not really, it did get better tho.. it only cuts out when its cold and that is only for the first few minutes. Haven't got a clue. I've been thinking it might be a coil, I have seen some weird stuff at work happen like that. It also seems like it might be something like a crank sensor, but I dont know where the computer gets a crank signal, theres nothing that seems like a crank sensor on alldata or in the factory manual. You could check out those. Mine completely cuts out for a split second when its cold and then runs like nothing happened. What does yours do exactly? Maybe we can try some stuff.

Hi all, I picked up an '82 280ZX N/A a few weeks ago, however there seems to be a little problem, it seems to have a slight to moderate misfire. I replaced all the plugs wires cap and rotor, I have good spark on all cylinders. I replaced all of the injectors with little change. Cylinder #3 seems to be the culprit. I ran a compression check on all cylinders and they turned out to be within specs all within 5 PSI, from what I can remember 130-170 PSI, give or take some. The mis seems to be most obvious at low RPM, below 3K or so, after that it seems ok. Heres what i know about the car, it has a rebuilt motor, i confirmed that. I peeked in the cylinders an the hone marks look brand new. When i bought the car, it came with turbo injectors, they seem factory, they were old so i replaced them. The valves sound a little noisy, could use an adjustment. I was given advice by two people so far, First, run some fuel system cleaner and see if it cleans up, maybe some carbon build up on the valves. Second, check the valve clearance to see if they might have too much play possibly not opening the all the way. Thats all that i can remember. Any help would be great.

I go away for a week an this happens?? Haha nice one, think a paperback would work too!! No offence taken, all in good fun right?

this probably has been brought up, but can you put the l28et turbo on a l28e without it spilling all it's guts? I got an 83 280zx na and want to turbo it. What would be the best way of going about it? Can the n/a handle the boost? What will I need besides the turbo, exhaust and intake?
