  1. I put these in my rental house after I went up on the breaker amps. Work great. Microwave and all kinds of other crap ladies use on the countertops. I think there's 8 per strip. Like a big ole surge protecter from Lowes. $20?
  2. I won't even put stickers on my cars for that reason. The Zs are well known around town but that Camry and my D21 pickup are getaway cars.
  3. I think he has the easy way confused with the hard way. Hard way=remove head Easy way= leave head on

    I've zip tied gauges to the driver's wiper blade and ran my coolant temp tweak inside the cabin to adjust while driving but I'll be damned if I can figure out how you got that gauge to hover like that. Are you some kind of space alien?

    I got one of the last Bosch pumps in 2011 or 2012 from Advance Auto, $250. Then Beck Arnley started making them if I remember right.

    Your idea of T ing off one should work. 2 Ts and some hose. That sounds good. I like hoes.

    Here's a decent pic showing both.

    Okay... There's one on the driver's side that went to the egr. In my pic above circled in yellow. The one you're talking about is on the passenger's side of the throttle body and goes the vacuum advance dashpot and the canister. Here's where it connects to the throttle body... Here's the T... Canister connection... I can do better later. I'm helping my neighbor right now so let me know if you want better. Cliff

    @Jeff G 78 kinda sorta looks like you are thinking?

    HVAC allows folks to live in the damndest places. Never been there but the one's that have tell me I've got it worse with the humidity here. I had a tshirt from the French quarter, "it's not the heat-it's the stupidity".

    I'll have to get a picture. Give me an hour, not near the car at the moment.

    I haven't a clue. I plugged the hose under the TPS circled in yellow to get my car to run after removing egr crap. I don't remember it having anything to do with the distributor or canister? Seems like one of the two hoses off the egr went there and the other to that thermal vacuum switch on the warming plate. It's been a long time and I've forgotten, sorry.

    I had to plug that hose when I deleted the egr stuff so I'm gonna say that's it. Vacuum diagram

    Payback for Buddy's flatulence throughout the night. He eats so fast his food isn't digested enough until about 1a.m then he lets them rip. He used to sleep opposite of me, his head at my feet and the fart cannon at my head. Covid-19 to dog poots.... Now that's my flatulence written out.

    Look for the vertical line molded in the cap. That's #1. http://atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/distributor/correction.jpg

    I just connected with some of my best friends via text message. We are going to our favorite Mexican restaurant Friday night and eat, I mean get falling down drunk and eat nachos and salsa, to celebrate our vaccination and the positive effects it has made on our lives. Getting back to normal is a mind bending thing for me. I'm so happy! (hopefully it'll last).

    I have mine at full advance and it runs fine. By that I mean loosened the bolt and turned it all the way clockwise. Fyi, I'm not any kind of trained mechanic just seat of the pants and what sounds good to my ears. You seem curious to figure it out which is good in my opinion.
  18. Has the ring around the bottom or top of the seal somehow come loose or slid out of it's seat? I think that cheap compressor would work. Hook the bottom hooks on the lowest ring of the spring and the upper on the retainer. Use a small telescoping magnet to catch the valve retainer clips. I think it could be done with a big socket on the retainer and rubber hammer, magnet to catch the clips. I've read that before. Good luck with it Alex.

    I'm sorry for not reading up the thread but something that I did once was put the valve cover gasket on upside down. There's a difference at the front and if you get it wrong it'll leave a little gap on the thermostat housing side. Sorry again I don't know about the hissing, could be a snake up in there?

    I forgot that you all switch to a higher price "summer blend" to reduce smog. That's a run around for more profit I think, charge higher for cranberry sauce at Thanksgiving kind off thing. I'm glad I won't live a whole longer. I love life but it's getting really hard to stay positive these days. I'm getting screwed every which a way it seems and our leaders don't seem to care. Reverse immigration? like a reverse mortgage.

    My first and last electric contraption, I hope.

    Did? Still do. Although only half the seasoning packet at my age. Z parts are expensive!
  23. That's one of the many free FSM downloads this forum has.

    Just topped off at $2.75 a gallon. Most others are at $2.85 now. Six 2 sided pumps all shut down but one. They're learning not to be greedy finally. No gas and nobody stops for beer or milk.
