cruzer Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 Hi Guru's I have 260z (2 seater) with a E36 manifold and SU carbs (3 screw tops, 4 screw float bowl's) that came with the car all disconnected on a L28 engine. the previous owner has disconnected everything and let it all go bad. I am going to rebuild everything to make sure it all works right. But before I start, need to figure out how it all connects. I had a rough go at putting it all together reading lots of articles/images from google and Haynes manual. But still struggling. Can someone please help me with this? 1. Is this connected right? 2. Is this connected right? 3. Is this connected right? 4. What is this connection used for? Where does it go? 5. This was connected like this. No idea what this does. 6. What is this connection used for? Where does it go? 7. What is this connection used for? Where does it go? 8. Not sure why its connected like this. Any idea's? 9. What is this connection used for? Where does it go? 10. What is this connection used for? Where does it go? Does anyone in Vic has the same setup? Impatient1 1 Quote
Enzo Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 1: Yes, 2:Yes, 3: Yes, 4: Brake Booster, 5: Not sure. 6 and 7, flow through water to warm carbs,9Noone ever uses these). 8: usually to distributor vacuum cannister (Vacuum advance). Block spare off. 9: Vent to air cleaner back plate. There will be another one on the second carb fuel bowl. 10: PCV (Positive crankcase ventilation) connected to the front of the block below the headers. David Quote
