Mr.INSANE

First Off Do Not screw around with this oil pressure read some of my threads and youll see why Figure out if it works Now dont keep pushing it and find out your pumps gone and that you now need to rebuild

Heres something i personally learned try rotating all your spark plug cables counterclockwise once

Basicly Any transmission from The Z series 280zx and under i belive will work

okay then i hope theres no hard feelings about this

If you want to take it that way fine all the hell i was trying todo was help i have an opinion and you have an opinion you got angry becuase i had a difference in opinion i Said it wouldnt effect his temperature that drastically as in 30-40 degress obviously since i said that it pissed you off since flaming is needless this is my last post in this thread

Obviously you havent been reading this thread Im not trying to make flamebait i was just trying to help. I know different coolant will make a difference but not that huge of one. From what it seems there could be things wrong with his engine becuase with the setup he is running it should run alot lower than what he said. Btw ignore my puller fan thing i was thinking backwards heh was thinking a pusher pushed air into the engine bay.

Cant Wait to swap in a flux capacitor in that beast

Good, This will definelty narrow your searches. also i would like to say the type of coolant etc wont effect your cooling this drastically if you decide to use better coolants its like putting a band aid on cancer what type of fan setup are you running is it a pusher or a puller if its a puller thats part of the problem that wont work for **** at any sort of speed. Here are some possibilties. Waterchannel in block is blocked or theres some type of material stopping it from really getting inside the block and into all the crevises,Timing is off, bad tubing somewhere that slows down the flow considerably Kinks blockages etc, exhaust problems, Sticking injectors thats just some stuff i thought might cause it feel free to criticse etc

Alright Update Drained my tank and put in new fuel now theres gas coming out of the return line its dropping alittle gas Anyone have any new ideas

That doesnt sound Right first off check the obvious loose belts,Not enough water etc my engine has been running extremely hot and ive been trying to find the source im pretty sure i didnt have enough water and there was air in the system. it doesnt hurt to flush the radiator took me about five minutes drain open hose full blast to get all the crap out of it.

I love it The engine sounds great what kind of setup are you running

Havent had any real bad injuries from working on the z skinned my knuckles a few times etc etc I have had stitches but becuase of the stupidest reason. One morning my alarm clock didnt go off i was an hour late for school and was pissed i hit the alarm clock like five or six times. Three times i happened to hit my snapped of attennas i got a huge gouge in my hand and around 8 stitches in my fingers. man i feel like and idiot for doing that

/looks at link

under the battery tray is a good place to look

exactly very weird but i can hear the pump spinning up and turning on and this pump is near new

76

cranking without even trying

alright cleaned afm and related connectors cleaned tps and connector cleaned ecu connector and tryed another tps i had still a nogo

Cleaned the afm one already ill give the ecu and tps a try

Tach does blip when cranking does the elimate a bad ecu? Also ive been reading up on the 280z efi bible it did work though but now it just doesnt work at all also its a stock 280z

Oh sorry L28e

So ive been working on this for awhile now today i did some tests first off Unplugged fuel return line turned it over was bone dry Unplugged fuel line got sprayed with gas so it works Did the 9volt trick with coldstart injector no noise its probally gone 9volt on any injector i can hear the injector click and when i turn it over it hits on the cylinder i did that in Sprayed starter fluid in it starts to hit My injectors are most likely not firing what could cause this?

sounds like bad Master Cylinder to me

Aside from posting the annoying "any updates" I would like to say once you complete hugo i will torrent all the movies for easy downloading. Mull you are a inspirtation to Many people This has got to be one of the most popular Z projects in a good while My Car started out with a dead engine and many other problems but after watching your videos i eventually decided to start doing work on it myself Now i have a new old engine and im very happy Also Sort of Misc But you mentioned having a truck and that it wasnt performing at its best and you had to drive slowly home. That truck fixed yet? i noticed in the newer videos the original truck magically disappeared. What happened?

First off Question your sanity Better spark will not yield that much more horsepower
