Cosmic73 Posted March 23 Author Share Posted March 23 Well that's it all done really. Fitted the new valve cover gasket and put back the air collector etc back on, no leak! Ran it up to temp a few times and bled it a few times and nice hot air now coming out the air vents. The only thing to do now is change the mineral running in oil with new synthetic. Next week I'll be putting as many miles on it as I can ready for the track day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too soon for a leisurely Sunday drive out, but not for a prolonged high rpm session at the biggest circuit in the UK 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all about the experience and having fun, but next year I'll be hammering it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmic73 Posted May 14 Author Share Posted May 14 My Z now has 500 miles on it and runs really sweet........ Until this morning where I parked up and restarted the engine. Suddenly it's running rough with a P0305 code. Managed to drive it home and waited for the engine to cool down, Swapped pack 5 and 3 around expecting the error to jump cyl 3, but it's running sweet again. How strange is that?
