blueking Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 i swaped out some injectors and now the 280zx doesn't run any more. info: when i got the car my dad was nice enough to order me lightly used turbo injectors. Supposedly they have 3000 miles on them and came out of a running turbo 280zx. the weird thing about these injectores is they did not have a name nor did the all completely match i looked at them and two of them had a blue painted on band while the others were only sold black. another interesting thing is that the stock injectors had a plastic nipple at the end where the fuel is sprayed while the other was metal and roughly the same size. when i installed the new injectors i took off the bolts holding the rail down and took off the bolts holding the boots down from there i simply took unhooked the fuel side and took all six of them out ,me being not so smart did not write down the wire order, when i put in the new injectors they seemed to fit in alot easier considering the nipple that goes into the intake was alot shorter in length i put everything back togather by attaching the fuel rail ends then attching the fuel rail then attaching the boot end, i did reuse the boots and bolts. i attempted to start the zx many times but failed. and am wondering why. it might be that i mixed up the injector wiring so i looked up the seqaunce and tomorow i am going to make sure that the order is correct but i want to be sure that my instalation was correct and if everyone thinks the nipple being shorter might be the problem or maybe because the injectors are from a turbo and i put them into a non turbo and now theres too much flow?? help please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4xwellmurd3r Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Turbo injectors will make your car run richer since they flow more. Also, Z's injectors are Batch Fired, meaning they all fire at the same time, so wire order really doesn't matter much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
