Posted June 24, 200915 yr comment_287816 My '77 is all fixed as I want it but I still have this problem:1. Running Rich2. MPG is 17mpg - was up to 22mph for a few days......3. I can feel the gas loading up coming out of 1st and 2nd gear (bogs down a little)4. All tests at a local NISSAN dealer with a "gray beard" mechanic show no problems. I even left it with him for 3 weeks but he could not find anything.I do drive her every day and the backend is showing the collection of black smoke from running rich.My question is:1. Since I am not a mechanic at all, what kind of shop could I take her to - ie like a Race Shop, a luxury car shop, etc????I am not sure where to go with this now. I am in the Atlanta area.(History info)1. New Cold start injector- April 20092. New Plugs/wires – jan 20093. New Vacumm hoses all round – jan 20094. New Fuel Injectors, new wiring harness/pigtails – Jan 20095. Rebuilt Air Flow Meter installed - jan 20096. New Thermotime switch – April 20097. Swapped 4 speed xmission for rebuilt 5-speed Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/32333-need-a-mechanic-type-recommendation/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 24, 200915 yr comment_287817 There are a couple of Z experts in the north Atlanta area:John Williams in Sugar Hill (770-806-2926)Eddie Radatz of E. Radatz Motorsports in Kennesaw (770-926-6609)I can't find a web site for either. They both must be old-school mechanics but that's what you need.
