Wow, consider all these "mistakes" and the confusion that must be out there with.....Acura(Honda), Lexus(Toyota), Infinety(Nissan), Plymouth/Dodge(Chrysler), Mercury/Lincoln(Ford) and Chevrolet/Cadillac/Pontiac/Buick(General Motors)....just to name a few past and present examples.

Those damn 72's get me every time! :mad:

Trust me, it works the same for both.

Here's a tip I posted a while back. It always worked for me. Use any bolt that your 14mm wrench/socket will fit and with the float bowl lid upsidedown and level, place the head of the bolt sideways between the float lid and the float itself. Now as you lower the float on to the bolt head, at the point it just touches the bolt, the float tab should now be just touching the needle. If it doesn't, adjust the tab so that it does.

Thanks Carl. I missed that "could be" part in your earlier post.

Will someone help clear up this Nissan vs. Aftermarket thing. In another thread dealing with 8-tracks, Mr Beck states; Here in this thread, the leather/vinyl key case apparently has the part number "80690-E8200". Is this aftermarket or not and why? This number doesn't indicate "locally sourced part - sold though Nissan USA and its Authorized Dealers."

1 check for NOT! edit: Oiluj got here before me...make that 2 checks.

This was sent to me by a friend in the Portland area and thought someone here might be interested in picking these up. (If they're still available that is.) http://portland.craigslist.org/clc/pts/666561509.html

The one I'd recommed is Awesome Z. Doug is a Certified Nissan Master Technician with over 30 yrs experience. http://www.awesomez.org/index.html The one you listed is the other shop I had in mind. :sick:

Which guy & shop? I know of 2 shops here in Houston, one I would highly recommend, while the other I would highly condemn! :eek:

Here's my W.A.G. Bad hose from float bowl to fuel nozzle. (or hose clamps not tight enough)

R.I.P. (Rust In Peace)

EGADS, I've been full house'd :mad: Did you you even open the link? If you had, you'd have seen it's a list of 20+ items that a particular seller has up for auction! So...how much could WHAT be worth? Just a note for the other members, he's added more items including early chrome coat hangers.

Hood bumpers are later version. (Not sure when this new style came about, so I won't say they're Series II only.) Taillight surrounds appear to be painted black, but that could just be the lighting.

I'm ready to go...send me your blanks!

This seller has some nice items. See for yourself. http://motors.search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZmajpickens

The wheels are all wrong. Should be one steel, one turbine and two wire baskets!

Sprinkle a little of this on them!

Stickerman...exactly, that's the "danged if you do" part. So far we got 2 "post it", 1 "inform a friend" and 1 "No, don't post"

The problem is you won't know if it's a members toes until you post it. I've seen it several times where someone links an item only to have a member respond " D*#@ I was hoping no one else had seen that!" Interesting view, just not sure how may others would want to increase the potential bidding pool on an item they were really interested in.

Every now and again, I run across an item on eBay that is either rare or hard to find. Sometimes these are listed in the wrong category, mis-spelled or just listed in a way that most folks might miss with a basic search. If I decide not to pursue the item, I hesitate to post a thread here alerting the members to the auction fearing the "danged if you do, danged if you don't" While I think I might be helping someone in desperate need, I might also be stepping on another persons toes who was hoping it wouldn't get much attention and thus get a great deal. So......Do I or do I not? What's the general concensus here?
