Your the "Spoiler" :classic:. I wouldn't have noticed had you not pointed those out! Still can't tell on the rear spoiler but if you say it's plywood it's plywood. Classic Pit Crew thinking.

In 1987 my girlfriend and myself got hit in the drivers door of a '78 I had. After the lady hit us we hit a tree. We had been swimming and still had on wet clothes and were wearing our seat belts. Her window was up and she busted it with the side of her head, sitting so low was what helped. I busted up the console then bent the steering wheel when we hit the tree. Panicked from the blood coming from her head I got her out of the car and sat her down right on top of an ant pile. We always looked back at the ant stings being the worst from that wreck. Pretty safe in the cocoon I think. EDIT; Now that I've been over and under a 240Z I think it'll be the death of me but it's better than riding motorcycles, which I've quit thanks to the Z's.

You sir are a classic, lurking in the shadows at it's very best!

Like some comedian said, be glad your not in an airplane when you hear a bump. Cars you can pull over and fix it with a coat hanger.

Yeah that's a nice car, I really like orange with black interior. I have orange with white. Want to trade? I have a dehumidifier that runs 1.5 hours then off for 1 hour, it's plugged in through a timer, and I empty the gallon? bucket sometimes twice a day and it stays about 65%. A pedestal fan keeps the humid air moving towards the appliance. Welcome to your new favorite web-site.

They want too much info for me and it's in the Old Country so why bother. I like the one Carl Beck has.

You've made my day Mr. Beck, thank You.

Borrow a compression gauge from a local parts store, AutoZone has them. That will tell you if you need a new head gasket.

Here's a good search engine for Craigslist and ebay. It'll give you an idea of pricing too. Datsun on SearchTempest

Sticking a camera under there would give you a look at the filter while the pump is running.

Make sure the arrow on the clear filter coming out of your tank points towards the fuel pump. Silly I know but I bought a 240z and the plastic fuel filter in the engine compartment was backwards, car ran good until it got down to half of a tank then it started acting weak like it was running out of gas. I caught that and it hasn't done it since but I try and keep at least half full anyway; do not need any damn rust! Looks like the top or larger cap goes towards the pump.

That's why everybody here calls them "Blue's Tech Tips", not Atlantic Z's or Zcar's. We all have used them and owe you a big THANK YOU, really we owe you $$$; do you have a paypal account?

I just read if it's not burnt? don't change it, it will cause slippage. Read post 5 & 6 & 10. 280z transmission oil change - Nissan : Datsun ZCar forum :Nissan Z Forum: 240Z to 370Z

Thank you for that, I've got one in my glove box that needs reattaching.

You'll need an Air Flow Meter I would think, I know nothing about MegaSquirt's system.

Salt vs. humidity I suppose.

Does it look like this? Mine had that pink Bondo looking stuff on the terminals too, also without boots.

I made the mistake of bragging to my Dad how good my '77 gas tank refurbish went and wasn't more than $50. Well he brought me a tank from a '55 series 2 Chevrolet truck he's restoring. WOW! That sum beach was rusted. 2 gallons of acid later it looks nice and clean inside. Tomorrow I'll seal it with Red-Kote because I'm about to drink at least a 12 pack then burn a Ribeye. Cheers!

All I've ever seen is his hands in his tech tips, now a face! I'll say it again "Blue's the Man".

You just have to pop the black cover off to get to the spring. Here's something to look at http://atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/afm/index.html Go down half the page and you'll see FINGERING written to the far left and a picture of a left thumb moving the counter weight. LESS FUEL to the left, MORE FUEL to the right.

You mean water? Like in the toilet?

I had a "too much information" moment, sorry, but here I go again! I never slowed down just unzipped and and relieved myself in the empty bottle, don't put it back in your cup holder though or you'll be stopping to vomit.
