RPM is dropping from 1,100 to 600-500
What PSI is the "recently installed Electric Fuel Pump! So this should not be the issue!" set at? You know, the fuel pressure regulators that come with " I want perfect and powerfull flow for my car."

Clutch Replacement Suggestions Please...
I bought the cheapest kit I could at the time, so much money on the rebuild I was tapped out. I've read nothing but positive things about the OE Nissan kit so I put one in my Hardbody pick up and it works great. I pull a trailer with an Exmark mower on it, 1,500 lbs and it's super strong. I have a Findaza? aluminium 225mm that's going in with the wide ratio ZX 5 speed out of a 2+2. Winter's around the corner so all my projects are coming up soon, damn it.

I need an AFM
I know where 5 280s are, an old junkyard, and every one of the AFMs are gone.

I use a Craftsman motorcycle lift for my transmission work. It has 2 flat rubber coated lifting points that the transmission fits right down in between. Another helpful thing I've found is a rubber cap for the transmission so the fluid won't dump out all over you. That one on the shifter ears is for nothing, I put it on before power washing. I used an Exedy clutch kit on mine but will buy a Nissan kit next time.

Is the Maxima flywheel a 225mm, or something better? Just curious.

Well... starting from stock.
That's my #1 tool, a hammer. If it don't work right give it a tap.

91% alcohol from a dollar store or Rosonol Lighter Fluid. Goof Off is mostly lighter fluid, I've met the guy that invented it at a paint and hardware show in Atlanta.

Replacing the old fluid with Red-Line 75/90 made a huge difference in the noise mine made at highway speed. The old fluid was orange, like Sunkist. My Dad said if it wasn't hot it was OK but he was surprised too after the fluid change.

Hello from South Florida!
Oh no, they're not that bad. I had to wait 2 weeks to install my 1st rebuild is what had my blood boiling. They're like the admitting folks in an E.R, we have to deal with them but when it's all done with you're feeling better.

A Crown Vic to a Z? DON'T DO IT.

Hello from South Florida!
I always call and talk to somebody with the name last Sorkin, Alan or John or close to that. I had problems with their online account too. Where you put in your email to look up your account it always comes up with nothing. I've spent at least a grand with them and probably 20 emails back and forth because they don't prepare their shipments for coast to coast shipping, double boxing would've been great. 2 ceramic headers were damaged in shipping. End of rant.

Those pics Galaxybj posted show the "other side of the story". Maybe that's the reason for the URGENCY!!!!!

It'll be close for me. OE bumpers are off and waiting on fiberglass ones to be painted to match the spoilers. Car's running better than ever and has all new brakes, though, so maybe just maybe.

If you won't have a spare car DON'T DO IT. Like Ross says, they're old.

I don't see a fuel filter. There's 3 on my 240. Clogged carburetors cause a rough idle.

He did a complete paint job. Probably had the motor out too. I'm new to the 240s too and will be anxiously watching for your post. You scored, 1970!
