Yet another running rich thread
Ok so i have been flowing this other thread for some time. hopping you would find the trouble as my 76 is some what the same. new injectors new csv new plugs and wires ngk new. mine starts right up when cold. but then is running very rich until it warms up it then is still rich i think just not as bad.the other day day i did find something interesting. right after start up when cold it i would remove the oil fill cap it would run better.after it was warm just the opposite. is there any thing to that.not sure how to link this to the other thread?

Happy to report i took it to Muffler shop. 100.00 later all is good. he was able to remove the other two nuts and drill the broken one out and replace it.he did say it was a PINTA and broke some bits. sounds a lot better now. son says it to quite now so here we go going with the Monza system i think.

280z 76 Exhaust help
Ok where my down pipe connects one stud is broke off. first are the studs SS. the shop says if they are will be hard to drill out. has anyone had to do this. Next the down pipe is there any reason to replace this it looks to be in ok shape. soon i will be replacing the rest of the system maybe with 2" or 2.5" system.looking at the MSA premium system or the monza from BD. any tips would be great thanks.

clutch question
I have a 76 280 4 speed. was working fine when i parked it last summer. the other day went to start it clutch peddle went all the way to the floor nothing there. checked the fluid it was low so i added some no luck. last night tried to bleed it when i opened up the bleeder nothing came out even when my son pumped it. so was thiking master is shot .but after reading some on here and looking at the slave my question is the slave and fork. should the slave piston be out that is how it is was thinking it should be in then when you push on the peddle it should come out.
