   On my 260z when i go out for school in the morning(choke is electric not manual) the car doesnt reallly want to start it keeps droping down to 0rpm's and sometimes you have to hold the gas down to keep rpm's up for a bit till it catches and then the car will not drive well at all(it jerks and tries to die) until it gets to 150 Degrees or right in the middle of the temp gague... how can i fix this?

   Hey folks. I am a fairly new 240Z owner, and I had made a few calls to local shops in town about the price of a new carb... and DAMN. I had no idea these things were so expensive! I was quoted $500-600 for the su carbs...and $1200 for the Weber carbs! Is this accurate? Or are they just jerking my chain? If it is correct...do any of you know how I can get a used or reconditioned carb for less than that? HEEEELP!!!

   Replaced radiator, now it won't idle right 1 2

   I just finished putting in a new stock radiator in my '77 280z. However, when I started it up to get the coolant running, it seemed as though the gas was not being regulated correctly - heavy smoke and a real stink comin out the back. My other thought is that it may also have to do with the intake, which sounded like it was sucking away harder than usual. Funny thing is, the radiator and coolant system seems to work just fine. Any help or ideas would be GREATLY appreciated.

    I have 75 Z FI. I runs very good when it's cold but the engine stalls and hard to restart when hot. I know that its running rich because I blow black clouds when I dig my spurs into it, but the more I lean out the AFM the hotter the engine runs and thus the worse the problem becomes aftr warm up. I have a new distributor, wires, cap, rotor, intake/exhst manifold gasket, no appearent vacume leaks, new PVC, PVC hose good. Runs great but the time I get work (14 Miles) I'm fighting to keep it running and heaven forbid it cuts off, because it will be hard to restart. I have to disconnect all of the injector terminals, run out the excess gas and then I can usually get it r…

    You guys always have the best comments!!!! I dont understand whats the matter with splitfires? I hear they fire better and more constistantly than NGK's. At $6.84 per pair they better do something really good!!! Hey did i tell you about the guy at the auto shop i go to, he is Chinese and he complimented me on my car. Even gave me these two really kool chinese word stickers. Said they mean "Speed Attitude" Think i'll find an appropriate place to put them on my Z and take a pic and post it. Oh one last think, anyone ever use Lucas Oil Stabilizer in there manual tranny? I just dumped a 32 oz bottle in there with 32 oz of Slick 50 80-90wt gear oil. I think i slight…
