Sorry if this question is answered somewhere on the site already. I just bought (haven't even picked it up yet) '73 240Z that has been sitting for a couple of years. It needs some work- Gas tank drain/reseal; carbs; tune-up...and I'm sure there will be plenty more. I'm looking for a reliable/trustworthy mechanis in the Dallas are that I can drop the car off to and will do a great job. Can anyone out there assist? Can't wait to get this running and take her out. My Dad had a 280Z and it was always my favorite car. Thank you, in advance, for the assistance.

I had two valves hung up and removed the head and brought it to a local engine rebuilder . He found the head out of flat by .026. I agreed to have him send it to a place in canada and they heat treated the head to flatten it and took a trim coat of .006 inches. They did a beautifull job. The engine rebuilder will have it ready when I get back home. My question is do I have to treat the head gasket in any special way,that is , need any grease or lubricant. I have had various opinions on this gasket. My z is a1971 and I have had it in my garage fo 14 years waiting for time to restore it. Like all z cars this vintage I will have to do a good deal of work on the q…

i need help! i finally got my Z running with the dellortos, and she sounds cool!!!! however, one problem.... when i punch the gas, it bogs horribly bad and tries to stall. if i accelerate slowly, it works ok. both of these are under no load. under load, around 2500-3000 rpm's it just stops accelerating and looses all power. if i put in the clutch and pump the gas, eventually she catches and then takes off like no tomorrow! i believe the emulsion tubes are too lean for the application. does anyone know where to buy them or does anyone have some they'd be willing to sell??? i tried CB Performance in california. ordered tubes and filters. today, i just get filters a…

Hi Guys, I've been having alot of problems with my starter and starter scelenoid on my 75' 280Z. I would turn the key, and get nothing. It is not my battery. When I would hit the starter scelinoid, It would crank up after that. I was on my way to a NJ Z club meeting today, and I parked somewhere. When I got back to the car, turned the key, nothing. I took out my magic tool (a 1/2" rachet) and I hit the scelenoid several times, I got back in, and still nothing. I took the scelenoid off and lubricated it. Now I just need to know. When I put on the scelenoid, Does the little hole in the scelenoid plunger fit around the metal tab coming out of the starter? If anyone coul…

hi, i got an R200 LSD(86 300zx turbo) the other day (this time it is the correct R200). it does not have a drive shaft connected to it. According to the paragraph below i need a different drive shaft to install it to a 72 240z. from what car will i get this drive shaft. i have the original 4 spd in front. thanks, hf the paragraph below is taken from another z-page, i just dont know which one. i been to a lot of z sites this morning. The input flange is another story however. You either have to change your drive shaft yoke to match the input shaft on the differential, or you have to change the input shaft on the differential to match the yoke on your stock drive shaft. M…

can i swap a newer afm from a 79 or 83 280zx (non turbo) into my 78 280z? or do you guys know of any way to test the afm in my 78 to check if it is working or not? thanks. another note.. has anyone ever tried to rebuild the afm? i am short on money and just need to get my car to pass smog, i was told the afm may be at fault.

i could use some help diagnosing my problem, or at least where to look. here's where it is: last weds replaced thermostat, ran a little hotter but stable temp. thursday the wire that runs from the main harness to the solenoid shorted and caused a short somewhere, and i think fried a cell in my battery. was able to jump start, and drive home. friday, car just quit. no nothing when i turn the key. also, when the wire shorted, my amp guage filled up with smoke, so i think that's toast too, although after i jumped it and it ran, the needle was moving around (it would jump when i turned on the lights). i've tried a different battery - still didn't start or do anything. i also …
