Low Octane Fuel and Knocking
I have driven it only 1300 miles since I got the car. I have been all over the place from 87 octane to 94 octane. I am trying to figure out if the gas gauge works so I often top off the tank for fear of running out of gas. It seems to read near empty a lot sooner than I would expect. So I end up mixing grades. But with gas prices skyrocketing, I have been getting 87 octane recently. This run on only seems to happen now that I stick with 87. Thanks

Oh My...
That sure is different!

Low Octane Fuel and Knocking
Maybe this is the wrong place to post this, but here goes. I am using 87 octane and when I drive my 240z for about 45 minutes to work and then turn it off, the car continues to run for a little while. Every once in a while it gives a rather loud backfire then finally comes to a stop. Should I be using highedr octane?

Car Cover - Any Thoughts
Unfortunately I am going to have to move my Z out of the garage and into the driveway. I think I need to get a cover for it. Since I live in the north, it will get snowed on. Does anyone have any suggestions on which brands and/or types would be the best get? Thanks.

Car Seat Replacements - New Z owner
Thanks for the input. I have decided to use replacement covers. I got the first one on OK. I am still trying to get one of the screws off of the other seat bottom so I can recover it. That screw won't budge. I have soaked it in Liquid Wrench and WD 40. Tapped it with a hammer. It will not budge. Any ideas how to free that one?

Wanted - Various '71 240z parts
Hello all. With all of the various parts cars out there, I am trying to find someone that wants to get rid of some of their extra parts. I would rather give money to someone here than at the junk yard. Here is my current want list. If you have any of these things, please let me know how much you are asking. I am a serious buyer, not just looking around. Thanks for your help. Wiper fluid container Wiper fluid pump on the bottom of the container Wiper fluid tubing and squirters small bolt on the inside of the air cleaner (not the one that you can screw the wing nut in) power antennea glove box locking mechanism metal piece that goes on the front bumper (one of two bumper guards) hood release handle silver cover that goes on the passenger door pull to cover the bolt clothers hanger hook and screw plastice pieces to hold plastic interior part around the small side windows metal that goes on the inside of the car, right inside the door (over the carpet) as soon as you get in the car (needed for both sides) If you have this stuff - I sure could use your help. I am new in this 240z game, sorry to be so needy. I am in it for the long term though and I am looking forward to getting to the point where I can help others.

Rubber and Hoses Replacement question
I need to replace all of the rubber hoses - well all of the rubber period. What is the best way to oreder these parts. I can order them one at a time. I thought if someone sold a kit, it would be a lot easier. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

Thanks for all of the input. I will start the process of searching for some good used seats. When I find some, I will let you all know how it turned out.

What is involved in switching out the rollers? Is that something a begining car guy can do with some muscle (have that) or is that welding type stuff?
-
Car Seat Replacements - New Z owner
My 240z needs to get some new seats. I have read all of the seat posts. It seems like many different seats will fit. My problem is that I can not weld and I am on a tight budget. What seats can I just swap out with out doing any additional work to fit them in my car. I know that I can use other 240z seats. It seems like I can also use 260z and 280z seats. Does anyone know of any other seats that I can do a swap without doing any alterating? Thanks.

Speedo Bouncing
I will try these steps but I think my cable is worse off then what I have read. It seems as if a squirrel or something chew through the rubber and the metal wire around the cable. Should I just try to get a new cable? Does anyone have an idea of how much they go for? Thanks.
