Park / tail lights fuse keeps blowing
That may have been my fault Steve. Since it was fine until he pulled the radio, I was thinking he might have gotten a lose wire, coin or something under there. Wil, do everything Steve says. He's the Picasso of electrical gremlins around here. I'm still in kindergarten drawing stick figures!

Park / tail lights fuse keeps blowing
So with the lights off, you put the fuse in and it blows? Have you turned the switch on and off a few times to make sure it's not shorting somehow internally? Sounds like you have a grounded short if it's not in the switch. I'm assuming you've been driving it with the lights on at some point since you've got it and this just started. Aside from the radio you didn't mess with the fuse block in anyway and no lose wires running up under the fuse block?

Park / tail lights fuse keeps blowing
I'll start with the obvious, no ill will intended, you have the correct amperage fuse installed correct? And this condition happens regardless if you turn the parking lights on? And your isolating to the parking lights on only, not stepping on the brake pedal?

Cool Exhaust Sound Options please
Thanks. I have full 2.5" MSA, w/ headers I just don't like their muffler and that sound is great. I was going to go with a borla, but seeing and hearing that I'd rather keep the money in the Z community.

I dont know the year of my 240z
How many years has it been sitting? The other thing that is very easy to do is pop the valve cover off and take a look at the cam. If cam lobs are nice and shiny great, poor some oil on the lobs and go. Madkaw bought a Z and his cam was rusty when he took his valve cover off. Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile

Turbo a L24
Find a donor 81-83 turbo zx complete and steel all the necessary items. You've left out a lot of important information like budget and HP goals. Since you want to turbo what you got it sounds like your budget is rather low. Remember more HP means more $$$. You'll spend a lot of money buying it piece by piece than finding a complete car. The N42 with the block you have is likely high compression and won't like a lot boost, but it can be done. Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile

I kept waiting for a tire to explode or for him to hit the wall or fence. At least where some sunglasses, geese. Young and dumb, I remember those days.

Yeah I didn't know either of these thanks. So the tagging thing does send them a notification? I'm usually good with forums, but I can't figure out twitter or Facebook. I'm even an IT guy! Honestly, I just don't care for Facebook and real name stuff. I simply don't use it. I have a fictitious name so I can see things when I need to.

Hmmm. I'm guessing since I've commented in this thread I get notifications already. It must give others who haven't posted in the thread notice?
