I just received an invitation from Palos Verdes Concourse d'elegance. Well, it looks like they will have "Japanese Sports Cars (thru 1972)" for the first time. Since I live very near by, I will except the invitation and bring 2 or 3 very fine 240Z cars. Let's see what happens. I also heard that Toyota museum will bring 2000GT also, so it will be a good show for Japanese classics. http://www.pvconcours.com/classes.php

The car started dieseling after it is warm. Not for very long, just a second or two, but it is annoying. Anyone know a common cause for this? L28, 4 screw SU's, petronix ignition.

I was doing some electrical work in the center console and am looking for the choke light bulb. I know it's getting power as well. I've searched a few local parts stores with no luck. Any ideas? Thanks for the help!

First off, I do apologize for my noob question (i know, so you dont need to repeat it to me). After a month of my z being neglected, i was finally (my mechanic neighbor actually) able to get the engine running. He told me that i need a water pump and a radiator. He got me a water pump for $20 but cannot find a radiator. My question is, living in the inland empire (San Bernardino County California), where temps are regularly at 90-105, what radiator should i get? I've always told myself that I'm only gonna upgrade to something better and modern (since I'm not looking into restoring this particular z) whenever a certain part craps out on me. I'm looking for a local southern…

I find myself having to go through a 1 time smog check with my '73. I talked to the tech while having my 911 smogged and he said it might pass with the triple Webers as long as the expected smog equipment was in place. I know the '73 didn't have an air pump, did it have an EGR? I forgot to grab my factory service manual while I was in Sacramento today... That would have told me.

currently working on rebuild of 73 240. went out to purchase some new bumpers and other various pieces from a fella out of town, and was surprised to see alot of other items for sale in his garage also. long story short, i purchased all he had that was for a 240z, one item of which was this new motor. supposedly pulled from a 71, it looks incredibly clean, but has obviously had some work done to it. here's the scoop. The motor has all that is common to a 71 l24, e88, dome top su's, no smog items, etc. however, the block has been painted( orange), gaskets are obviously new, clutch looks like it has very few kilos on it also. PO, says that that he found it in a 'barn find'…
