Makes me wish I had kept my 1972 Skyline 2000 GT I brought back to the US back in 1982. I had it street legal in the US with a Nevada title:stupid: We all make mistakes...some of them we should have shot ourselves over tho:angry:

Does anyone have any idea as to why my amp meter fluctuates and all the lights brighten and then dim repeatedly when at idle and then it dissapears when I raise the engine rpm? My first guess is a combination of alternator and voltage regulator. Am I on the right track? Please help me!!!

I fall into the middle catagory. I am a manager in Retail Sales and just bought my 72 Z. It is in pretty good shape for a 31 year old car with a tight motor. No smoke one small leak so far and some rust that I hope I can get replaced with sheet metal before it consumes the whole car!

I just did this job on my 72 Z and got all the fuel lines from NAPA auto parts and got a six inch spring that fit snugly in the 5/8 line and have not had a problem since with fuel vapors in my car but I still can't fill my tank more than 10 gallons so I am thinking that one of the vent outlets on the tank is plugged:angry:

What else can I check? All the light bulbs have been replaced and work, I have a new turn signal flasher, I have put a meter on the fuse block and all checked out, I even bought a used (guarranteed to work) switch and I still don't have any turnsignals:angry: What else can I check or am I left with turning the car over to a shop that specializes in auto electrical systems?Please...please...please help:stupid:

I need some quick help:stupid: The PO pulled the stock turnsignal flasher and put in some aftermarket one and I don't know what color wires go to which connector on the stock flasher unit. Please help? Does it matter? How do I tell the difference? BYW I have a 72 240Z build date 4/72 Thanks in advance!!! David

Thanks I'll give it a try David

I have read a couple of replys where guys are rebuilding the T/S switches. Is there a step by step write-up that explains it for those of us who are electrically challenged? I have all my lights working except my turn signals and dash lights. I also have a new flasher. The hazards work fine just not the dash or T/S. any suggestions? TIA David

Has anyone tried to repair a small crack where the fuel supply 5/16 tube comes out of the tank? If so how did you go about it. I just got done replacing all of the vent lines and fuel lines up to the metal fuel lines and after I got done, I went and filled up the tank with only 12 gallons of gas... and found the leak. I might have put about 4 gallons of gas in to get me to the gas station so hopefully it is only a leak now:( Any help you all could give would be appreciated. btw, the tank looked real good inside David

I have thought about making my own I was hoping to find one that isn't broken,cracked, or otherwise destroyed. The PO hacked this one up to put in a p.o.s. cd player:angry: I don't know if they are. If someone else knows, please speak up Thanks for the responses David H '72 240Z Sill stock but working on it?

I am looking to replace the center dash panel, you know the one that covers the climate controls and radio:( Does anyone know where to purchase one for a respectable price? TIA David

thanks.

I am new to the list and have recently purchased a 72 240Z and as much as i would like along with everyone else to get an S20 motor to put in it, I would be happy if someone new where I can download a good picture of the S20 motor. Thanks for the help, David
