280~Master

Here is a thread that sould help you out on this problem. Also don't forget the search located in the top right it will help out a lot. http://classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19034&highlight=fuel+tank+por15

that 77 tank will fit in the slot but your fuel pump will be different. On a 77 the pump is in the tank. Your 75 has the fuel pump behind the passenger tire. This would be a little work to convert but it could work. Look for a tank thats from 74 to 76. 260 or 280.

Well or luck ran out Will the guy will not be here after today. So no go on the bushings. I do have some good news for us. I now have 3 1ft sections of 1 inch brass. If we can make them for ourself then we will be good. I also got a nice 3 ft section to make alternator adjusting brackets. Maybe we can get all this together and make up some fun items.

Sounds like a deal. Thanks Will if you were here I would give you a nice cold beverage.

Alfadog, Wish I could give you some help here but you have one of those foreign cars. To try and help you out on this situation I would think the button would sit on the ring. I have seen horn buttons look like they won't fit but they end up sitting in there just right. Now I had a after market wheel that the horn button just pushed in the center of the ring. Yes it would move but only if I tried to move it with my fingers. As far as your horn sounds like a grounding problem. You have to close that circuit for the horn to blow. Did it work with the last wheel? If you can get a couple of pics maybe we can guide you staright so you can blow your own horn.

Will, If you could also get the measurment of the ears on a type b tranny that would be good to. Just for insurance I am going to take in a shifter and a pin so we can get it right. How mant would you like 1,000 or so? I am going to try and get at least 6 sets out of him before he leaves.

Ok I am not as smart as the people on the earth but I do posses some type of skills. Wish I knew what they are. As you said Will the dial indicator is for trueness and the vernier caliper is great for measuring parts. I guess I got confused a little. If you can find that vernier caliper thingy then could you run some number my way? I will talk to the guy at work and see what he meant by using a dial indicator. He might have the vernier caliper that has a dial on it like in your first picture. P.S. He will only be able to get these made this week after that he will be out of the shop for quite a bit of time.

Here is a pdf of the measurements that would be needed to make the bushings. FAX_.pdf

I am going to have a friends make some new bushings for my modified shift lever. Does any one have the measurements of stock shifter bushings. I am getting a set of brass ones made up for me by a friend. I would prefer that they be measured by a dial indicator due to the importance of them fitting just right. I have the door pin trick in my shifter now bt these would be free to me and anyone who could help.

I am running 134a

So I reversed the way the receiver/drier was facing and replaced the busted line with some steel braided line and recharged the system to see what would happen. Well to my suprise it worked. :eek: Not the coldest A/C I have ever felt but I got to ride around with the windows up today in 95 Degree weather with out breaking a sweat. So far so good, I would like to thank those who offered help in this time of need. Now to just tint the windows :devious:

Will, I am going to take you up on this offer sometime this week or first thing next week.

Inline Wish I had a manifold set. I put two cans in and it ran fine and got cold for about a minute and then it went POP. I am still wondering which way the drier should go. Should the outlet side of the drier be going to the intake hose of the evaporator? If so I did have this backwards while doing this. Should have checked on it first instead of trusting the way it was installed by the PO.

Its the dashpot and it helps the engine come to a softer idle when the foot is released off the throttle. Don't worry about it. It is probly bad by now so remove it and drive on. Not having it won't hurt anything.

Is there an A/C person that has some help for me?

I see the in and out on the drier. I am wondering how it goes on there. I did charge it from the low side. I know its the low due to my compressor saying SUC on one valve and DIS on the other valve. I ended up getting a charge on it but it went to about 100PSI and then POP goes the line headed into the evaporator right before the expansion valve. I am wondering if my expansion valve is broke. I did get cold air for about 1 minute or so before the line poped. Glad I have new extra high pressure steel braided lines for all this.

Ok I have the york dealer installed A/C system. Was wondering my receiver has in and out on the barbed tube ends. What way do I place it. Does the inside face the condencer and the outside face the evaporator or Does it go the other way around? The compresor pushes into the condencer and then out to the drier then out to the expanstion valve then into the evaporator then back to the compressor. Is this right? Another quick question. What would cause the system to hold to much presure? Like 100PSI instead of 25 to 30 PSI. untitled.bmp

My brake light on the tach is stuck in the on possition. I know it is the relay under the passenger seat that is bolted on the front left side. When I tap on it the light goes out. Does anyone have an extra in a parts car or a part number for this item or has anyone ever replaced this with a different type of relay? Thanks, John

240SX, I have a new fuel pump. Its alot louder than the hum of that. May have to raise the rear end up and take a look. Going to change the fluids any way this weekend. Hope I can find it. Got it narrowed down to half-shaft, Rear diff, or tranny.

Tom, I also said wow! thats what that mounting spot was for. Wish I could help but don't have one and I just seen one for the first time.

Where is the fill plugs on the transmition and the rear diff located at. I know they are up on top, but where abouts on top? I have a 4 speed and a R200 Diff. Going to due a big oil and lub change this weekend.
