What should i replace while the engine is out?
No need to get under the car to find the fuel rail. (see pic) As for a mount, you'll need to make or find some thing. (Here's a pic of the stock Z car electric fuel pump bracket) Insert quotes?

Thanks Mike! Great Idea! I'll file this away for when I can find the bumper I bought 3 years ago! :stupid: I know I still have it, I just can't find it. Grrrr.

Hell, I STILL think it was a successful mission !! Congradulations! They're still trying to convince themselves that it's not real. Sure they'll figure it out "for real" soon, but it 's good to give them a dose of their own crapola. Good one Marc!

advice on adjusting clutch slave cylinder
Clutch Disc 70 - early 74 (incl 2+2) are the same Clutch Disc 75 - 78 (Coupe) are the same (different from others) Clutch Disc 75 - 78 (2+2) are the same (different from others) Pressure Plate 70 - early 74 (incl 2+2) are the same Pressure Plate 75 - 78 (Coupe) are the same (different from others) Pressure Plate 75 - 78 (2+2) are the same (different from others) Release Bearing 70 - 78 (all) are the same Clutch Fork 70 - 72 are the same Clutch Fork 73 - 78 are the same (but different from 70 -72) Clutch Fork Pivot Ball 70 - 71 are the same Clutch Fork Pivot Ball 72 - 78 are the same (different from other) Clutch Master Cylinder 70 - 78 are ALL the same Clutch Slave Cylinder 70 - 72 are the same Clutch Slave Cylinder 73 - 78 are the same (but different from 70-72) Release Bearing Collar 70 - early 74 are the same. **The collar where the Release bearing is mounted is where it gets complicated. I think that has been covered elsewhere in regard to changing from a 4 speed to a 5 speed trans. Basically, you want to use the collar to match the year and model (2+2, or Coupe)of trans/clutch you are using. You might want to do a search for more detail on the Release bearing collar issue if changing from 4 to 5 speed. FUN isn't it! :ogre:

Hadn't crossed my mind either. I emailed the IZCC list and Kim Blough of Idaho Z Car put me on the right trail.

advice on adjusting clutch slave cylinder
On "some" cars you will run out of adjustment at the slave cylinder and still have problems with slippage. In many of these cases the problem stems from the clutch pedal itself. There is a hole in the pedal arm that the clutch master cylinder linkage attaches to with a hardened clevis pin and over the years the clevis wears the round hole in the pedal arm into an oblong shape which causes motion of the pedal to be wasted as the slop in the (now) oblong hole is taken up so that he master cylinder linkage can start operating the hydraulic system to actually create movement of the slave cylinder. Thus the master cylinder doesn't create the full pressure needed to make the slave move the full distance it needs to move the adjustment rod. I experienced this problem after a complete new clutch system (disc, p/p, t.o. bearing, m/c, & slave) installation when I first purchased my present Z, I discovered the oblong hole in the pedal and sent the pedal out, to have a steel bushing with the correct 8mm hole bronze welded into the pedal arm to correct the oblong hole issue. Full movement restored, no problems in 4yrs+.

Actually, from 73 forward the clutch is self adjusting. The clutch fork is different, and the slave cylinder is different for PRE 1973 Z transmissions, than for POST 1972. 70-72 adjustment is a manual process. 73-78 adjustment is automatic Check your FSM's boys & girls

Like most kidnapper's he's not above killing the hostage if he doesn't get what he wants. How much more can it be worth when it's missing rear brakes, and no one even knows if it runs?

Phred, anytime you feel like posting knowledge like this to the Tech Articles section, please consider doing so. Stuff like this can help a lot of people (like me) to make wiser choices and fewer mistakes when considering engine build options. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I hope the test is open book.

How about just posting the file as an attachment? PS, this is for 280Z's, since 240Z's have an AMP guage, not a VOLT guage.

I'm talking about the site not being run EXCLUSIVELY for your pleasure. Interesting how ONE thread out of 90,000 gets your shorts all bunched up. Intolerance is an insidious disease! PS If you wish to continue this, send me a PM, & let's let the thread get back to the eBay ad.
