  1. I received fiberglass fenders via GH years back. they were boxed pretty well, but still got hammered on the trip. I refuse to use that for shipping anymore.
  2. bleed the master for the rears first, then rebleed at the back.

    Mine behaved similarly, bleeding the master cylinder fixed it. hth, Jeremiah
  4. Been a long time since i was here.. My 260 has been sitting in my garage since 2007, only moved a few times as life got busy (and i now drive a Lexus IS-F, which put the Z on the back burner). Decided to bring her back and get some cruises in- of course the passenger wheel cylinder leaked and drained the MC, the driver side was a rusted hulk, etc. Long story short, she is running well, and has all new brake hardware- ready for NY inspection Monday. Can't wait to take a nice ride through wine country again! Jeremiah

    i had a loose connection at the coil, or bad ballast resistor that would do that long ago.

    how far are you willing to go? Kurt Thiel has a shop in Canadaigua, NY. You can email some of the board at zccr.net for suggestions too. Good luck!

  10. Don't wizz on a flat rock.. -dear old Dad, as i was tattling on my elder brotherss as a yout.
  11. Try Bruce Palmer.. http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10207&highlight=bruce+palmer He is the Ztherapy answer man. My Z's are out in 14F cold, waiting another 2 months, and my mind is going blank... Try a private message to him if he doesn't see this thread.
  12. i'd say $25. Do you take Paypal, i'll give you 75 'cause i like you....
  13. Hmmm So, if you pull the covers from the float bowls, there is plenty of fuel in both? Fuel is getting through the filter at the banjo fitting, and through the needle/seat assembly? It sounds like it could be way too lean? When you try to apply any throttle, the added air coming in leans it out so much it stalls? Will it rev with the choke applied? How many turns out do you have the mixture screws at the bottom of the nozzles? This is one i wish i could go "hands on"! Do you own the Ztherapy carb tape? Just reread what you wrote- as far as "default Jet Height"- whaddya mean? You mean adjusting mixture, or how you set the needles? Keep plugging, we're gonna fix this!
  14. Huh. Sounds like you've addressed all you can think of. Has the carb adjustment been toyed with? Does the choke on/off change anything? Have you checked the floats in the carb bowls (not bowels, eww...)? Seems unlikely both floats would crap out at the same time.. How lean/rich are/were they set? Keep us informed, Jeremiah
  15. Glad to see the mail list is back- ThankZ Mike!
