This is a follow-up on a previous post. Occasionally the car will not start, nothing. Like the battery has been disconnected. One sympton is loss of preset radio stations. Tracked it to the vr by tapping on it the last time it happened. Started right up. Now, is this a fatal sign with the vr and should I replace it? Can they be adjusted, etc.? Are the points sticking?

I have run into a problem with the headlight switch fitted to my 6/73 240z. When the switch is actuated to position 1 the parkers and tail light illuminate, moving up to position 2, all existing lights are still illuminated, no low or high beam, no power to the fuse for the low and high beam lights either. Does anyone have a fix for this problem. please help Steve :cry:

Hi! this is my first time here, and I can't say how great it is to have found this site!! I just bought a '72 240z last sat. Everything seems to be in order except for the fuse box. the fuse holder slot that deals with my dashlights and rear lights keeps slipping loose. The whole box needs to be replaced, actually, and I am having the hardest time locating a new fuse box. The Nissan dealership told me I was up a creek as they didnt manufacture them anymore. I am in so.cal and all the z cars in the strip yards have been parted out as far as fuseboxes go..... Does anyone know of how to go about locating one somewhere else in the state or country? Does ebay have things like…

Please Help!!! I own a 1972 240Z...The problem is that whenever I put the car in drive I am loosing power. To adjust for this I changed the fuel filter and adjusted the idle. Same result. I was driving along and then....loosing power until the car eventually died. The car does start back up when it dies...however, when I put it in drive the engine dies. Any suggestions. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi guys, I dont know what my problem is but i was hoping you guys can tell me. my voltage meter isnt very steady and goes up and down alot. There were a few times where my car didnt even crank. when i turn the key to the on position, the voltage meter went all the way down. but then i checked my battery clamps and they were kinda lose then i tightened them and i haven had the starting problem yet. Im not sure if that was it, but my meter is still jumping around. Could it the VR or the resenator?

My harness, like the rest of the car was cut up by a hack. Everything worked before I tore the car apart but I don't want to risk a fire with a restored car. I've found out there's no new harnesses so it's either find one in good shape or buy a universal one and figure everything out. If I have a weak point it's, wiring, I'd rather rebuild a tranny. Any suggestions?

I am running a performance coil and I took out the ballast resistor and just connnected the wires from the opposite sides of resistor together. I was told by a friend this would ruin the coil is this true? I have been awaiting a 280z electronic distributor to put in but it is yet to arrive. Frankenstein Z
