D.S.T school down here. I put my pistons in the block 3 times. Notch forward, dimple up, gap at 10 2 and 4 etc. I used my PHD Saturday planting some Knockout Roses for a neighbor. She paid me back.

He has worked for the same dealership for 40 years cleaning up trade ins. Him, my Dad and the guy that owns the dealership grew up fooling with cars together.

On our carbureted motors with a mechanical fuel pump there's an off center cup looking thing on the cam's nose in front of the timing sprocket that moves the pump's arm every time the cam turns. Ehh here's something I found on google, How A Fuel Pump Works

Bump starter, especially for adjusting the valves. $15 at Auto Zone.

That's the way I learned without a light. Get it real quiet then back it up a tad. Good luck!
