M420, Where/ what kind of shopt did you drop your tank of to get renewed at? I want to get mine cleaned out as well. How much did it cost you to get it serviced? thanks, isaac

I'm having the worst problem with my z. It runs out of fuel when i have a full tank. I just replaced all of the fuel lines in the engine compartment with the correct size ones. I put a brand new kyosan fuel pump on. I put a new fuel filter on, and I'm still only getting about 1.5 psi of fuel pressure on the furthest line on the fuel rail. If i'm not mistaken the fuel pump should put out about 1-4 psi correct? I'm going to replace the fuel lines going into the tank soon. I think those lines are rotted out and the fuel pump is sucking air and not fuel. It's easier to suck air than fuel. Has any one else experienced anything like my dillemma. Running out of fuel under load or just crusing? It will start back up once the fuel builds up again. thanks, isaac

HOlley makes, or made a rebuild kit for these carbs. i'm going to try and order a set from work. I think the kit is for one carb only. But there is one slight hang up. I don't know the exact carb I need the kit for. The kits change when the carbs id's make the transition from HJG46W-7 , to HJG46W-8. I don't want to order the wrong kit. But at only around 15$ a kit, that wouldn't be a big loss. I could probably return it anyhow. Does anyone know the exact carb id for the 71 round tops?

At my work (pep boys) we carry a nice polyuerathane set from energy suspension. Go to your local pep boys and check it out. Ask where the energy suspension display is and look for the little yellow package that has the two boots in it.

Mann you guys are friggin awesome! I love this web site! I'm going to go and try to start it back up. I've been working on my engine at school all day. Grinding valve seats is fun. My high school auto shop is building about 10 chevrolet 350's. It's quite a site to see all the students working on engines the way we do. We are going to start them up some time next week. There are a few with some pretty good parts like 11:1 pistons, Schnider cams (you should see the lobes!), forged cranks. Alot of our parts are from ex race motors. Lots of fun in that class.
