All of a sudden my tail lights, dash lights and front and rear left and right parking lights do not light up. The head lights do work. Already checked the fuse box and the instrument / dome light and the rest of fuses are good. Where do i check next? All bulbs on the tail lights are fine. Where else shall i check? I have both of daves upgrade circuits installed.

Could someone please post a pic of their 240z brake check valve? I can’t locate mine maybe it doesn’t exist My running, almost rust free 1973 240z scraed me a bit on my first drive yesterday. The brakes are horrible. Feels like when I botched a bleeding on my wife’s brakes years back. Lots of pedal effort with just gradual slowing. Applying brake while idling causes an increase in RPM. A squishing airish sound when the brakes are first applied. I was originally thinking it was definitely the booster. Then I started to wonder about the check valve. I can’t even find the check valve. I assume it’s on the vacuum line somewhere between the brake booster…

I'm looking to buy a 240Z and have been checking different web sites for a vehicle. I came upon this forum and hopefully someone can be of some help as to what I should be concerned about in finding a decent car. Secondly, I bought a brand new 1971 240Z when I was stationed in Okinawa. I had it shipped to Philadelphia when I was discharged. I recently came upon the original paperwork for the car, VIN L24-027948. It was the mustard-yellow color. Can someone tell be the correct paint code and name for that color? Is there a registry for the 240Z that I might, in a long shot, track down the original car? ellagee@charter.net

Hello all This past Wednesday I noticed that my odometer had stopped working - both of them. If I remember correctly - and someone please advise if I'm wrong - but the trip odometer has to work for the actual odometer to work . So I reset the trip odometer and all was well (both were now working) until it reached 1.0. Odometer froze. Moved it a bit with the reset tab and it kept on, until, you guess it 2.0 where it froze again. Got home yesterday, pulled the speedo out, cleaned all the gears and lubricated everything but the numbers themselves on the trip odometer. Replaced everything - in the processes loosing the one tiny screw that holds the reset cable on. Drove …
