  1. Help please! This oldy cannot figure out which Mallory cap and points he needs. I don’t see any part number that matches ones on Mallory site. Thanks 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  2. Thanks Mark. No seems problem is occassional misfire that got worse. But anyway its all coming back to me. Sanded the distributor cap and rotor points then drove it like a thief.. voila problem gone. Looking to complete the tuneup before the planned rebuild woohoo. Should I stay with this mallory setup? 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  3. Started hapenning at steady highway speed. Yes gas additive cured it weeks ago. Seems worse this time. 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  4. Thanks for the correction. Change in plans. I’ve decided to reuse my E88. 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  5. Exactly my thoughts. Prob due for tuneup. Car came with Mallory. Thanks 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  6. Preferrably 76. Anyone? 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  7. Started last night. Split second misfiring while cruising. This happened weeks ago and gas treatment eliminated it it seems. Could you point me where to start looking? I seem to be getting old for this . Thanks 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  8. Sorry I forgot to take pics when I disassembled it. Does look like its missing some gasket or whatever. Anyway leak stopped. Not sure if retightening the lock ring bolts did it. Also I wet sanded the stain as I couldn’t stand seeing it anymore. Looks normal once again. Thanks 12/70 260 motor, MSD, Weber 40s, 3/2 headers, Twice pipes, Tokico Ilumina, Eibach, 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  9. Furthermore fuel still escaping the tank through the rubber flap. Seems a gasket missing? 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  10. Simple green, claybar, WD40, rubbing alcohol failed. Waiting on a chance to buff. 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  11. Good car wax, Sticker/label remover, Rubbing Compound, Bug n Tar, gasoline 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  12. Tried almost everything. Any suggestions? 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  13. Thank you for the info. Got an early. I’m never lucky with searching. Something for the future maybe. 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  14. Geez. What’s next? Flap retainer? 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  15. Well there were no cheap alternatives. $82 for a stinking cap. I like the locking cap but it’s not perfect.. hips get soaked with fuel. . I’m shallow [emoji4] 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  16. Wow that’s a lot of work for me. Let me see if I decide to keep this car longer. Thank you for the info guys [emoji4]. 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  17. Guess I'll start sanding to expose all rust then treat, let dry completely, reapply matching paint. This sounds OK? 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  18. Thank you. Will look into it. Is it dark in color like POR15? I know I have a few worse spots hidden elsewhere (back of tail lights etc). 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  19. Any way to treat spots like these or leave em? 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  20. Sorry that was months ago. I don’t remember. Might be the Z Store or Z Car Depot. 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  21. Sorry I watched the install (old hands aren’t up to the task at the moment) but I didn’t notice anything that suggests any wiggling. It eliminated the vibration but I noticed I still have some steering wheel play which I have yet to investigate. 12/70 260Z block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 ext oil cooler Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, strut bar
  22. Update: all tie rods (inner and outer) successfuly replaced with right hand thread versions. Thank you all for your help. 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  23. Aside from $100 ones. Are those cheap ones good enough? Thank you 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  24. I think thats the problem. I ordered one of each side but the drivers is left hand thread. So I just ordered another passenger side. Let’s see. 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
  25. So.. I’m still confused. Right inner and right outer should work for the driver’s side? 12/70 2.6 block E88 heads Mallory DCOE40 3/2 Twice pipes Tokico 1, 3/4 in sways, ext oil cooler
