is a fat lady that sings and can work a hoist.

I've taken some pictures to show what he's talking about. That's the cold start injector hanging down in the mouth of the intake manifold. It'd be more like a garden hose sprayer compared to the 6 injectors which would spray a finer mist like a kitchen sink sprayer. The other picture shows how close it is to the mouth of the throttle body and the tendency to flow with gravity down into the air filter which I think would be dangerous for your son to drive. As hot as it is at Road Atlanta this time of year you should just unplug it and tape the connector up real good. When it gets cold in January it might take a couple more seconds to crank. Ahhh January.

I apologize for the glib remark. If your Fuel pressure regulator is bad it would dump fuel through return line to the gas tank, no way it would effect the throttle body. Here's a picture and a source for another. http://www.google.com/imgres?q=280z+cold+start+valve&um=1&hl=en&sa=N&biw=1280&bih=644&tbm=isch&tbnid=zXb1Gi5k31XIXM:&imgrefurl=http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/11-3430&docid=aEzH7nAVAFfe4M&imgurl=http://www.thezstore.com/store/graphics/00000001/large113430.jpg&w=320&h=247&ei=WpIVUJGDIoS08AT164GoAQ&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=818&vpy=149&dur=126&hovh=197&hovw=256&tx=125&ty=93&sig=103913282402571895353&page=1&tbnh=141&tbnw=214&start=0&ndsp=15&ved=1t:429,r:3,s:0,i:84

In a very nice way ZedHead fixed your problem. Google "280z cold start valve" then click images. They're still available too. Use that Google thing again.

As long as it doesn't belong on the crank or flux capcitor I'll be able to sleep tonight.

Isn't it odd when they don't post interior pictures. That's half the car's value.

I've got 2 o rings left over and I'm hoping the small one goes under the oil cap but can't figure out the bigger one. Any ideas? Oh and I'm not using any EGR stuff so could it be part of that? Thanks in advance. It's the Felpro gasket set for '75 to ?

Thanks guys. I'll get them for sure now.

I try and do my work without bothering other people because I'm weird and hate to be bothered myself. So if these bleeders do what they say it would be great for 1 man work. Any personal expirences? I would appreciate your thoughts.

There's your Turdymobile Z, 72 OJ.

"Can't do any harm" is wise.

Doesn't it suck having to work for Z money? You could make gaskets for a living though, those look really good.

So if the bolt is broken at the base wouldn't that allow it to turn or twist slightly? And wouldn't that bind the cam? Or wear out the bearing? I'm just guessing as usual.

I'm about to get these fromDiscount tires http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/findWheelDetail.do?bp=4-114.3&pc=73392&counter=1&wd=16&rw=7

They're a lot easier coming off than back on. Ruined a set of pants and about 1/2 tube of grease under my finger nails. Tommorrow I'll be cleaning tools and enjoying cold beverages. Adieu!

Here's that ACC seller on E-bay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/77-Datsun-280Z-Complete-Carpet-w-Wheelwells-Shock-Cvrs-/200753401329?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2ebdd5cdf1&vxp=mtr

So I should dent this work of art 6 to 1 flower pot I've got? With what? I don't want to break the thermo-coating. I'll put up a picture later.

My 6 to 1 header is hitting ever so slightly on the bell housing. I want to grind away a 1/8th" or less. Is this common or is something wrong?

I live in Alabama, that says enough. Property tax is $500 a year, car tags average $40 a year, gas is $3.09 today, T-Bone steak $4.99 a lb. on sale pretty much every weekend, Bud light $17.99 a case, don't smoke cigarettes, milk is $2.99 a gallon, $.99 for a Bar B-Q sandwich. 280z $arm and a $leg. But damn it's humid.

Like Slim Pickens said in Blazing Saddles "Dang that was close. Almost lost a hundred dollar hand cart".

Take it to auto parts store with a machine shop and see how much. They'll do it right the first time like you would.

I'm trying! I wish I had the economic sense that you and your Canadian brothers have. March on, your doing a great service for others.

A recent study from Environics Analytics WealthScapes examined mean household wealth and found the average Canadian has a higher net worth than the average American: $363,202 compared to $319,970. NBC's Brian Williams reports. This is due largely in part to the practice of Canadian's buying Japanese cars from America and reselling them to Saudi Arabians. Parts of this article have been embellished by the Club member.

I've got another place to hide my money, '77 280Z.

I promise that'll be one of my first post after it is running. Just got the clutch in and re-attached the tranny today so the motor's ready to be dropped in. I still need to solder the new connections for the injectors and cold start before i can crank it. Almost put the header on before mounting the transmission. In my crazy way of re-assembling that would have been a huge mistake because I'm doing it on the floor instead of hanging from a hoist. The bellhouse and transmission is a lot heavier than I thought, so glad I learned from you guys to pull both instead of bench pressing that b***h. Not really the floor but a crate Zedyone showed in his thread. It's taking longer than I thought because it's hotter than I thought it would be in HELL!
