thanks. ordered the starter you reccomended. hope it works out and its not something more serious.

nobody?

Hi everyone. Whenever I start my Z it would have a terrible grinding sound like the starter is clashing with the flywheel. I replaced the starter with a kragen reman unit and it still has the grind but would get the car started. I tried starting it again the other day and all I hear is a whirring sound like the starter gear is just spinning. The teeth on the flywheel look fine the last time I checked before putting the new starter on. Should there be a plate between the starter and the trans? I notice there looks like a plate should be there since my flywheel is partially exposed. My neighbor suggested I try putting some washers between them thinking that the gear is being pushed out too far. Im also thinking of scrapping this starter and buy a gear reduction starter off datsun parts but its pretty pricey. what do you guys think? So pretty much Im stumped and the car is sitting in my garage. I tried whacking the starter with a hammer since I have a life time warranty anyways and it actually got the car started. However that only worked on that occasion and does currently start. Could it be the 240z starter is too weak to crank my 3.1 stroker? Any helpful insight is appreciated. thank you

Would the only culprit be the hoses on the tank? I need to do more research as I dont really know what components make up the fuel tank on these cars. It was kind of dark the last time I saw it leaking or should I say pouring. I put in about 4-5 gallons once it started spilling out. It looks like it drips off somewhere in the middle more towards the filler side. Im going to jack it up this weekend and take a better look.

So I stripped my honda and sold all the parts to buy my Z. The owner told me there was a few issues I needed to deal with on the car. I noticed while trying to fill up after a certain amount the car will leak a good amount of fuel from under the tank. Filler hose cracked? Another issue are the brakes. There is pretty much no pressure in the brake pedal. The fluids in the reservoirs are pretty low. I have to bottom out the pedal and use my ebrake together to stop the car. Very scary. Where should I start? Fill the resevoirs up and bleed the brakes? Im worried the brake booster is out because it doesnt build pressure when the engine is off. The car doesnt have keys installed on the doors.He did however give me new locks with a key. How difficult are these to install? Im sure ill figure it out once I remove the panal but Id like a general idea of what goes on in there. Any direction or advice is appreciated. thanks
