This is my personal blog about 72 Datsun 240Z callsign Goldie. First of all i would like to say that this is for those who have intrests in this type of car and for those who are in the same situation as i, starting from the scratch. I have little experience about cars and this is one way learning more. This car was no-running when i bought it and naturally i intend to make it run.

Refreshed oil pan
I decieded to remove oil pan for cleaning and repaint and changed the gasket at the same. There was almost 1cm of dirt in the pan! Luckily that dirt coat has keep the rust off. Also old gasket had leaked oil, this solved that problem. Did compression test to engine and for my suprise, all the cylinders topped to 150 psi! Nice!

Nice looking oil pan!! Remember to go back and tighten all the oil pan bolts after you have run it for a few hundred miles. I forgot to do that on my old engine and I started to leak oil!!
VastaaPoista150 psi!! Great news! =)
I'm going to have to do the same thing for mine soon. oil pan is leaking.. tx Xenon for your tip about re-tightening the pan after a while!
