    well it does need a tune up no doubt...so i wouldnt consider it wasten my money im just eliminating possibilities before i go and spend a bunch on a head job for the z and yes the car will idle high at a stop light or sign then i have to punch the gas to get it to idle down...

    Ok i took my z down the road the other day it is sluggish as hell there is no way this thing is running on all cylinders so my first step is going to get wires, plugs, dist cap and rotor button if the problem still persists what should i do next???
  7. you guys got jokes of course i would replace the head gasket after taking the head of thats like trying to reuse used toilet paper it just wont work eeeeeew but yeah i talked to the guy i bought it from and he said that the head gasket was just replaced not to long ago so i guess im going to just get the head redone for the valve seals and go ahead and put new rings in aswell.
  8. nah bro its blue it could only be one of two rings or valve seals given the situation i have more than likely its valve seals i hope than rings....
  9. the car has 137 thousand miles on it bro it is blue smoke if it does smoke when it is started it is a little bit but does not persist but after ten minutes af sitting it will start to blow out blue smoke not a big cloud or anything but when i rev the motor up it will blow out a bunch of smoke
  10. Alrught man thanks for the tip how much you think everything would cost head redone and rings?
  11. Yeah bro after idling and i hit the accelerator it will blow out a bunch of smoke so i bet it is the valve seals this means i have to take the head to get redone at a machine shop right??
  12. see that the part that brings me back to another question it doesnt smoke all the time though wouldnt it smoke continously if it was the rings???
  13. When i put my 1983 280z in reverse i hear a loud clunk from the rear of the car i dont think it is the gears but a mount of some sort any ideas????.
  14. When i first start my 1983 280z it wont smoke but after ten minutes it starts to smoke any tips guys?????
