    Also, pulling the rotor is a simple way of disabling the car. Who is going to have a spare rotor when stealing a car?

    So, according to the schedule, you'll be at Barber on the weekend of The Mitty. You should see if your travels can allow you to meet some of the Z guys in the area. I think Geezer & Grannyknot are in Ontario, and I think Black Gold Man is in the Detroit area. Siteunseen is about an hour from Barber. The list of members could be lengthy. Announce your travels on the website. It could be a good way of getting in your Z fix.

    Let me know. By the way, are you going to The Mitty?

    I have plans on Saturday evening with some friends from the Georgia Z Club.

    Do you need me to come pay you a visit, Dean? I think there are some nice roads between you and me.

    Curtis, what gauges do you need? Or are you looking for custom gauges?

    It looks like you have a good starting point and a plan. That's the way to begin a project.
  8. Snow? What's that? I changed the oil in the differential today.
  9. That's what YouTube is for.
  10. The crowd sounded rather sedate. Did they get excited over any other cars up for bid?

    Do you or your friend have a GoPro? I watched video of my car shot from someone with a GoPro and saw how bad of an exhaust leak my car had. I also learned about exactly how bad the body roll was. See for yourself (and put it on 1080p). https://youtu.be/k6xXvITd6Rk longer video https://youtu.be/k6xXvITd6Rk

    I have relied I have relied upon the Internet Wayback Machine for years.
  13. Thank you, Chas. I double-checked the wiring diagram and it agrees with you that the hazard flasher has a blue/white wire. I appreciate the proofing.
  14. Chas, instead of assuming I'm right, point out what the differences are so we can double-check. With as much of an exercise as it is to do this with CAD or Visio, I admire the work done by our engineering and draftsman predecessors.
  15. Okay, all of this talk about color wiring diagrams got me to update my old blog post on the Hazard/Turn Signal/Brake Light circuits. Since several of you are in the mode of error checking, please send some of that love my way and review my drawing for errors. https://fiddlingwithzcars.wordpress.com/2013/01/20/hazard-switch-brake-light-turn-signal-circuit-analysis/ Thanks!

    You are correct. The wiring is different.

  18. True GL4 oil. Not GL5.
  19. If you want to eliminate a fuel issue, check the fuel pressure. Download the fuel injection bible from http://www.xenonS130.com/reference.html, and read through the troubleshooting. Doing proper diagnostics beats the crap out of shotgunning parts.
  20. Provide colors, and you'll get a correct answer. The disconnected device in the second picture is the emergency start button for the seatbelt interlock relay.

    I hear mine.

    I've purchased two sets from Mike @ Banzai. He's a great person to deal with.
  23. Thank all of the knowledgeable people on this site & zcar.com who taught me the proper terms. I've learned a lot by reading posts here and there. Using Google to find what you need is easy after that.
