Man tht is the truth... I'm still trying to tak myself into the badges for my 72 240Z. Not just a Z - ZDisease

Give Oliver (aka zman) a call at http://www.datsunstore.com/index.php/cPath/4_121 This is where I got the replaceemnt rubber for the bumper on my 72 240Z. Jay Not juts a Z - ZDisease

Fuel Injected 280Z engine ? Jay Not just a 72 240Z - Z Disease

What about the tripple intake manifold ? I saw a picture last night that had a early Z sporting 3 SU's. Jay Not just a Z - ZDisease

Has the sending unit ever been removed ? I discovered my 72 240Z had a sending unit installed 180 degrees wrong. My sending unit had been removed to allow for gas tank restoration. Jay Not Just a Z - zdisease

And don't forget the breather hoses...... I am so tempted to remove the fuel fuel vapor control soluition and just pollute the environment a little bit..... Maybe drive faster Jay Not just a Z - ZDisease

But 240Z in 72 were not 280Z ? Do you have a 280Z with a 2400 cc in it ? Truely strange... Jay Not just a Z - ZDisease

I think 240Z are ment for flogging the turns a bit over the speed limit. The idea of treating a Z machine like a model T just doesn't jib to me... Maybe when I get older and more mature... But not now or too soon.... Jay Not just a Z - ZDisease

I feel no pain replacing the strut cartridges in my 240Z with Tokico .... I belive the Z likes it too... Better handling....I also replaced the springs and added a rear anti sway bar.... My philosophy is based on the idea that these cars were born to run..... Fun is a key component.. Jay Not just a Z - ZDisease

While we are on the topic of Natural Disasters..... The wild fire in 4 Mile Canyon near Boulder Colorado has backed off a bit... 154 homes wiped out.... A weather event now has authorities warning people in Boulder to pay attention to developments tonight as winds pick up...... Man.... Jay

I guess I know who NOT to get some help from for suspension issues. ......

I have the opposing issue... Fuel gauge always full.. Disconnect the fuel sending unit and the fuel gauge goes to empty.. This has me thinking I need a new sending unit... I ordered a sending unit while the memory of almost running out of gas while test driving at night was fresh in my mind.... I was driving at night to experience all the lights working... Jay Not just a Z - ZDisease

Too nice...... Fuel handling is a nice touch.... New springs too ? Jay Not just a Z - ZDisease

If the top is that bad I have to wonder if there is any metal under the car. Jay

I just went thru this exercise on my 72 240Z 1. Make sure the harness connections are good on the steering column - Especially the grounds - I found one issue by shaking the wiring harness 2. Clean the harness connections on the passenger side under dash 3. Make sure the bulbs are right 4. Replace the flasher unit located above the steering column with a digital unit 5.
