  1. Hey guys, I have a 1975 280z and I just rebuilt the engine, Had it running smooth for about a month, parked it the other day and now when I try to start it, it dies in a couple seconds, cant get it to run any longer than that.

     

    However if I unplug the Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor, I can keep the car running if I push on the throttle. If I let the car warm up by doing this it can idle by itself for a good couple minutes before dying.

     

    Sensor is new with the rebuilt engine and connections all read correctly for resistance. Is my sensor bad? Or do I need to check other things? Fuel pressure regulator? Please help.

  2. I recently had to bleed my clutch and realized that my slave cylinder was leaking fluid pretty drastically.

    I went to replace the slave cylinder today, and after mounting it on the transmission I found the clutch fork to be completely loose, I can move it in all directions and I feel like I should not be able to do this.

     

    It is to my knowledge that the fork is held onto the release bearing by a clasp or something, is it possible for these parts to become disengaged? If so, is the only way of fixing this to drop the transmission? I cannot see the release bearing through the hole.

  3. Hey guys, im in the process of rebuilding my engine and I had finished installing crank, pistons, main bearings about a week ago and the crankshaft turned fine.

     

    I just finished rebuilding the head and went to move piston to TC but the crankshaft wouldn't budge.

     

    Any quick ideas to alleviate this problem? I don't really want to tear down the block again.
