Light flywheel
OK, sounds like a good start...

Light flywheel
Well.. It's spring time, the Z will be out in 3 weeks.. I have an intriguing noise... on start-up. The previous owner installed a racing flywheel with an integrated ring gear.. But the starter and that flywheel do not match perfectly well.. so the noise is bad...kinda of a horrfic grinding noise:finger: I'm confronted with 2 options..to drop the transmission and fix the problem... 1. Buy a new race flywheel... but that will not solve the bad matching starter-flywheel (and that part is pricey...) 2. Put back the OE flywheel (that I can have polished and lighten up at a machine shop), and put a new ring gear solving my awful noise on start-up... What would you do???

Gas/Amp dashboard gauge from a 74
Reason I'm asking, I just got a brand new sending unit from MSA (Same as BEEZEE), same problem with the reading on the dash for the gas.. Full (see the gas in the filler neck), reads only 3/4 of a tank..

Gas/Amp dashboard gauge from a 74
Will that unit work on a 72 240Z?? The reason I'm asking, is the sending unit is supposed to be different on a 74....

Do people notice you in your classic Z on the road?
Well, here in Montreal, I do see a lot of people slowing to have a peak at the car and kids in window's car looking and probably asking their parents : What car is this??? Plus, I do have some nodding from time to time and thumbs up also at traffic lights while waiting.. and people looking at the car like it is a UFO... Problem is most people buy cars to go to point A-B, but want to ride a piece of history... But the best was this... Last week, I went to Charlevoix, near Qc, my home region, and parked the Z in front of Manoir Richelieu (fancy Hotel) next beside 2 Ferraris, an F430 and a 612.. Both owners came to talk to me and told me, once, they were younger, they had each a 240Z... and that was bringing back good memories.. I was so ....thrilled!!

Sending unit..

Sending unit..
Well. I was suspecting my that my sending unit was tired.. full gas tank, could see the gas in the filler neck, gauge was reading slightly above 1/2.. Took the new unit in, damn it.. still not going to full, even if I see the gas in the filler.. The needle in the gauge is still reading 3/4 of a tank... Is it the dashboard gauge who might be faulty???:pirate:

Front shaking in fast turn
Fornt wheel alignment, since we cannot have rear alignment on our 240Z. All the suspension parts were checked, the steering wheel is shaking, not on tight ramps, but on the long smooth curvy ones.. Like I said previously,: Tire balance, wheel bearings, ball joints, tie rod ends, have been replaced less than 2 months.. Tire size is 195/60/14 All of these have been replaced less than a month ago. Wheel bearings also were check, all are ok..
