2ManyZ's, I appreciate the timely reply. Ther is absolutely no pressure to the clutch pedal. It is presently sitting on the floor, so I'm sure the master or slave has leaked. Another thing I'm trying to figure is where the safety switch is to keep the car from starting when the clutch is not depressed. Is it in the interior or underneath, maybe even in a housing. I haven't been able to start it for a year, kills me to have it down. I got a car cover but no garage and live in the Ct. area, so I would like to at least have it running, normally it's just the summer car, but this year she may have to deal with the elements. This thing is such a cream-puff, gun-metal blue, 47,000 when we got it from a dealer, the original owner had traded it in. I had an identical 83 with a rotted frame, and was actually thinking of restoring it when we heard about the other for 5,000.00 out the door! Couldn't believe my luck and she deserves better than to sit a year. Time to get off my #ss.Thanks for the help, I'll keep you posted, Pete. P.S. Next time I'll tell you about my first 280 rolling off my stone wall, nose in the street, #ss end in the air and pics to prove it. Great site, by the way!

Looking for basic info on my 1983 280 ZX. It's been down for almost a year, just no time. 58,000 original miles, purchased from dealer in 2000. I'm not the mechanical type but I would appreciate any info. Thanks, Yankee Pedlar.
