1975 DATSUN 280Z Recalls — Canada & USA

The 1975 Datsun 280Z has two recalls, the more serious being fuel line hose clamps in the engine compartment that can deform when tightened, allowing fuel to seep into the engine bay and creating a fire risk. The second recall involves the engine's cold-weather behavior. In sub-zero temperatures, moisture from the crankcase vent system can collect in the air regulator and cause the engine to idle at an unusually high speed if the vehicle is not fully warmed up before driving. Under certain weather and driving conditions, a gummy buildup can also form around the carburetor throttle shaft, causing it to stick and preventing smooth throttle operation.
