Oh well.. i've got new (seal) and used parts (shaft (parts)) for that…

Listen at 8:25 min. drive a Z !

No one mentions a bad bearing in the end of the gearbox? What happens after the "repair" .. putting in a new oilseal at the end of the trans.. this seal will wear very fast and you'll end up with the same problem.. check if there is any play in your driveshaft that is coming out of the gearbox.. just a mm is enough to break your new seal that the seller now is putting in.. You got a bad leak there and i'm not surprised if you have/had to put half a litre of oil into your gearbox to fill it up. Keeping it topped of is very important.. (after you got the car back from repair check the play by shaking the driveshaft just behind the gearbox.. there shoud be NO play. do this also after a good run-in of the seal, say 100 miles..160 kms..? i bet it will leak again by that time if the bearing is bad..)

Just wanted to remind… in the States there was the Hitachi the Original radio.. in (Most of ) europe there was the CLARION the Original radio in the 240Z ! It had only AM.. 5 pushbuttons.. and a scale with DATSUN and CLARION on it. sold one last year for 300 euro... (to me it's crazy..) He offered it.. and i could'nt resist.. Here in the Netherlands there is almost no station on AM anymore.. to test the radio i had to use a transmitter that covers the entire range. After 40 years it still workt fine. only a new bulb was needed for the scale.

As the disks are the same.. put the left on the right and viseversa.. if you really don't know anymore what to do.. The problem changes.. it's the disk.. Also i want to ad.. the smallest bit of grease on (one of) them can create that problem.

N3300 says.. it's for a 260z? (does it fit a 240z anyway?)

I wonder.. is it possible that you miss these parts? (I've got these for sale..) They are used on some USA 240z cars? this is not a european car part for as far i know.. I've seen them on ebay (feebay) for 100 euro and in bad condition.. these are almost like new, or as they say: in super beautiful and perfect condition...pfff... ( the rubber is after all this time (in storage for more than 25 years..) still soft and in good condition.) (At first i thought it were wrong ordered new parts, but you can see were a nut or bolt has been sitting so they are used i guess but in great condition.) Are these used only on '73 US. cars? Are these those "inserts?

PARTS WANTED, Preferably out of europe... I'm looking for a inner bar and … if it's a perfect one.. a chrome piece (stainless steel..) of the 280zx rear bumper. It has to be the 1979-1981 type. The later one ivé got but that one does not fit directly into the rubber cover.. Also there is a "hight" difference in the bar. (when laying on the hollow side.)

It (The HA-11D) comes close but is not the Original 240z antenna.. Length differs and top... sorry.

I would give that smelly one a good overnight bath, have you got a big bathtubb? ?

I was just busy with a euro version.. here a pic for you.. E88 and E41 balance tube this is from a europe L24 Datsun 240z. The europe balancetube was without all those emission crap..

It has been a long time ago when i saw that stuff.. can't say that it was so thick! At the most a 1/4 inch? (6,35 mm!) You also want to pay the shipping if it has to come out of europe? ?

https://www.totalzparts.com/product/datsun-240z-choke-knob-for-interior-console-1970-1971-nos/ but you want the smaller one? with lefty ear...

Thanks BGM !! ...but the costs from the us to eu is...pfff... does someone out of europe has one? a 3 meterset out of a 280zx dash..??

Yuup! It's a very very RARE part! When i heared that Mike from Wheeler - Dealers gave out $600,00 for a regrind.. this Original part must be worth a lot more.. oh well.. as we say overhere, it does'nt eat bread! (leave it on the shelf.. ? )

Halfway in my 280zx restore i have pic's of my Original 240z slalom camshaft it's new in it's Original box..what's left of it.. haha.. but the part is new! https://www.classiczcars.com/uploads/monthly_2017_05/20170510_102253.jpg.ed3dfa3d7ec0362bbbaac036e06b5996.jpg

bump.. still looking for a clock! or assembly!

Nice car for a few penny"s! was it hot weather? I ones had that problem with low fuel on a hot day, it's getting to hot under the hood and fuel evaporates in your lines on the engine and it stops.. after some cooling you can start it up again.. At low fuel the fuel gets hotter and you end up with to hot fuel.. this is not the case so fast with a full tank.. also has your car the fuel injector cooler, that plastic tunnel thing over the valvecover? that also cools the fuel ..

yeah.. nice car, but the tire guy was (again) deep asleep when he did the rear wheels… ?

Hahaha.. yeah.. money money money… but look at what a new switch today will cost you.. WOWWW! i think you want to invest in low current lights..

Hi, I think adding a big resistor to make the flasher work is not the way to go.. now you can finally unload the switch and you go ad more current to it! Look for another flasher (from a more modern car) that works with those small current lights.. your switches will last a lot longer. ?

He's (C O) restoring a flattop carb ??? (in that pic.) HEY! Nice 260z end muffler.. i've got the 240z middle peace in new condition in storage.. i think it's the : 20050-E4100 also in black! (Nichira made in Japan)

Thanks man, Although i have a lot of parts it's Always possible i need something.. As you may know i'm restoring a 280zx first year in the Netherlands and when that one is ready (next year..) i'm thinking of restoring my 240z for the 2nd time haha after 20 years driving it! Have'nt made a list yet!
