KenFirch Posted September 10, 2020 Share #1 Posted September 10, 2020 Okay, I know I'm getting old, but I usually still do a decent job of putting parts on the right storage shelf of the different make cars I work on. Found this on the Z shelf, which I took apart 3+ years ago, and I'm not sure if it goes on the Z or not. Looks like an interior part or something. If so, please give me a hint so I can return it to it's original location. If not, never mind.... Thanks! Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchzcarguy Posted September 11, 2020 Share #2 Posted September 11, 2020 It would really surprise me when that came out of any Z... (maybe it lay in the trunk, but not a nissan/datsun part.) Aren't that in fact two peaces? ? Maybe a giant doorcard clip hihi... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenFirch Posted September 11, 2020 Author Share #3 Posted September 11, 2020 Obviously not from a Z, probably my kid messin' with my head.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears to not have any bolt holes for attaching it to a Z or any other car for that matter. I think your kid is messin' with you too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenFirch Posted October 26, 2020 Author Share #5 Posted October 26, 2020 Okay, back to this mystery part. I think it’s the fitting that holds the hot end of the 2” pre heater flex hose that connects to the bottom of the air cleaner cover. You know, the one most people remove because it’s such a PITA. [emoji846]. So, it slides around the front part of the exhaust manifold, and the bottom end of the flex hose connects to it. Must not be a factory part though, maybe a quick fix back in the California smog days? Anyway, don’t see any other place on the exhaust manifold or shield to connect hose, and I don’t need it where I live anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siteunseen Posted October 26, 2020 Share #6 Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) Would that be considered a heat riser maybe? Someone may have made it to clip on a header runner? Edited October 26, 2020 by siteunseen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parman Posted August 21 Share #7 Posted August 21 Hi all, I took apart my 1971 240Z 3 years ago, and even though I took lots of photos and documented almost everything, I can't figure out where this felt pad was glued onto. It's cross stitched so it's something special...anybody recognize it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchzcarguy Posted August 22 Share #8 Posted August 22 I don't know... maybe on one of the (side) valves of the heaterunit in the dash? I know something like that it also on one of the main valves in the heater/cooling unit in the dashboard but it's about 4 x bigger.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grannyknot Posted August 22 Share #9 Posted August 22 Maybe the fuzzy side of Velcro that holds the particle board spare tire cover down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parman Posted August 22 Share #10 Posted August 22 I found this photo on bringatrailer... What is this, and why is it there? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namerow Posted August 22 Share #11 Posted August 22 It's a Velcro strip that helps hold the spare wheel cover (pressboard) in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parman Posted August 22 Share #12 Posted August 22 Yes, I realize there are 3 velcro strips around the tub for the cover, but that black rectangular piece is what I was looking at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
