I took the A/C off my 1972 auto 240Z. I took the rad out and the Compressor, I had to cut 2 wires at the fire wall, they are A/C related but I don't know exactly what they are in for? Yet they were connected to the canister in front of the oil filter on the A/C system. Took the A/C belt off. And now, the miss doesn't start, it crank OK, I can here the engine running on as long as I keep the key on crank... but stall as soon as I put the key back to run? I dont think there is any Hot wire from the one i cut, could it come from the belt being out and unloading the engine????????? In one word..... help:(

Last weekend, I pulled the head off my Z in order to check out the head gasket. I have been losing coolant and the engine starting to get hot every time I drive the car for at least 20 minutes. After the 20 minutes, it seems the radiator is down a good gallon of water... (yeah, lots!!). I pretty much figured I had a bad head gasket. Unfortunately, when this first happened, I was coming home from the annual Motorsport Show in 06, and it was a small leak back then, where I would refill the radiator every hour or so, but it got to the point to where it is now, where I can't really drive it at all without having to worry about it losing too much water. Anyway, here's some mo…

Hey guys, First, let me say that I am not the sharpest knife in the drawer when it comes to mechanics, but this has me puzzled. I went to flush my radiator just a few seconds ago, and the drain plug on the bottom of the radiator is a plastic wing turn screw. I turn it and it drains the fluid, but it doesnt come completley out....why? How can I flush it if it stays in the hole. There are two metal screw plugs that I thought were drain plugs, but when I took them out nothing happend, no drainage. The only way to drain is to loosen the plastic wing nut, but again it just comes loose and drains, but wont come off. Am I doing something wrong......Help please. PS...73 240…

Hello all, I have a quick question regarding Tokico springs and shocks. I have an 1982 280ZX 2+2 and wanted to get Tokico springs and shocks for it. I found a kit on ebay for all four corners (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TOKICO-HP-SHOCKS-NISSAN-280ZX-79-83-BEST-PRICE_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33590QQihZ006QQitemZ160115090679QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW) but the guy says that they will only fit the 2 seater. However, on the Tokico website (http://www.hitachi-hap-la.com/TokicoGasShocks/app/19a.html) there is no mention of a difference between the 2 seater and the 2+2. Personally I cant see why there would be a difference, but I dont really want to buy them and have them s…

Hi I'm quite new with my Z, but also everything has worked smoothly with my car. Now the only problem, which I haven't figured out is where do you check the automatic transmission oil level and where is the spot to make the refill? I have some experience with newer cars, but not with automatic gearbox. I have the factory manual for 260z(y.74), but it doesn't say so clearly how do check the oil level.
