Ok, heres the quick rundown of the situation. I bought a 77 EFI 280z for 650$, it did not run and was missing the ignition and needed injectors. I have installed an ignition and injectors. I started her up for the first time yesterday, and it only smoked for about 20 seconds, and was extremely responsive, however at start up she immediately idles at 4k, and comes down a bit after you rev it for a sec. I would have diagnosed it under the hood some more, but gas was shooting all over the top of the motor from the fuel rail, so i must redo that entire get up. Now after shutting the car off, i stumbled across a ground wire down by the MAF, im guessing that could be my issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated, i searched the forum but couldnt find someone with the same problem.

Btw, if someone could be so kind as to direct me to a link that explains how to install a newer radio in the car? i cant find one.

Help, I have fuel squirting out of my fuel lines but more importantly I need to get my radio installed.

I'm sorry Sledge, this struck me as funny on a slow Friday afternoon.

I think yo may be in need of a FSM. Try looking under the resources tab www.XenonS30.com

LOL im glad i could make you laugh, im just that close to it being a Daily Driver since my Z32 bit the dust finally. LOL And i need something to drive for the duration of my motor rebuild. Because when the Z is rebuilt, i begin my turbo build on the S30 ;)
