Cant believe i didnt label these. any idea which is drivers side and which is passengers?

ok. i understand now. I never moved the key any. In fact, i got some pliers and it sees like it wont move. If i can get some better images once i get all the old seal out i will post.

ok, i am sorry i am a little ignorant on this but what do you mean "notice the key in the keyway"

got it. new seal is on the way. thanks

got it all back on. Whew. thanks

heres an image of my work so far. does this look right? The rubber doesnt quite look right to me. I really dont want to take the timing cover and everything back off again....

ok. thanks. no that was a stock image i found on the internet

gotya. thanks. so i am thinking if gently tap it in here then put on crank wheel with O ring already in?

I got the cover back on but i cant seem to see where the black O ring goes.... Please tell me its for use only on the 260 or 280.

Ok, will try this out. You are a big help. Much appreciated

thanks. this looks over my pay grade...LOL. I looked into the ports and and not sure how to tell if its "closed" they all look about the same to me? would taking the valve cover or oil pan off to look help? i assume cylinder 1 is the one frontmost toward radiator?

Just got in new timing cover. Once the 4 bolts of oil pump are out does it and the spindle just slide apart? I dont want to force anything and break it off.... thanks

yep. her feedback is low b/c she has only sold like a 3 things in the last year and 1 was a negative. Looks like the rest of seller history is solid.

saw there are some nice looking rebuilts on Ebay. $400. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Datsun-240Z-carbs-rebuilt-polished-twin-round-top-SU-carburetors/284191994686?hash=item422b29b33e:g:4gQAAOSwraBgMaIL Seems like a good deal...i just paid 699 at Ztherapy

I just got word my Z therapy carbs are on the way. There is a $200 core charge. My old carbs round tops, arent bad. Are they worth more than 200? would you keep them, get the core refund or sell on Ebay

no big deal. their explanation was what was really odd though. They said the increase was due to item weighing more than the 1.6kgs listed and expected. So i asked how much does the final item weigh. Answer: 1.6 kg...

tried to order from amayama. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/13501a8600 says 46.95 for s/h. upon payment they then demanded $112 just for s/h instead, seems a little crooked to me. Just FYI

got it. after research looks like it does need a damper pulley, not a big deal. however, even with that what i read it its likely to break. If anyone has a 70-72 harmonic balancer to sell or knows a place thats sells them reasonable please message me. thanks

Thanks for this thread. I was having some similar questions and this was very helpful

Yahtzee. its off. so you are right. it is 27mm. I got a 27mm "torque" style which apparently has thicker socket walls. Ran to Ace hardware and got a regular 27mm with the new impact wrench i just bought and it came off with no issue at all. Do the remaining pulley come off with the timing cover? or are they just compressed on and will come off now with some elbow grease. thanks guys

ok went and bought an electric impact wrench that said 1050ft/lbs which should be more than enough. I had a regular, non impact, socket, 1-1/16 that fit. i tried it and it blew apart. I have a 27mm impact like someone here recommended but it wont come close to fitting in the hole to even get to the nut. Is the 27mm the right size?

its out of the car. air hose is about 15' long. Gonna Wait and see what SteveJ says but maybe i will go with an electric wrench like https://www.harborfreight.com/85-amp-corded-12-in-heavy-duty-extreme-torque-impact-wrench-64120.html

thanks. below is a cheap air wrench i have and tried. as for hose its a 300psi campbell hausfeld. air compressor is little small but POrter & Cable, i think from Lowes or Home Depot....The PSI yesterday was at 120PSI and bolt wasnt budging https://www.walmart.com/ip/Hyper-Tough-1-2-Aluminum-Impact-Wrench/751983391

My Pneumatic air wrench is around 375ft/lb and wouldnt take off the crankshaft nut. Any idea how much is needed to get that thing off? would the one below work? https://www.amazon.com/AEROPRO-TOOLS-2-Inch-Composite-1000FT-LB/dp/B08KF9SP3J/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?dchild=1&keywords=1%2F2+In.+Composite+Air+Impact+Wrench&qid=1613222206&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEyOTZKTzRBWTBZUEpMJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNDk3OTIyMTJCS0tMNUMwRDFOSCZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUExMDE5NzI4SFVRUEQ1QzVSSVBBJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfYXRmJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==#customerReviews
