Hi; I have a little problem with my 1978 280-Z. I won't say that my tach won't work because it dosen't matter if it's running or shut off it reads 3000 RPM and that's where it stays. I think I have checked out the wiring and can't find anything visable wrong. Could this be terminal for the tach or does some one have a fix. The car only has just over 39000 kilometres on it (24000miles). Mel

Hi, Can someone tell me how to wire the Water Temperature Switch for my car. I have a 1975 280Z. It is a California model,, not sure if that is important. The wires for the Water Temperature Switch was broken and I am not sure how the original connection was. I believe there are two wires coming out of the Water Temperature Switch.. Black and Red. The black would be grounded?? and the red wire??? I look forward to your feedback. Thanks.

I have replaced all of the gas tank vent hoses (all 5 for a CA car!!!). I'm trying to get the evap tank back in the well. Do the large vent hoses go behind or in front of the filler neck? I'm fighting it big-time Can I eliminate the evap tank on a CA car? The gas tank has 4 hoses coming from it.

Hi I am at a loss and a friend found this site for me. I have had 4 mechanics look at my car (79 280ZX) this last month and $800.00 later my car is in the same shape as I started. So, I thought maybe someone on here could assist me or they had the same issue? The issue= I will be going along and the out of the blue her RPM and OIL gauge(needles) will drop and she wil die, BUT if I am going at the right RPM I can pop the clutch and keep going. I never know when this is going to happen and so she sits and I hate it because I miss driving her. Can anyone help me? Thank you
