Need a cold start valve for an '82 280zx n/a

As it states, I need a cold start valve for an '82 280zx. Mine is leaking, so I had to unplug it. Anyway, if you have one, give me a price, and shipping to 85207. And thanks.

Yes I still need a cold start valve. When I get one, I will post here saying so. Anyway, how much you want for it? Mind you, I can get one new for $78. So if I have to pay close to that for a used one. I will just buy it new. So let me know how much, and we can go from there. Thanks.

I'm just trying to spend the least money I can. Because I am still tight on funds.

Cool Shady, yeah I may get it from you anyway. I need more than one. lol I don't have any good cold start valves, and I need 3 for my Z's. I just wanted one now, so I can start my car easier. I just have to crank it for 10 seconds or so.

Have you considered running without one altogether? My car actually ran better without one, even starting it at -40F.

if his is leaking then he would have to find a safe way of blocking it off. moreso than putting a bolt in the line.

Sounds good man. Hey do you take Paypal? Is so, just email me your Paypal address to atranfanatic@yahoo.com. My mailing address will be on my Paypal invoice. Thanks again man.

Oh, does it have the gasket with it? Mine is kind of beat up, and torn.

I am right now, it takes longer to start. If I plug it in, the car starts right away. But spews fuel in the air. lol So that is why I unplugged it. If I get one that works, it should start every time.

Thanks man, appreciate it a ton. That's cool, I am in no hurry. Though I am looking forward to getting it installed. And be able to start my Z easier.

^ Yeah I thought so too. I will probably install it this coming weekend. It is not loose like mine is. The top of mine you can wiggle, and I don't think it is supposed to do that. lol
