    The plugs did look a bit black. I've been cleaning them up as they are not so old. I see what you mean about the cold starting, thanks

    280ZX - Advice for Starting Problem

    Hi, I would like to ask if anyone in the group can give some advice on fault finding, for a starting problem with my 280ZX. Over the winter I usually start the car up and back it out of the garage every couple of weeks. About a month ago I switched the engine on (fine), off and back on again...

    Smart Looking 260Z 2+2

    It did have the sunroof. I had it broken into once, they cut the sunroof to get to the door lock. I'm not sure what type valence it had, but this photo shows it better, perhaps you know?

    Smart Looking 260Z 2+2

    Anyone know the story on this 260Z 2+2 over the years? I owned it from 1998-2001. I sold it to Geoff Gayle ? if I got his name right. Its popped up for sale on ebay 20 odd years later looking very nice! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/115895413290?hash=item1afbe7aa2a:g:5xYAAOSwcoxk5KiI

    280zx Coolant leak

    I finally managed to get a used one off a guy on facebook ZX forum. He sent it USPS and it went from USA to UK to Saudi Arabia back to USA then to UK.. how bizarre . I'm going to clean it up and give it a go and hopefully it doesn't leak.
