A few Questions about AFM

[FastWoman]

That's about as good a success story as I've seen! Congrats, Argneist! You should be very proud! And hey, congrats for finally having the courage to tweak your AFM!

I made a word document of all thing things I have done now. Its over two pages long. And that is a bullet listing in Word. I cant believe how many things I have done. It has definately made me want to dig into another car now. And do other more scary stuff. I had what I considered level 1,2,3,4,and 5 issues to work on the Z car. I am now officially past level 1,2 and 3. And into level 4. Which are issues I consider more of a PITA than safety or drivibility issues. Like my side marker lights not working, or lately one of them is working. And several other similar small electrical issues. At some point I will be taking the dash off, to replace all my lights with brighter ones, but the main reason is that my heater is not blowing very warm, and I need to remove/inspect everything that has to do with the heater system. My A/C works, just not heater. But I dont drive it in the winter, so the fact the heater was only 72degrees doesnt bother me that much. And I might put it off....so I still have a list with quite a few things on it, but at least they are minor issues, as compared to everything else.

The neat thing about all of this, is I could do all this on another Z and it would be easy for me.

Oh yeah I meant to mention this too, my spark plugs are all reading the same now, and according to what I know, pictures in books, and local mechanic friends, they all agree my plugs are looking fine now. That is just more proof I have it dialed in as good as I can expect it to be

Cool Looks like all of us with EFI share similar stories. The cool thing is that after pulling out your hair trying to solve these problems it turns out to not be that hard to fix and we become more knowledgeable about how this system works. In my case where the P.O. Hacked the system my making adjustments in order to compensate for a greater malfunction (leaky manifold). or making "mods" (as if they know better than the Nissan engineers).
