The hole position varies. They just drill in a straight line for some, then another straight line for the others, I think. Those lobes would be for the same cylinder. That looks like a very wide lobe separation angle if that chip is at the top of the lobe. I'd keep an ear on it, then an eye. http://datnissparts.com/new-oe-l6-camshaft-datsun-240z-260z-280z-l24-l26-l28-13001-e4182/

I don't see any holes in the three cam lobes you showed. The internally oiled cams have those to let the oil out. Why does he say "new cam" when it looks like you got a used one? That chip might work but it could also self-destruct rapidly. Looks like the chip is on the base circle though, where there should be almost no pressure. Only the anti-rattle springs pressing on it.

I use an awl, a wood screw, and vise-grips.

You can buy them at any auto parts store. No need to wait for delivery, just get them when you need them.

You're going to have to give a better description than "no click stop when I flick it with my finger". Make a video.

Since the thread quality isn't an indicator of the quality of the potential failure point your worry level should be the same. Your "new" used axle is just as likely to fail as your old used axle.

Quiz him on what was good about it and what he would have changed if he still had it. Then go find one like that.

The diff mount seems to be sitting high. Look up in this hole and see if there is a nut on the threaded stud. Stole from Namerow.

Interesting plot showing vaccination versus virus.

Have you checked all of your grounds? Grounds are more important than most people think. Weird stuff can happen. Might be affecting the ECU operation. Random internet thing about ground loops... https://www.bapihvac.com/application_note/understanding-ground-loops-application-note/

Your test results don't seem to match what happens when the engine is running. Why focus on the AFM when the TVS has the biggest effect? I don't know that the AFM numbers are as critical on the ECCS systems since they have closed loop control. That's why they give a wide range in the specs. Can't offer much help. Your car seems to be haunted. Weirdness abounds. Lifting the distributor cap to fix a rough idle...unplugging the TVS makes it run right even though it tests correctly... Mystery.

Unplugging the TVS would tell the computer that the engine is not at idle. That is all. This causes certain things to happen. I'm not sure exactly what happens but the dramatic effect that you see suggests that your TVS is short-circuited or the wiring harness is, showing the engine at idle all the time when it is plugged in.

This can't happen unless the wheels are spinning or the differential is broken. If the differential is broken it's permanent. There's no not moving then moving.

The internet is an amazing thing. I tracked down a guy who was ripping people off and using the money to pay for his wedding. Just for fun, I didn't share the info with the victims, just told them it was "out there" if they wanted to find it. The dealership might have the VIN and the VIN is used by most people that sell 240Z's these days. https://bringatrailer.com/datsun/240z/?q=240z

Add as much more information as you can. This is nowhere near enough. Not even close. Pictures, dates, names, dealership, etc. will all leave traces on the internet. 72-73 240Z is everywhere though. Well?...

Clutch problem

Automatic or manual?

No. heyitsrama is probably right. Looks like your exhaust system has broken before the muffler. That's why it sounds like a straight pipe. Your timing sounds retarded also. Have you set it with a timing light recently?

You should create a youtube channel and put your videos there. I've only been able to play a couple of them. Your latest one won't play.
