mehas240z Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 (edited) I have included a link to my youtube videos this time to help narrow this down. I have the 280z with a dual DGV setup for a 240z I read some other postings and I feel that it is running rich. I hope the videos can help you guys in letting me know if I am way off base or not. I lack a lot of cash to spend troubleshooting the wrong part/pieces right now and was hoping the videos might help you guys point me in the right direction. The car idles fine, hesitates at 3K and wont pull past, and finally, stalls when I stomp it. Thank you, -Brian!

ThatGuyFromGates Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Check fuel pressure...just dropped my tank on my 76 this past weekend to clean it out. The conical filter screen at the inlet of my fuel pump would clog within a minute or so (car sat for 10 years) with this rust/sludge stuff. Cleaned the tank out and fuel pressure stayed constant through WOT. Before it would idle fine, but once it was under load (especially if you punched it) the fuel pressure would drop to nil, almost stalling out. If you're running carb I would check the usual- fuel filter and fuel pressure. Cheers, JK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crusher Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 That looks like it might be starving for fuel. I would also suggest a new fule filter and maybe dropping the tank. Also, what fuel pump are you running? Your fuel pressure needs to be about 3.5 psi. More and it will flood, less and it might stall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
