I have had an ongoing problem with my tach bouncing when I shift. It goes up about 1500 to 2000 rpms when I shift. Doesn't seem to bounce while in gear, or at idle. I searched for this topic but didn't see anything. Any thoughts?

Working to get a car back on the road after a 20 year nap. Tank has been cleaned and reinstalled. Working to replace the electric fuel pump. However, power dose not seem to be making it back to the fuel pump. A kill switch was placed under the dash and that seems to work, power goes in and comes out of the switch and to the harness connector in the console under the radio, but no power is making it to the connector at the fuel pump. There are two wires at the pump with bullet connectors, one is ground (black wire) and I has been tested for continuity, the other will not read. I figure that there is a break some where between the console and the back of the car. Ho…

My 1974 260z haa uad some difficulty starting. I read up and found the engine has a reset button so I tried this and it would finally turn over, after i had replaced starter and ignition switch, but every wire in the ignition system got so hot they started to smoke... I'm not going to pretend es and I have any idea what's happening. The car has an electrical points upgrade, and an ignition coil from a 240. Currently not messing with it for fear of burning all my wires completely. Please help!

Starting off by saying hello.. First post but have read a lot. I recently purchased a gem 1973 240z. The car is nothing short of amazing. Super clean original, working dealer installed air, no rust, has been repainted.. a really lucky find and as fate had it, found just a few miles from my home.. I'm building it to a daily. Will be sure to post some pictures. My problem. I have installed pertronix ignition with a 1.5ohm coil. I have wired it precisely to the John Hull wiring diagram with the BR wired in.. My tach no longer functions. It worked perfectly before the swap. All wiring appears to be factory with the exception on the red and black pertronix. Wha…

Any suggestions for trouble shooting the parking brake light. It does not illuminate when you pull on the parking brake. Have checked the connection and seems ok. All dash lights were recently changed. How do you check the voltage and where? What fuse is the brake line on? Have changed all fuses but no luck.

Hey guys, is there a how-to recurve the Datsun vacuum advance mechanism? What are typical target values? I got a remanufactured Cardone ZX dizzy and would like to play with it a little bit. As far as I understood, there are two screws: - Inner screw for maximum advance (CCW for more maximum advance?) - outer screw for vacuum setpoint to start advance (CCW or CW for sooner start of vacuum advance?)

Something isn't right with the T/S. The turn signal handle will go up ( right turn ), but it won't go down because of the little white block for the horn, as in pic. Where do the T/S tabs hit at ? On the steering column forward of the ball bearings ? I'll find out when I put the plastic clam shell on, shouldn't I ? Thank you very much

I have LED's for most of my lights. Not headlights or dash lights. I have a CF13JL02 3 pin flasher from superbrightled's and a Novita EP35 3 pin flasher. Can I replace my silver pan flashers with these ? The electronic flashers are different brands. Are they the same thing ? Thank you very much.

while replacing my blower fan fuse I noticed the replacements were too long, my guess is its a metric vs standard thing. I have 1/4 x 1 1/4 cooper busman fuses that only have about 1/2 the contact patch it seems like it should. so any idea of a correct way of getting a fuse? http://www.littelfuse.com/~/media/automotive/datasheets/fuses/automotive-aftermarket/glass-fuses/littelfuse_aftermarket_glass.pdf agx or sfe?
