Tudor...

does anyone know these cars? got a major pain in the rectum with one, wont start, got ideas, just need someone who might know them, can't be bothered with fiat forums, they all seem like stuck up turds, not like us zedders :punk:

don't leave it ticking over, especially if it's been stood for while, the oil pump at idle revs doesn't pump the oil enough to properly feed the top end, especially when the oil is thicker and cold, so you can starve the top end of oil, best thing in winter aswell, is to just get in it and drive it, don't leave it warming up. I just keep my foot at about 2 - 2500 revs for a while to warm it up if i have to....

haha jeff, the sludge was the the bung.....

i melted mine to the right shape with the tip of my soldering iron, then just peeled the melted plastic off....

here ya go............. http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=139448

there's someone on here who makes a jobby to connect the pipes together i think, this is the only thread i could find, but there is one with pictures somewhere... http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=141172&highlight=hicas HTH

i always wanted MU51CAL, as i'm a musician, and I did see a 911 turbo with F81 SPY looked like FBI SPY, looked pretty cool, when i was a kid :) or ya could have MU51C DJ

let us know how you get on, i'm 27 with no NCB, clean license, TT mine tho, all stupid prices....

old films are just up-scaled digitally to make them seem blu-ray ish, as they were filmed many moons before HD, i'd buy new films, the good ones of course if ya find any :) that way you'll get the most satisfaction and visual happiness!

cheers mate, and your 2000th post too! congrats :)

i do have about 10mm of free play on the pedal before it engages....

thanks jeff.... also, the replacement master cylinder i bought, just didn't seem right, consequently found out that it had been on a shelf for 3 years, great. i stripped it down, and my old one, the seals were hard, and the shape had shrunk, so not many sealing properties, so i replaced them with the nice soft and goodly shaped ones (all the seals are the correct way round etc.) from my old one, which looked in very good nick, it is a strange one this, there is air getting in somewhere, hmmm, got to be the master cylinder then, new seal kit do ya think? although i do think the seals are fine....

cheers mate, i've spent a good few hours on that one ABS nipple, about a litre or more has gone through that alone, maybe it is just loads of air, i finished about 3am, gonna go back to it in a bit, maybe some of the air will have gone to the top, just seems a bit strange! I shall persevere...

My Dad has T4DOR but not a diagonal 4, one without the triangle bit at the top, looks like a U, so spells TUDOR, and I want it....

also the pedal goes stiff ish about half way down, but you can just push it all the way down to the bottom...

Reet, I had a major problem bleeding my brakes, just couldn't get anything out of the rear, no air, no oil, no nowt. Turns out the master cylinder was faulty. Changed it, now i can bleed them, all four corners fine, and one of the bleed points on the ABS unit no probs, bleeds a treat. However, the over nipple on the ABS unit, the one for the rears, i have bled about a litre out of it, and still loads of air, bled it for hours, and still air, something isn't right, with all the nipples closed, it makes a hissy whirry noise, could the ABS unit be faulty and letting air in somewhere? There is no way there could still be air in it, surely? Everything is tight aswell.... Any ideas?

mine works fine with a usb to serial lead, but i use OBD scantech, has more features on it than the free version of conzult, sometimes it doesn't want to connect tho, but a bit of messing about and it does, but i can never remember how i did it!

socketing it isn't hard if you can solder, probably any half decent tv/electrical repairs place with a workshop would do it if you tell em what you want.... if your doing it yourself tho, ya want one of these.... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ELECTRIC-HEATED-SOLDER-SUCKER-PUMP-DESOLDER-IRON-TOOL-/130445044520?pt=UK_Home_Garden_PowerTools_SM&hash=item1e5f216b28

very tidy car matey, nice plate too, i'm looking at J8FF T (my name is jeff tudor) wanted J3FF T but it's not available :(

i know, they even had the cheek to nick my plenum too

should be one on each side mate...

oops

you can see here with the plenum off, the bracket is there.... http://i935.photobucket.com/albums/ad199/jefftudor/zed/n708486889_1359324_4385.jpg?t=1287491182

actually, i think that is (or should be) one of the 2 outside brackets that hold the plenum to the block? I see if i can find a pic....

I heard this many years ago, didn't hear it for years, and accidentially came accross it last night, it's not really offensive, but if your at work, turn the sound nice and quiet :) Childish but poetically funny, hehe..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAJroAaf3ZY
