big-phil Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 That looks like a crack in your block? but its hard to tell from that pic. And the other thing I think is a cruse control, or a engine warm up vacuum activated arm to give the motor a little bit of throttle when cold, I thought that was only on motors with carbs? What year motor is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 do you have to pass emissions? if not then rip all that junk off. I am soo glad I don't have a 280Z just because of that pile of mess in the intake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnc Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Looks like a feed tube to the EGR has cracked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygnusx1 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Photos #1 and #2 are too dark for me to see anything. Lemme go photoshop them. OK EDIT: MAKE sure it's the EGR feed and NOT the steering rod I am looking at!!! Whatever it is, it's cracked. Photo #3 is the Air Conditioning idle kickup. It should engage when you engage the A/C compressor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OlderThanMe Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 are you using A/C? I say strip off everything that you can since you don't have to take an emission test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
