awk34 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Hi all. I recently bought a new-to-me '72 240z with a non-running but almost there engine. I was able to diagnose a few things and get the engine running for a couple seconds using starter fluid, but I haven't figured out how to keep it running from gasoline. For testing the carbs, I just put a bit of gasoline into the float bowls manually and then closed them back up. Opening up the carbs, it looks like it was a bit wet, but I'm unsure if that was from gasoline spray or something else. I have the the Haynes manual, but haven't been able to find much about carb diagnostics; just maintenance. Does anyone possibly have some links to info for diagnosing these carbs? Thanks in advance!

bunkhouse Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 quickanddirtysutuning/classiczcars will get you running. The folks over at ClassicZCars are still using these carbs, even the flat tops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
