To those much smarter than I, I am replacing my fuel line (line 1 on the Service bulletin) from my tank to the fuel pump and my fuel regulator. While I am at the FR I was going to change the 3 lines out that connect to it (9,10,11 in the Service bulletin) because I anticipate and issue rot maybe. Any how the the auto parts store only carries standard size line.:stupid: What size standard line should I purchase to be good to go? Thanks in advance

Here's the deal, I have a fuel leak coming from the gas cap area. If the tank is more than 1/2 full and I make a sharp left turn, gas will leak out from the cap area and down the side of the car (YIKES). Not a good thing for the paint. Ive replaced the gas cap, gas flap and tighten all the screws. Not sure what the problem is. Anyone got have an idea about what's going on? Is there a NOS fuel filler neck replacement part?

Should I buy this car? The owner says it has very little rust with only 70k miles on it. He's willing to let it go for 2.3k. Car runs but I will be doing a ls1 swap anyways. It's a 3hr drive away and I will be checking it out tomorrow. The only bad thing I see is they destroyed the rear end with different horrbile looking lights and a hack job of a rear bumper shave. Owner says the rear was fiberglassed. What do you guys think? Buy or wait for a cleaner car? Unfortunately he doesnt have a better camera. Thanks in advance.

Hey guys Sorry if this sounds stupid, but I've never adjusted valves before. I read all the appropriate info and got the right tools (feeler gauge, crows feet wrench socket, 27mm socket, torque wrench) and know how to do it but... When got the No. 1 cylinder lined up, so the cam lobe points up, I can't get the nuts loose. I think the top one is the locking nut, botttom is adjuster. The locking nut is reg thread, righty tighty lefty loosey?? I could NOT get the top one to budge. EDIT: Okay I feel stupid now, I rechecked the write up and it appears that the BOTTOM nut is the lock nut, so I would need to lossen THAT first with the crows foot... right?? I used the 14mm …

Added a (FI) filter after the tank and before the FP used new F.I. rated fuel line 3.Took the cap off (BA fuel pump)and looked for any yuck (none found) put back the seals and spinner put the cap back on tighten the bolts. 4.Changed the fuel filter 5. changed the pressure regulator. made sure everything was tight and sealed. Now I can not get the car to start it turns over but nothing tried to cough (almost start) a couple times at first but not since and yes I put gas in the tank about 2 gallons.

So, I bought my car about a year and a half ago... a 1972 240z. A month later, the cylinder head went, so I replaced it with a 1975 280z n42 head. I have had some problems here and there with the car but overall it runs fine. There is just one little problem that no one seems to know the answer to... that is, when it reaches ~4500rpms the engine will die and then catch at 4000rpms. If you keep flooring it, it will just repeat this action over and over and over again... never going higher than 4500. Now, if you give it 75% throttle, it will pass the 4500 mark without any problems. I am totally confused... could it be the n42 head? If you need any more information on the ca…
