Well I finally finished my first ever headgasket replacement job on my ole 240sx. I went to fire her up and realized that I wasnt able to build up pressure for the engine to start. I had to replace the starter and it cranks fine. Well while searching and reasoning for why I had no pressure I realized that I have a huge vacuum leak for the Ka24e intake manifold due to im missing a bolt. :picardfp: I realized that bolt has been missing the whole time when I took the head off and I dont remember removing it. https://www.flickr.com/photos/[email protected]/41917210622/in/dateposted-public/

if you have a vacuum leak there then definitely...I would look for your "extras" that are not on the car for what could have gone there...
