I will be the first to admit that Radio's and wiring are not my strong point. This has to be so simple, but I can't figure it out. Got in the car this morning radio is working fine. Just went out to the store, and the radio lights are on, but no sound. I checked the speakers, contacts are good. There is no static, or any type of sound what-so-ever, however the radio is working fine. Any thoughts? Thanks, Randy

I want to remove the emblems for a full cleaning and paint buffing. Front and rear logos are no problem, but how do i remove the "Datsun" front fender and "Z" rear quarter (air vent) emblem on both sides? From below the car i have access to one of the clips of the front fender emblem but the second one is apparently not so easily accessed. Do i need to remove the inner panels to remove the "Z" rear emblem? Thanks, Adrian

Hey guys, could use some help. About a year ago an exhaust manifold stud broke right at the cylinder head. Now it's started to leak, so I attempted to fix it today. I've tried to drill out the stud, but I'm not getting anywhere, so I guess I need to take the cylinder head off and take it to a maching shop. It's only been 35 years since I did this, so I'm a bit rusty. I bought the chain retainer from Motorsports today, but can't remember which side to put it on. Last time I made my own out of wood! Do I need to take the rocker arms out first? Instructions say to take the oil gallery off too. Why? Can the cam stay in as well? Again, it's been awhile so I appreciate the hel…

I currently installed a triple Weber 40DCOE-151 carb conversion on my 1971-240Z (Automatic transmission). I am trying to upgrade the ignition/coil and ditributor and cannot get the answers for these three parts. I would like to use an MSD 6AL ignition with and MSD Blaster 2 coil but can't get the answer for the MSD distributor. I checked the Black Dragon parts supply and see that they have a Unilight-Mallory optical L.E.D. ignition listed but they have changed the part numbers in their catalog. When I call them, they only have counter help to take your order and cannot give me any technical information. When I called Mallory, the technical staff confirmed that their new M…

Hi, My name is Dan Wetmore. I've been a member of this site for about four years; around the time I purchased my first 240z. It was also around that time that I started a band. Back then I didn't know exactly where my life would go; Z or band? I've been very fortunate in the past few years and my band is doing things that I could have never imagined. This is very unfortunate for my Z car, however and I need to sell the poor girl. It's a well rusted 1973 240z taken pretty much all apart. It rolls on some pretty darn expensive Compomotive ML wheels, but that's about all I can offer. I really need the space that the body takes up. What should I ask for the body and w…

I have almost given up! My car has run pretty well untill about 3 weeks ago. Before that it had some serious gas issues. I let the fuel tank get to low and now it wont start. Reading up on here it looks like the problem lies within the fuel tank. So I got the fuel tank restored, Changed the fuel pump, changed some lines, changed the FPR ect ect....still nothing! what else can I try????? any help would be great! Thanks

I looked through the archives, but couldn't find the problem I'm experiencing. I've tried 3 different stock 240Z AM/FM radios (I know, I'm a pack rat) and the FM is very strong, but the AM is extremely weak, in fact only the strongest AM signal in Denver (the mighty 850 KOA) is barely there. So obliviously, it must be the antenna, but I only have one working stock antenna. the good thing is that I do have some spare stock antenna parts. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

hi, i'm new to z's and not much of a mechanic besides basic stuff, but i have a friend helping me who knows a lot more than i do. we've been working on this car for several days. the car isn't some rust bucket that's been sitting in a field for years....well kept black pearl. the previous owner kept it in a garage when he wasn't driving it. claimed he rebuilt the engine along with a lot of other work and drove it daily for two years. then it was garaged for a short time after he got a Z28. not long enough for me to think the tank is in that bad of shape, but you never can fully trust someone your buying a car from. i've been through so many forums and threads sear…
