Old stand by question for everything but how do the plugs look? Is it no spark or no fuel?

He's been sweating Betty!

BCDD is what I'm leaning to. Does the tach get erratic during these episodes?

I didn't see America/ USA on any levels? Did I miss it or are we cured?

I've seen a small suction type dent puller on FB marketplace I'm thinking about buying. I have a dent in my refrigerator door too I think it would work on. I'll let you know if I buy it.

What do you guys use to protect the tops of the fenders? Mine are soft as a beer can so I have some painters cotton drop cloths I use but I need some magnetic fender covers I guess. Or quit putting my elbows there.

I bet that makes you feel better. The honor system? Oxymoron like model prisoner.

Mine popped open once and I jumped out to shut it without pulling the cable and releasing it completely. I shut the hood on my fingers and was held hostage. Couldn't move enough to pull the handle in the cabin. Stuck in a parking lot locked down by the hood. I had to start yelling for help, I was trapped and it was hurting. Luckily a nice guy came over and pulled the handle, setting me free. I'm super careful about that now because I often drive around with the hood latched but not shut completely. Just another day in my life.

I was on my phone but now that I'm on the laptop with all my pictures I can see the headlight and parking light solder spots and wires from a long time ago. Thanks for the push.

Mine went out and I had to flip the 2 plates over in the combo switch. Years of off/on contact had burnt those plates. Turn them over and they're like new. Rebuild_240Z_combo_switch-1.pdf

Rockauto has ACC kits like just about everyone else so I'd guess they are the best simply by how many are selling them. If you go to rockauto.com you'll find the kit numbers from ACC. Google that but you won't find a better deal by a major supplier. I'd see if MSA has the same number too. Most likely...

And you have an awesome car! I couldn't remember if you switched to the 240 bumpers so I did an image search and your original bumpers look fantastic with the color scheme you came up with plus the way better protection in case of an accidental bump from the rear. I love your car! You set the bar way over my head.

I remember in elementary school we got vaccinated. No choice. The military does it too. The insurance companies should deny payment if you get covid but would not get the vaccine. It's available to anyone now, free too.

I use led in my dome lights, all others are incandescent. I seldom drive at night so it's really a nothing burger for me. Dr 240 showed my or I read it truthfully how to polish the exterior lenses to look like new. They were a dull red now they look new. No melting either!

No detonation at full advance and it runs good? Run it! My 240 is maxed out advance and I even put the chain on #3 hole when I rebuilt the motor. It runs great and loves advance.

Ferg, here's a good read if you're refurbing lights. It's a 240 but some good info in there thanks to @Dr. 240Z

I was able to do mine as the hole assembly. I have an older set of triple beams that I put a railroad spike on and that let me do the cups and rods, caps. Without that added railroad spike it maxed out the triple beams. To get weight off I ground on the outer sides of the rods. Got them all to weigh the same amount of grams. Seems like it was in the 700s maybe? That's almost 2 lbs each. 448 grams per pound.

I think of a survivor as one that's not been wrecked that has original paint, glass and interior. Rebuilt original motor passes too. That's just maintenance like tires and oil changes. My opinion only.

I apologize if I'm repeating myself but these are a great upgrade. They'll take any looseness out of the original setup and by doing that you have less chance of breaking the choke handle. https://zcardepot.com/products/choke-lever-mounting-plate-reinforcement-240z

That's like the difference between fitting and proper.

The surprised one in back. Some cute girl walked by taking pictures and those two shot her the bird screaming obscenities really loud. Embarrassed me. The one on the right is dead, OD'd, the other one is a falling down stumbling drunkard now. Liver's shot.

It's hot out and I'm bored. Scary situation. Did you ever see if it's the front 3 cylinders or the rears that are rough? The front carb runs 1-3, rear 4-6. You may be running on 3 cylinders? The front carb has that vacuum advance nipple that needs to be hooked up or capped off. 3 day weekend boredom. Goodluck with it, I'm sure it's something simple.
