Ever heard the horror stories about "what the P.O. did to the car" before you got a hold of it?. Well the people on that show are the P.O.s They suck, period.

UTTER CRAP. I could have bondoed an air dam smooth, filled in marker light holes and screwed up the interior just as fast when I was 16 years old.

thinking of my Datsun during this disaster makes me feel small and selfish. Time to give blood.

pick and pull yard?

Funny thing is, it looks like someone actually took there time building that front bumper, Yikes! oh and congrats.

Drop tranny, remove clutch, remove fly wheel....

Thats how I replaced mine (78 280). I know sort of a pain in the arse for such a simple matter.

If this junk is free I would put it up in my garage (if I had one). But spending good money on junk dealers throw in the landfill is pissing money away, but hey, if you like it and need it that much what the hey.

I could be wayyyyyyyy off but could it be a blown head gasket?

Try Tabco, some grinding and welding.

ok so now I can start with Christian jokes!!!

is it a 240 or 280? I am confused.

I also had to order mine from MSA $$$ but it worked out preatty good. you can see were it was a bit short for plug welding like the original at the forward edge, so I had to weld along the edge to make it work, this detail is hidden under the weather seal.

very nice, I love the color looks like the orange that is almost red.

I believe I see snorkles on those trucks.

I know this is old but hey: http://www.zug.com/pranks/powerbook/

Bike: 1977 KH400 and 2006 Moto Guzzi Breva 750 I ride roads in the mountains great fun! Ok and a 1991 Joe Murry Cona (mountain bike)

that works, or get a new shift boot.

got to be for a power antenna

Is the washer copper? You mean annealing?

Mine is a 78 also, Dave you have a 260 no? I just assumed that the 260 would be similar to the 280 because the dashes are the same.

BOOOOOOOOO:disappoin

Yes, one easy to get to left of the steering wheel under the dash the other a PITA, I think above the steering column close to the firewall. So did Robin260z replace both with electonic flashers?

So Am I understanding that you replaced BOTH flasher units? not sure about the 260 but my 280 has two one for turn and one for hazards.

I have been in this same boat. What Z brain said: check the fuel pressure. Also can you here the fule pump running? My 78 never had a fuel filter after the tank till I installed one myself as a tempory solution to a rusty gas tank, before I did that rust would clog the fuel pump, not good $$$.
