I have a 1976 280Z, it starts up cold just fine, runs great. But, after I turn it off for about 15 to 20 mins, it will run really rough and then smoth out after about 45 sec to a minute. Any advise?

The timing was off by 1 notch, now she runs good, but I have 2 issues. I timed her to the manual and she has a small miss. After I have driven her for a while and shut her off, and then go to restart her after only a few mins, the engine runs rough for a few second and then smoths out. Any ideas? Thanks

Just replaced the timing chain and now the engine will not start, it turns over fine and pops, but will start. Any thoughts? 76 280Z

Thanks for advise, this helps alot

I am currently trying to replace the timing chain on my 1976 280Z, This is my frist 280Z. So I am following the manual. I need to remove the crack shaft pully to then remove the timing chain cover. The manual states I need to lock up the engine to losen the retaining nut on the crack shaft. It states the best way to do this is to remove the fly wheel inspection cover and then I can lock up the engine. Are they talking about the removing the starter to access the fly wheel?
