    He's in Oklahoma, you're in Washihgton. You might be better off trying to do something more local to you.

    That's how I've always done it when using a floor jack.
  3. I can tell you from experience that it works. I have a tool that's actually designed to remove hydraulic lifters but it also works for removing pilot bushings. When I get one that's really hard to remove, I resort to the axle grease/clutch tool/hammer routine. Us old timers seem to know the tricks like that one. bob m, my apologies if you're not an old timer.

    This is the point at which this needs to drop. I'll only say one more thing. You say "I don't have an attitude". Actually, you do. You did the name calling by calling me a jerk whereas all is did was repeat your 'acting like a arse' comment. I didn't 'put you down' anymore than anyone else did. Chalk it up. You read a much more sinister intent from my posts than was intented. It's not that serious. Let it go.

    Fine. You win. 2 to 1. I'm an arse and a jerk and you're just an arse. Enough name calling. I hope you find your parts.
  6. He already did. (I'm on that site also.)
  7. That's the anti stall dashpot. Also if you have a California car, the altutude switch could also cause what you describe.

    Let's see: you come on a site, likely set the record for resurrecting the oldest thread ever, also hyjacking the thread on top ot that, offer to sell us something we can get for free, and the cop an attitude when that's all pointed out to you? Now, who's acting like an arse?
  9. That car has been discussed of virutally every Z oriented site including Japanese Nostalgic Car and Nico Club.
  10. I had to look up 'slizzard' and I wouldn't have had a clue about a G6 if not for this video and Tony's explainaion. The only G6's I'm familar with are the musical chord or the Pontiac........

    It's also nice to have a real paper version of the FSM. The Xenon download is fine for printing out sections etc. and many of them, like the 1978 are actually the same copy that Courtesy Parts puts on a CD. Free is better than 'wasn't too expensive' IMO. And to the guy that awakened this 7 year dead thread: those cd's are available for much less than the $75 you claim to have paid for them (if that's true, they saw you comming/the often misattributed P.T. Barnum theory!), and even less than the $50 you said you'd sell them for and on top of that, as stated, all of the info on them is available free on the internet.
  12. Might be another three years.........

    The gauge goes inline between the outlet of the fuel filter and the fuel rail. If you have the 1977 FSM the test procedure is on page EF-58. I tried to scan it but since my 77 manual is a copy of a copy of a copy (etc.), it doesn't come out too clear.
  14. Factory Service Manual.
  15. IIRC, RC Engineering is in Torrance which is about 75 miles away from me. The shop I linked to, Oside Tiger, is closer to me in Murrieta so I used them whenever I needed fuel injection stuff.
  16. I had two of those transmissions, one in my Z and one in my 810. Actually one was from an 83 ZX and one was from an 84 RWD Maxima, but they both returned to center properly from any position.
  17. He's looking for pintle caps, not connectors. Try here. They show service kits that include the caps but I reacall buying just the caps from them a few years ago so you might try contacting them.
  18. You're trying to be facetous...right?

    Nice touch....:stupid:
  20. sblake01 replied to rpmszcar's post in a topic in Help Me !!
    That's a bit harsh, don't you think? I had to look in your profile to find out what year car you have. It would have been a little easier had you stated that in your post. A word to the wise: you won't get much help around here if you display that type of attitude....just sayin'..........
  21. sblake01 replied to zkid's post in a topic in Help Me !!
    Is that what that is?
  22. sblake01 replied to rpmszcar's post in a topic in Help Me !!
    The info you're asking for is in the Air Conditioning section of the FSM. The page I noted in my other post is one of many in that section that shows how the magnet valves should be connected.

    Try this link.

    Those are magnet valves. They control vacuum for the fast idle control (air conditioning) and the opening/closing of the mode doors under the dash for heating/air conditioning. Like Steve said, look in the FSM for the diagram, page AC-12.
