Cruel and unusual punishment is over for the next few days. Mother Nature is an illegal border crosser from Canada, she's overburdening our air "Build the wall".

Do you recomend these cams (Comp Cam)?
Do you need a oiler cam or is it pre 9/76 that has the spray bar? I've got some "JAPAN" stamped S30 oe cams and I might consider selling. Heres a chart on original cams... https://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/cam/index.htm

weird sound upon cranking
Okay a comma would've been best, ..."good and tight, (coma) all of the connections while your bent over." Picky, picky, picky. If your last name isn't Strunk or White back off. I'm from Alabama. I get some leeway. Furthermore sniffing my house plants makes me sneeze. You must smoke them skunks like turkey meat.

The guy I work for is doomsday prepper and has a huge house about half a mile from me. Generac that uses natural gas to run a 4 cylinder Ford motor and a walk in liquor/wine cellar. Always welcome so I hope my power goes out.

Somebody posted this stuff a day or so ago. It's close to what my dentist uses on my teeth. Amazing how it works at the dentist and now that I can jb weld my teeth myself no more white coat anxiety and a lot less money.

I can't find @240260280 photo of all his cars covered in his driveway, Nova Scotia I think. Did find ol' Blue pretty deep.

They watch me struggle to crank my old br600, 2009 model. It won't hold fuel so pull pull pull but when it starts it does fine. It needs a $65 carb and when I put that on I'm putting this new one on my mantle!

Best present ever! My neighbors, young money makers with 2 young babies that i took under my wing, helping in their yard and feeding their animals just dropped of my present. I'm speechless... There really are Christmas miracles.

smell of gas inside car
Raw gas smell or burnt exhaust would be a good tell.

I've watched my Dad whack the solenoid with the handle end of a big screwdriver and it fixed it for how long I'm not too sure. If it's an older starter clean the contacts and make sure the small wire up top seats onto the terminal good and tight. All of the connections while your bent over. I've read shining the ground metal on the starter fixed one. The black one from the battery to the starter mount bolt. Good luck!

I'm somewhat anxious about this drop in temp. Haven't had the problem since 1989, now it's back. Hopefully there will be no damage if I just stay home. No early morning drives for me. Stay safe friends and have merry Christmas.

Guess what made my 51 year old car stop working after driving it for 22 years without a problem?
That something I do every single time I have my hood up, click that light on. Strange habbit, strange guy but I feel like the plastic toggle won't break if I use it regularly. So far, so good. I didn't know they have the extra wire under them until I saw one for sale on Ebay. Instructions and owner's manuals have never meant much to me.

Re bleed needed?
Looks like the earlier ones are harder than my '72 was? I found some threads for you to read over when you can. https://www.google.com/search?q=240z+brake+booster+threaded+adjustment+classiczcars.com&rlz=1C1BOFA_enUS494US494&oq=240z+brake+booster+threaded+adjustment+classiczcars.com&aqs=chrome..69i57j0i546l5.29977j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

When my booster went bad the pedal was hard to push down. Just throwing that in the mix...

Still struggling with car at idle after 8 years
I've got some 12 year old bourbon that was barreled when that thread started.

Strands vs single wire. Great idea!

If the consoles not in your chokes handle isn't secured, right? My 1st 240 I didn't know any better and left the choke pulled back (nozzles down) all the time in my garage. Why stress the choke cables? When they're down they are constantly refilling with fuel I figured out finally. About explotarded my garage apartment.

Do a deep charge on you're battery. Kind of sounds like starter troubles?

saturday night music thread
Recent activity on here reminded me of this song. Good song, don't know the lyrics though so if it's some goofy song well..."it's me, it's me, it's Ernest T".

- what happens when safety comes last...
I do now after a simple oil change proved tomorrow isn't always the same as today. After using a floor jack to get under mine I went for the oil catch pan. My car rolled back and fell off the jack hitting the very front of the oil pan. I have a badly dented oil pan to look at the rest of my life thankfully. - what happens when safety comes last...
