Datsun-Fever Posted November 23, 2005 Share #1 Posted November 23, 2005 Well, it started one night when we were trying to figure out why i had a huge clunk when i shifted hard, we where taking a corner pretty hard and the car stalled out. I could smell burning wires, and saw some smoke come frome the cowl area. The car wouldnt even start untill a pal of mine came over and we replaced the fusible links and some wiring to the fuel pump. I also bought a new fuel pump relay. So, the car starts just fine, but the really f-ed up part is, when ever i take a corner i can hear click click click, my relays going on and off, and the car begins to stall again, and jerks back and forth like crazy....but the second i straighten her out, she flies just fine. I have posted this question in many forums, and still have no leads at all....i am in fact doing a 350sbc swap, but its supposed to be really cold in Calgary right now, but is like summer, and i really want to take the Z out a bit more before throwing the chev in it.....any suggestions at all are appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnosez Posted November 23, 2005 Share #2 Posted November 23, 2005 I'd start by checking for bad ground connections. Something is moving when you take a corner hard and making the relays click. Summer like in western Canada? Hope it moves east soon....I got some more outside work to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datsun-Fever Posted November 24, 2005 Author Share #3 Posted November 24, 2005 Ok, i was just outside, this is wierd. The car started up like a champ just now, but after turning it off, i was checking all my electrical connections at the ignition relay, moved some stuff around, tried to start it again, but she would go! so i moved the wiring at the ignition relay again, and suprise suprise, she starts up just fine! guess i gotta start replacing some wires Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
