Hi Yhiz,
Specifically which ground connection?
When my car idles, you can hear that it is running rich. The problem starts when driving and getting up to 3000 rpms. It will not rev over 3000. If you take the
oil cap off, the engine seems to idle normally.
I also have a 7/77 280z. Do you have a resistor on the wire from the harness to the Temperature Sensor? Mine has a 680 ohms resister inline.
This will be the wires that go across the top of the engine, by the fuel rail, to the front of the engine, they plug into the engine block behind the fan. Mine has
2 pairs of wires, each goes to a different plug, and a single wire that goes into the block.
Thanks,
Jim
