MX500 Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Background: 1982 280zx turbo, Rebuilt injectors, turbo, new head, etc, under 1000 miles ago. Car has sat for 2 years, but ran this poorly before it was parked. My car will not rev past 3500 RPMS, and it bogs and dies when I give it full throttle. It runs very rough and idles around 1500. The exhaust smells rich, and was slightly black, but I adjusted the air flow meter and it looks a bit cleaner, but the car still runs like @#$%&. What could be causing this? I messed with the timing this morning, and it actually ran worse when I advaned the timing, but the car doesn't ping, so It seems like the timing about right. Could the air flow meter cause this? I disconnected the throttle position sensor and the car still ran the same. Could that be part of the problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
