When I restored my 240 about 10 years ago I took the precaution of having hsrdened valve seats fitted. Now the cars has only done a few thousand miles since. In the past couple of weeks it develpoed a tapping noise in number 5 cylinder. Yesterday it turned into a loud knock and went off a...

My 240 has 3 screw wide tab carbs but on one of the carbs this screw is missing. Does it serve any useful purpose other than limit the adjustment of the mixture screw?

I'm getting a light rythmic rattle on the over run and also when the revs are falling back down after reving the engine in my '74 240Z. It sounds like its coming from no1 cylinder. I thought maybe a piece of valve had broken off and was rattling round in there. I lifted the cylinder head off...

Any one know why my avatar no longer appears beside my posts and my name is now in black instead of red?:confused:

What a wonderfully nostalgic pic of new Datsuns lined up at the docks awaiting export. Pity there weren't any Zs though. Wonder how many of these survive:D. All LHD and nothing bigger than a 710 Violet except for the lonesome 610 Bluebird. Can you spot it?

Guess I'll be a fireman when I grow up:rofl:

At last I've finished the installation of electric power steering in my 260Z 2+2. The transformation is unbelievable, like driving a totally different car. Set to its heaviest (least assisted) setting it feels perfect. To be honest this was a much longer job than I had anticipated and...

I was at the post office today in my 240. On my way out this geezer was looking at the car. He looks up and says, "love your car mate, haven't seen a Capri in ages." Insulted :eek: as I was I just couldn't be arsed educating:smash: him so I just smiled and took off.

After my throttle cable conversion my 240 is much more driveable at low speeds but coming on and off the throttle at higher speeds does still seem a little on/off but certainly no worse than before. Could this be because I'm using too light a dashpot oil in the SUs. I just use 3 in 1 oil...

I converted my 240Z to throttle cable today. I was fed up trying to modulate the throttle in slow moving traffic and making jerky progress. There were just too many linkages and joints in the original mechanism to make smooth operation.:( My conversion replaces the complete mechanism from...

I've just got my 260Z out of winter hibernation, actually its been a couple of years:(. The brake pedal is hard as rock. The brakes work ok but with a hefty shove. I've checked servo hoses and connections and all seems fine, plenty of suction at the servo too. Is this a problem inside the...

Has anyone put their Z through the MOT with HID converted headlights? I retained the original headlights on my 240Z but fitted a HID conversion kit. The quality of light is superb but to be honest I'm a bit worried about the amount of light that escapes above the beam pattern. :(The proper...
