psdenno Posted January 24, 2011 Share #25 Posted January 24, 2011 Cleaned up the battery cables, put in a new rotor, and found the source of the transmission fluid slow drip leak - speedometer cable seal (I hope).Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cajunz Posted January 24, 2011 Share #26 Posted January 24, 2011 Walked over and said hello to my car. She sits suspended on the rotissoire. Hope to have all the metal work done so I can start getting ready for paint this summer. Also put up 3 suspended 4x8 plywood shelves over the garage doors to clear some of the clutter in the garage. This week, I plan on putting up shelves on two walls of the garage and then build a new work bench and cabinets. Once it warms up, the garage floors are going to get painted. It's gonna be nice when its done and the spousal unit likes that some of the clutter is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arne Posted February 13, 2011 Author Share #29 Posted February 13, 2011 (edited) Installed a pair of NOS non-smog (euro-dizzy) advance return springs in my original dizzy today. These springs have a quicker advance curve than the US emissions springs. Got 'em on eBay, Nissan part number 22110-E3100. They were dirt cheap.My car's dizzy had been "recurved" by a cowboy at some point in its past—the "mechanic" (or so we will call him) quickened the curve by simply removing one of the two return springs. This did bring on the mechanical advance faster and sooner, but it also was reluctant to return to the static timing at idle. That poor single spring didn't have the strength to pull both weights all the way back.These non-emission springs appear to be a good compromise. The curve is still quick, probably similar to the single spring. But now it returns to idle properly. Edited February 13, 2011 by Arne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zedyone_kenobi Posted February 14, 2011 Share #33 Posted February 14, 2011 I put some meguiers on my seats. Then sat in it and cursed the fact that put some meguiers on my seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zs-ondabrain Posted February 20, 2011 Share #36 Posted February 20, 2011 (edited) Rebuilt the Mechanical fuel pump (was leaking due to a bad Diaphram) Finished installing the Nissan Maxima Push button Start/Stop Switch into the 240Z. With a big thanks to Brian Laine, who designed and built the circuit board to make it all work like a Maxima, but in my 240Z. http://video.cardomain.com/VideoPlayer.aspx?id=2202506 Dave Edited February 20, 2011 by Zs-ondabrain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
