    Hey guys, I need a little help. I bought a 240z with a seized engine a few months ago. It's almost time to start it up but I need some help with coolant hoses on the drive side. The car came with a copper pipe from the crossover over pipe to a bent hose to thermostat. It doesn't look right at all. Keep in mind that my engine has triple weber set up. Are the stock carbs or intake watercooled? If so , since I will not need the piping, can bypass that side completely? I was thinking of capping off the thermostat fitting and around the crossover pipe passed the heater core. I think I will still have heat. Unless the poor circulation will kill that thought. Thanks in advance and Excuse my ignorance

    OK I guess I have to fix the clutch system now. I think the master is bad or needs to be bled. Thanks Mark

    Hello again gentleman, so I bought a 72 with a seized engine. I've read it's fairly common from car siting for 10+ years. I've read about the mystery oil and ATF, coke and even read about towing the car and popping the clutch to free up engine. I just received the car last Friday and What I'm trying first is mystery oil soak. It's been 4 days and nothing. I'm thinking about pouring some HOT ATF and trying that. Has anyone had success on freeing up a seized engine? Also, I need ideas for trying to turn the crank pulley instead of just the bolt, I'm worried it will break. Maybe even taking starter out and try turning the flywheel with a pry bar. What do you guys think? Greatly appreciate your time guys

    I have no clue. I can't find a definitive answer, but I'll keep trying to find out

    I got it working. Plug in connector for speakers, I did not use the blue wire on the connector. The single red wire is ignition(key on)power and blue is constant 12v. The radio works!

    Yes I think I do

    Thank you. Ground? Is it grounded through the case when bolted up?

    Please help! I just bought a 72 240Z I have a lot if work to do. The engine is seized from sitting for years and while I'm patiently waiting for the mystery oil to work I decided to try and figure out why the radio does not work. I removed it today and found it was completely disconnected. There is a antenna plug , a 3 pin connector and 2 loose wires ( red and blue ) please help? I think I found a factory connection for the 3 pin, although I am not sure where there other end of the fuse link is. Is it power or ground? And where are the loose red and blue wires? Key on power? And constant or ground? Thanks in advance
