Help Me !!

I can't loosen the metal hoses connected to the bottom of the old master cyl. I have wasted a bottle of WD-40 and most of the skin on my hands trying. Rather not use a torch (don't ask) but any other thoughts?

you know everyone says how easy these are to tune la di da di da. well i tell you what. i want a set of weber DVG's again. i never had this much hassle out of those. well anyway now that im done ranting. all i did today was use a lil bit of good ole carb cleaner on my carbs to clean them out. well now its running like ****!!!! i dont know why i didnt touch anything but the filters to shoot some spray inside. well its running really bad lots of popping out of the exhaust at hi rpms. pops out of the intake at low rpms. WTF!! i got it running a lil better. timing is dead on. pulled the plugs rear 3 plugs heavily fouled i mean black soot. #5 is somewhat fuel fouled …

Hi all, My rpm meter lives his own live, at least sometimes. Under normal conditions it will do, but when you go up in the revs or at the highway, it runs to the end and will not come back until you stop for a while. How does it work? Does this sound familiar to anybody?

Well I just finished lowering my car(71Z) w/ tokico springs and struts,replaced all my bushings w/urethane and put new wheels and tires on it.Now, what I thought would be the easiest thing to do ,bleeding the brakes is giving me a hard time.I've bled them ,till I only get fluid out of the bleed ports but,my pedal still goes to the floor.Is my Master cylinder bad?It's not leaking externally.:dead: :dead:

All i wanted to do was bleed the Clutch, and this is what happend. I noticed on my way home that the clutch was not engagine easily, hard shifting etc. Also while the clutch was depressed and the car in put in reverse, i can feel grinding as the trans engages. After my unsatisfactory effort to bleed the system( I had my daughter depress the clutch slowly as i opend and closed the bleeder nut) I attempted to start the car while in reverse and the clutch depressed, and WHAM!!! I'm going backward!!!! The same thing happens when i put it in first gear and try to start. My salution.....The car is so light i get it started even though i am in 1st gear the whole time!!! so i…

About 2 months ago my dad bought me a 1970 240z from one of his employees. The owner had it for atleast 20 years and he said the guy before him also just had it sitting So we go to pick it up and bring it back to our house. We quickly take all the extra parts out of the interior and pop the hood. We replace the battery and spark plugs and get the fuel coming from a jerry can (we wern't sure how rusted the gas tank was). A little bit of noise and brrrum the engine starts and is purring like a kitten. The spedometer reads 26249. I don't know how to tell if its 120 or just 20 but the spark wires and etc where stock. Two months go by and i have it taken down to its …

Hello, ok i finnally got emough time off work to check and play around, anyays, there is good spark. and it's now running on 4 cylinders, 1-2-3-4 are running now, 4 just started today got it on teh road legally now, but not dribving it till this is working, anyways coudl it be stuck valves i got some rislone in there today and let it run a bit, now i got one more cylinder working, i was told that runing the engine, while only 4 of the cylinders are running the other two, the oil in them will be washed away by the gas that isn't geting burnt up is htis true, thanks

I've got an early 260z (dec 73 manufacture date) that will not crank. I've owned the car less than a year and don't know much about its history. I'm sure its getting gas because I have glass fuel filter cartridges and can see the gas moving. I pulled a spark plug wire, inserted a screwdriver and held it near the block while someone cranked it to see if I was getting an arc. No spark. So I checked my ignition coil which is a high output Mallory coil. My ohm meter showed that it was resistive. So I took it to Autozone because they advertise that they can test it for free. Well they couldn't. Neither could NAPA. So how do you know if your coil is good or bad? So then I thoug…

Hi, there again, lately my car has been smellin like gas bad, i did a search, and found out that the gas lines or somethignlike that is in the car at one point or something, anyways, so i figure i will replace teh lines probrally should be done anyways on this old car. Cani just call and auto part store and ask for some fuel lines, or do they have to be certain ones for this car??? Also i am smellin exaust while i drive mainly at higher speeds, but i need to get rid of this, it's not healthy and it's kinda embarassin when u have a nice arse car but it stinks to ride in it.. anyways thanks guys

it started when i saw sparks coming out of my light switch at the base....i have been currently driving without my steering column covers so my light and signal switches are exposed...i started my car and it was fine, then as i turn the light switch to the first click(park lamps) it was fine, as i go on to turn the lights on there were sparks at the base of the light switch where the wires are soldered...right where you see the soldering joints is where sparks came out and then the engine would die... i turned the lights switch off and started my car again and it started, then as soon as i turn my lights on sparks again and the car dies....this time i tried to start it a…
