Guest greimann Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 The description of both of those components are on page 107 and 108 of the Haynes manual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280Zen Posted July 17, 2003 Author Share Posted July 17, 2003 Thanks, Im looking to rewire a 83 280zx EFI to accomodate the MegaSquirt EFI and Im looking at whats not really needed. Im also going to be doing the 240sx throttle body mod and had not planned on using the coldstart valve, Since I won't be using the coldstart I won't need the thermotime switch. Im not sure but it looks like I won't really need the air regulator as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleeperZ Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 The air regulator will help with cold starts, keeping the idle speed up until it's warm. That's one of the few factory doo-dads I kept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of 365 days a year it gets below 60 degrees maybe 30 times total a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
