May 20, 200816 yr Author comment_248133 Just bought a new WTS from MSA. Lucky for me i work only 1 mile away from their warehouse. Can you figure out where i spend most of my lunch time?None the less, i'll plug this new baby in and report if it helps out. If this doesn't work the guy at MSA suggested a new Air Regulator.

May 21, 200816 yr comment_248178 your car RAN without the water temp sensor? Mine won't even START without that since the resistance value is non-existant, causing the injectors to not even pulse.i tried it once. I had it running and unplugged it. car cut out right away. if yours was able to run without it I'd start checking the wires continuity to see if there are any shorts.

May 23, 200816 yr Author comment_248513 Changed the water temp sensor and the car now runs with the water temp sensor plugged in. it will idle and drive under hard acceleration just fine. i can tell that it is still a little rich, but hopefully this is something a little tuning can handle.

May 23, 200816 yr comment_248521 Now you're basically looking at leaky injector(s) or cold start valve, bad thermotime switch, or fuel pressure regulator.

May 26, 200816 yr Author comment_248879 hahaha, sblake01... thanksSuch are the joys of rebuilding a classic. Labors of love, some might call it.But none the less I will replace the thermo switch, cold start valve and fuel press reg (in that order)... I recently replaced the fuel injectors.

May 26, 200816 yr comment_248887 Test them first. That'll save you from replacing items that are not in need of replacing. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/28078-will-a-280zx-afm-fit-on-a-280z-car/?&page=2#findComment-248887 Share on other sites More sharing options...
