  1. I've been working on Z's for quite a while now and just noticed that the 240Z dizzy #1 position is 60 degrees off compared to the 280Z's so when I switched from a petronix installed 240z dizzzy to a known good 280Z one I couldn't get the car to start till I removed the two scews that limit how far you can turn the dizzy and just turned it till I got it started but I also found my timing mark on the other side of the crankshaft did some research and read something about timing marks on air conditioned vehicles were on the oposite side of the crankshaft.I ended up repositioning my distributor drive to get my dizzy to point to #1 at TDC.If you compare a 240Z distributor cap to 280z you'll notice #1 on one is on the left of the clip and on the other it's on the right which is 60degrees off.I also tried moving my wires 1 post over but in my frustration decided to do it right starting off with everthing at TDC.Hope this helps you out.
