  1. check the contacts between the sensor and wire or replace the sensor. I had the same problem and replaced. its worked fine since.
  2. And because im a model human being, I went ahead and looked it up in the FSM for you to, so it would be more clear to you. go to ENGINE FUEL to section ef-14.
  3. need a known working 280zx turbo dizzy, let me know your price shipped to 94526. thanks
  4. Theres already a thread for this. You didnt take the bumpers?
  5. okay, go download the FSM for your car, just search it and it should come up. From there you can look up every part of your ignition system and it shouldn't be to hard to trace the problem. It Could just be a bad ground, blown fusible link, or lose connection somewhere.
  6. So your saying your getting spark at the coil, but not to the plugs?
  7. You didnt say if your getting spark at your coil. How do you know your sensors aren't bad? have you tested those? If you had searched EVERYTHING im sure you would have found the problem by now.
  8. Typically white smoke is a blown head gasket, check your coolant. Has it gone down. Or better do a compression test. Try smelling the smoke next time. If it smells sweet its coolant, burnt is oil(oil should be bluish), and gas...smells like gas(should be black).
  9. What tests have you done? What was your fuel pressure at when you checked it. Have you gone over all your electrical connections and cleaned them, these cars are notorious for having corroded connections that keep the car from starting or make them run poorly. I would start at the water temp sensor. Have you checked you battery connections, try cleaning them, are you sure your battery is still good. Are you getting spark at your coil when you crank it? maybe your ignition needs to be replaced. Do a search and you should find plenty of people that had the same problems and solved them.
  10. Mine does the same thing, I used to just hit my dash and they would turn back on, but now I just wiggle my light switch and they turn back on every time.
  11. Avatar is really Pocahontas lol. *Caution Spoiler* http://web.me.com/pascalboogaert/Site/foto3.html
  12. Just put a stock engine back in, I keep all my stock equipment so when smog comes around I just throw the stuff back in, I do it all myself in a day no problem. If money is the issue just sell something you own on ebay. EX. tv, game system, samurai sword. Anything, you will regret selling your car, trust me. PS. If you have a turbo AFM, Ill buy it!
  13. dont need one anymore. thanks
  14. Need A known working 83 280zx turbo AFM. Prefer one that hasnt been opened and messed with. Let me know you price shipped to 94526. thanks
  15. lol I said the same thing, I felt weird after saying that during the movie and then seeing that bestiality scene later. Dont worry though, I looked up the actress and she is pretty hot in person haha.
  16. I was forced to the movie not knowing anything about it before I saw it, other than a short preview. I also dint know it was written by James Cameron. The movie was nothing what I thought it was going to be based on a short preview I had seen before hand. I have to say I was very impressed with the movie. It definitely made my top 20 list of movies ive seen. It had a very cool story line, great CGI. I really liked all the small details they added in the movie(to many to list) small EX. would be how whenever they( The NAVI) took a step in the forest the ground would light up. Basically Going itno the movie I thought it was going to be some dumb animated film about a war between some fantasy charchters and humans, but IMO it was really just a small part of the movie. I would recomend to anyone whom appreciates movies and doesnt just go for comedys or simple action(like Fast and Furious) should go see it. Also I thought the 3d was going to suck but it actually turned out to be really cool. 3D technology must have improved.
  17. I found A JTR aluminum radiator and proper fittings in a 280z yesterday!
  18. Have you looked for any vacuum leaks.
  19. So heres the story. I have had white smoke coming from my exhaust. I drained my coolant and my oil and neither were mixed. I did a compression test and my numbers were perfect. I then thought my turbo which probably needed to be replaced because of excessive shaft play was bad. So I bought another and put it in. still getting white smoke. I came to the conclusion that I either have worn rings(comp test doesn't point me in that direction) or my pvc valve is bad. So I took it out to find that it was stuck open. After replacing my pvc valve and starting the car I find that my vacuum went to 16 at idle when previous to replacement it was at 20(Used vacuum gauge not boost gauge for accurate reading). Also, I blocked the pvc valve with my finger while the car was idling and it instantly idled better and the VAC gauge reading went from 16 back to 20 when I did this. I cant figure out why this is happening.
  20. I really want to say silver but I have to agree that gold does look better with your color.
  21. This is just stupid fast. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Avy57Y4NS98&feature=player_embedded
