WildmaN

Yeah where have you been man? I have been struggling on getting my Z running. After the motor swap. After I found out s/c couldn't come over today. I went back to bed

lww

Now THAT's a good idea... My daughter gave me the stomach flu this weekend and I never got around to installing my Cran electronic ignition and dizzy into my 240z...

I got it for FREE!! WooHoo!

Oh well, have to run back to the bathroom...

Hey Just As A Thought Try Unpluging Your Cold Start Valve, If Its Stuck Open Or Not Working, It Would Just Puke Tonnes Of Extra Fuel In, Could Be The Problem (as I Sit And Condemplate) I Just Got My Z Going Again After Playing With My New Regulator And At 40 Psi It Doesnt Want To Run, But At 30-37 It Will, So Try Adjusting.

Don't lie, (smile) No one has a running Z. A running Z is like a unicorn!!

SHADY280

Actually Mines Running And Driving, Its Just Down For More Power Upgradeds While The Winter Season Passes. That And My Fuel Guage Is Acting Up.

We all know what you really have . . .Its a very common case of Iricedoutmyhondabutcallitlegit-acyphalis. Easily remidied. Ditch the grocery getter. And here you are putting the blame on the daughter whose college money you used to get your Z where it is today. Tsk tsk tsk . .

I am going to catch one with wings

DynamicJ

hahhah! that's funny...

black, your Z is lookin good. I see S/C is coming along. and Aaron, what are you swapping in/out currently??

jfairladyz

Whatever might get his car running It was fuel rails. I think he's moving on to distributors.

But let us know how the distributor thing checks out.

It was the AFM.. Problem solved.. Now I freed another unicorn

NismoPick

So Wildman's Z is alive again?

RodMoyes

Wow! Another classic case of everybody overlooking the obvious (Excet S/C of course). It was right there in front of us all the time. I should have known considering I just went through the EXACT same thing with my AFM a few months ago... Anyone remember that?

So we all had our heads up our asses on this once (not S/C). No weak spark, no bad CSV or injectors, no bad rail install... Damn! And it was so freaking obvious!

Oh well. I'm so glad to hear that's all it was. I hope the WildmaN gets to take it for a nice drive today and feel the glory once again.

So today is a banner day for once idle Z cars. My buddy Bob with the black '79 that has been a driveway queen for over two years now just called me and said he got all of his DMV stuff on it worked out and it will be on the road this afternoon. The Z Gods are definitley smiling today!

When I first heard it I thought timing messed with that, then swapped AFM, started almost instantly.. I am guessing Wildman isnt posting cuz hes at the DMV getting tags for that bad boy.. I vouch though it sounds mean as hell and the interior is SICK

jfairladyz

Thats really good to hear.

RodMoyes

So J... You said you're here in California right now? Where at? If you're here in SD somewhere, we should hang out...

Give me a call (760) 216-4158

Rod.

s/cL3.0

Can I call and pretent to be J??

RodMoyes

Suit yourself... You wanna take a drive out to San Diego?

Rod.

jfairladyz

Naw, up in Riverside. If I wasn't oh house arrest though I'd probably make the drive down. It's still up in the air if I'm going to stay in CA or not once my house arrest is up. I can move out of state pending approval to do so. I just have to make sure I get it approved first this time Once my house arrest is up though and I have the turbo swap done I'll probably make a trek down to SD. I've got family and friends down there. Thats where I grew up as a kid before moving to Riverside. I will save your number though and thanks for the invite.

RodMoyes

So uh... Does this mean the Air Force thing is on hold as well? Sorry to hear about the H.A. Thing though. Is your wife and child out here with you right now? Sorry, probably none of my bidness anyway...

Rod.

jfairladyz

It's cool. Yeah they just made the drive out and brought me my other Z. yeah the Air Force is on hold. There's a waiting period after my probation is up before I can enlist. My probation had been over but the warrant came up for violation of probation so it got extended. My wife has something against CA, but I love it out here. We'll see how it goes though.

RodMoyes

Well, Sorry to hear about it any way. But, you never know... Things like this can turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Maybe you'll end up better off for it. Keep your head up.

Rod.

SHADY280

So No Airforce Means Cf Parts Everybody!! Just Kidding Do As You Like. If You Got House Arrested At You Normal Place Of Residency, That Would Be Good, Probably Could Have Made More Money With The Cf Parts Than A Real Job. Bordom Can Be Amazing. Hope It Works Out J, It Always Does, One Door Closed, One Door Opened.

jfairladyz

Yeah if it wouldve been house arrest for out here in VA then I woulda just kept going for now. But I'm stuck out here in CA, so thats a no. No where to do it where I'm at. But enough about me, how's the car running WildmaN?

s/cL3.0

I am telling you guys.. that thing sounded mean.. him and carl are probably tearing up[ the freeways right now..
