Hey, new to the forum. I'm a 280zx 2+2 orig. owner. Two problems:
1. I just reinstalled my radio/cassette deck that i had repaired today and notice something. First off, if I open my drivers door, the volt meter goes from about 11 to 6v. If I close the door, the meter goes back to 11. If I put on the a/c, turn signals, etc., only minor drop as expected. If I put on the radio, same big drop. I pulled the door jam switch and there was no apparent short. The volt meter did the drop before the radio was reinstalled as well. Also, now my rear antenna isn't working and it always did. Any ideas.

2. The car was sitting about 2 mo. and my clutch was soft till about 2" from the floor. I had to pump it over and over and eventually it came up. My clutch slave cyl. reservoir fluid is dark and I'm wondering if the slave cylinder is going bad or needs to be flushed out.
Thanks.
