because i have tried it, all i did when i was a kid was take stuff apart, now i can take it apart, put it back together correctly and improve upon/fix its design as well as know the theory and methods behind it.

i hate to say it, but you are just not the person to make that car shine, your the kind of person who should just buy a pre restored 240 and call it a day.

my first 95 z32 got totaled when some idiot in a ford pulled out in front of me. and the second was i bent a few handfulls of valves when the PO of my 92 failed to properly maintain the timing belt, water pump, injectors and wiring harness.

yes, fuel pump die from over heating due to the tanks being run dry, the fuel pumps are cooled by having fuel around them.
