Guest Anonymous Posted January 5, 2001 Share Posted January 5, 2001 ok everyone, need some help on this one. I have a 1982 280zx turbo. I put a chevy small block in it. How in the world does the heater work? I hooked the lines up to the intake manifold and one to the water pump. Still no heat. There was this little T peice of plumbing from the z that had two wires coming out of it. Do I need to put that back into the system? Or what. Thanks for any and all info. sean ------------------ "I feel the need, the need for speed!!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pauli Posted January 5, 2001 Share Posted January 5, 2001 the always unnerving aspect of finishing a job with more pieces than you started with seems to have bitten you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted January 6, 2001 Share Posted January 6, 2001 I don't have more pieces then I started with, I just don't know how the heater works, so I don't know if I need to put this t piece back into the loop or not. ------------------ "I feel the need, the need for speed!!"

Didn't see that Tpiece on my 79/80 280ZX. Just hooked up my hoses to the two coming out my firewall. Mine's a barebones 280ZX though with none of that digital or climate control excess. Have you got climate control? I assume if you found an electronically controled valve (or is it a temp switch? doubt that) it's part of the climate control. Got your FSM? it should tell you... What diam. tube headers did you install? I don't think I caught your motor/build specs? Just be careful as shops often get exuberant at exhaust mods and selling you that their 'tweaks' won't affect your overall flow etc....I've been hosed a few times with stuff like that....never again. You might want to install some Stage 8 locking header bolts while/if they're still well sealed to keep them that way. Not something I enjoy changing to much. ------------------ Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
