I couldn't, there was not tread left, even the vice technique was tricky

Thanks to all the comments, I finally removed it Pb blaster, and vice grips, , thanks again and let's keep going:D

Yes its very true what you say, however is still hard to find someone my group age that shares that passion as I do, and yes i am one of the lucky ones close to MSA, just to let you know I was there 2 days ago at 10am (it was a religious experience), and there there was ...no foot traffic, I was disappointed, but then I could hear in the background the phones off the hook , I realize what you just said , ... Still , hope as i said someone is around , close enough to discuss or just chat , about the progress in my z, I guess I will be still looking

Wow I just git a ter:o

Hello anybody around working on a Z around OC, hope I am no alone

Sorry same down here , I'm in orange county, and yes I know how you feel working alone in the z ....sometimes

Thanks guys, as always you guys are expanding my mind to soak the knowledge I need to get out of the ."little problems" that we all - if I'm not wrong- have had experienced with the restoring process. I'll give it a try and let you guys know how it went, again thanks brotherZ and sisterZ

As you can see in the pic I am in a pickle ,any toughs ? How could i removed it now ? Hope somebody could help me

Cygnusx1 is right, between fuel tank and unit Attached is a picture, I recently replace my fuel tank

Welcome to the z family

Zed head, you are correct, the 1/2 from the fuel tank fits the1/2 of the fuel pump, and yes, the fuel tank outlet next to the one in mention its an small one, the problem is the filter , I wasn't sure if the 1/2 line was an improvisation of the past owner , or i was doing something wrong, do you think I could use an adapter to make the fram g3 fit ? Would that affect the fuel flow ? Thanks guys

I'm trying to put the fram filter between the fuel tank and the pump, however the hose that goes to the pump it is not a 3/8 as everybody is saying it seems to be a 1/2 , attached is a picture of the fuel tank nipple, I do not know if the owner before me tried to "reinvent" the way the fuel flow goes ,due to the fact that he replace the OEM fuel pump and removed the damper ,any thoughts?

Hello I am just trying to finally catch-up on my 76 280z and trying to find that infamous fuel-afm problem, in the process I checked the fuel pump , do you think the bending in the fuel line (picture) would affect the flow in the whole fuel process?

Hello sorry for the question, but i just got a used AFM unit , however the guy that sold it to me had it not hooked up to the car, therefore he didnt know what rod to use to ground the unit . wich will be the rod to use?, I attached a picture with a 1 , 2 or 3 marks so I don get it wrong, thanks for your help.

I'm curious if there is any problem with length of driveshaft or with the length of the transmission housing. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks for the responses

THANKS EVERYBODY!! You are giving me a lot of points to check that MOST LIKELY I would have missed on my own. I'll be updating... THANK AGAIN

Jaltman thanks for the advice.

Andrew thanks for the advice

Just an update: car hasn't been acting up, since I isolate the MAF unit from the ground rod (MAF has no bracket) , i dont know if that was the problem. Like you said FastWoman... this intermittent problems are the worst so far.. Thanks

Seems that I have to be more careful about my Grammar:) Grammar aside, today I drove my Z for almost 35 minutes with no problem. I will try Steve suggestion:) Thanks for good sense of Humor FastWoman!:classic:

Thanks I'll try it
