What I had intended to say, was "If I open the window an inch or two..." and then reclose it, the leak is eliminated.
 
Good Luck on finding a nice Z32TT. Let us know what you buy, and, if you don't mind, what you get for your Z31.

"My clutch pedal goes to the floor."
 
You probably need a new slave cylinder. I'd be interested in knowing whether that's what's wrong, and, if you care to tell us, how much it cost to fix it.

voltmeter spike by joe85zx

Hi all. I just bought an '85 300zx turbo (I know, it seems people warn against this often) with about 117,000 miles on it.
 
At the moment, the only problem I can see is the voltmeter spiking here and there for a couple minutes, and then dropping back down to around 14. It'll hit 18 when it spikes. This has happened a few times now but it usually drops again after a short while running. Nothing has erupted from the battery and no electrical components have stopped functioning, though the lights on the climate control system waver in brightness. However, the electronic gas gauge shifts quite often between 3 and even 4 bars, so I'm not sure if there is a flaw in the voltmeter, or if the sensors for the electronic dash items may be wearing. Should be looking to replace the fan belt/alternator immediately, or is the short term spiking something that isn't too drastic?
 
Any and all help would be much appreciated.
 
Joe

Just make sure it is spiking - borrow a voltmeter and confirm.

Speaking of these, a nice looking survivor just popped up on the local Craigslist
 
Slushbox of course, but it looks good

MCP: There MAYBE another component in the "CLUTCH SYSTEM called a "DAMPER CLUTCH" . Follow your Clutch line to the passenger underside of the car. it kinda looks like an american solenoid, not very big. But it's in between the Master and the Slave Cylinders. Replace that, Bleed the system again and that should solve your "Pedal to the floor problem". Those little things cost but are simple to put on.........if you have small hands.

TSB For Door Rattle - Long Shot Request For Help by asa

Back in November 1990 Nissan issued a 300ZX Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) NTB90102, also referenced BF90018 regarding a rattle noise in the door area from the door striker. Can anyone tell me details about this fix? I don't own a 300ZX*, but have a Nissan with the same problem. Thanks for any help you can offer.
 
* I do have two friends with 300ZX's tho!

SERVICE INFORMATION:
On some 300ZX vehicles, customers may complain of a rattle noise from the door striker when driving over rough roads. This rattle noise is generated at the door striker and door panel when driving over rough road surfaces and is caused by the door's movement relative to the body of the vehicle.

 
Upper Door Hook Rattle
 
Inspect the upper door hook striker to confirm that it is not making any noise. No contact between the door hook and the upper door hook striker should occur in the normal operation of this assembly. If there are any marks on either unit, adjust to prevent the contact. Adjustment may be required at either the door hook or the upper door hook striker dependent upon the nature of the contact. The units are illustrated below:
NOTE: One way to determine if contact is occurring, is to hold the door handle up as the door is slowly closed to listen for any upper door striker noise which would indicate that contact is being made.

 
Lower Striker Rattle
 
If the incident rattle noise has been confirmed to occur at the door striker latch mechanism (illustrated below), a countermeasure shim can be installed between the door striker and the door panel. This shim is made of aluminum and reduces the gap between the door striker and the body hook.
