  1. agean....your not trying to use my engine as a gunie pig are you? I read this can cause severe engine damage....ha ha Ill give it a go in the lab and get back to you all:-)
  2. OK, long time since posts, I have been away a bit. I have replaced all elec parts, rotor, plugs, leads dizzy cap and plugs. In addition I have run decoke through the car. The timing is set and the idle is wound back. It has made a big difference but still does it occasionaly. I think the "carbon in the cylinder hypothisys is correct". Great advise from all, I am very appreciative but it looks like I will pull the head off and give it a clean up......gives me something to do at least. And yes it is an elec dizzy.
  3. Gents, the car is still registered and I transfered the rego from another NSW guy so no prob there. Your advise is a relief as the guys at the mechanics shop told me it was a big issue. I was skeptical to say the least as the car was regoes, is regoed and the numbers match. Still would like to get a blank and put it on. regards, Tim
  4. Hey all, to put it bluntly.....my Z doesn't have a complience plate. All the numbers match, i.e: car and rego but I think the guy who sprayed it lost it!! Is there an issue with this? And if so what can I do? can I get a blank and put the numbers in it? Tim
  5. you can get them new from all Z spares for about $150
  6. no...I thought TBScobraz had bought it. Tim
  7. hey guys try this address, a fair bit cheeper too. http://www.datsunrestore.com/catalog.html This website is a saviour. I havent tried it but they all look good to go. Tim

  9. Hey mate, thanks for the reply, I have one now. thanks , Tim
  10. All done, Coil changed, TDC checked physically, its now at 5 degrees. incidently the vacume advance isnt working so ill get a new one. Am currently running the equivilent of ATF through the system, just a little scared about what ATF will do to the carbies. I spoke with Stewart Wilkins and he reckons I should just wind the idle right back...so Ill do that today. If this doesn't work ill try the ATF. thanks, Tim

  13. Hey mate, can you freight it to Sydney? If so Ill take the F54 Block. Second one is......I'll also take the box if you can freight that as well. I guess freight would be under $250. PM me. regards, Tim
  14. OZ001 that was directed at you. I live in SYD and if it is an F54 block I will gladly take it off your hands.....pick up this saturday...possibly this wednesday if its in the right location in SYD and for the right price. If its an E88 head all the better. my number iz zero four 3 8 then one 8 two and finally zero 97. regards, Tim
  15. Ill take the block only off your hands for $100. Of it has an E88 head Ill take it for $200. Pick up Sunday. Tim

    What's it worth?

    All Cool, Well to answer your question. You might get $150 max for just the block..i.e no head. Tim
  18. hey mate what type of head is it, im after an E88 head and an F54 block.
  19. Mate, Im pretty sure warren at all Z parts can get a new one for you. Tim
  20. hmm yeah just scoping the scene. I can get one else where for about $800....that seems the going price....thtas retail so I thought a private sale would be a fair bit less. All good though thanks for the input. regards, Tim

    What's it worth?

    Hey mate Ill take the F54 off you for $100, I am in Randwick. Where are you? Tim
  22. Up to about $500 Gav Zed. What are they worth?
  23. Hey guys, A long shot but I'll throw it out there. Does anyonne have an LD28 crank that they can part with?!!!! regards, Tim
  24. Hey, sorry to bust in on the thread but what is the block and head number? Tim
  25. Ok all good advice, Ill TDC physicaly. The plugs are carboned too. The secondry winding in the coil isnt reading the correct ohmage either. The primary seems fine. Ill change the coil. Check TDC and then........repost. Regards, Tim
