Thank you for your simple mistake. Makes me feel normal. You need to see if the injectors are opening and closing. You can get a noid light test system from Autozone (borrow), try and listen for them to open , or remove the injector clip and put a working Injector there and crank to check. Have you read the FSM yet. There are tons of test in the ECCS section. -
Hey Dave my new friend!

LOL! Alabama? What is there? Orlando was ranked number 3 best places to retire recently. Alabama has 5% state income tax but no SS tax or pension tax past 65. Then again, we are going to become the new PR so things may change.

I see Datsun Daves Transmissions in the future!

Something doesn't make sense. You know it runs on starter fluid and the injectors are not firing. Have you confirmed The fuel pressure off the rail yet? Also have you confirmed the fusible links by the batter for the EFI is good? I'm really confused how your getting gas in the oil and it won't start, but will start with starting fluid. If it was flooding it wouldn't run on starter fluid and all the extra gas.

That is really odd to me, to modified. To me all the mods improve the unknowns. I think they may be taking the mods and comparing prices against bone stock Z's? Maybe they want more of a stock Z and that for the price your asking it doesn't make sense? Not like an LSD isn't serviceable or a stroker motor. Heck the vintage air is way better than stock ever was excluding the freon difference.

Oh my! I bet I could stuff 6 Z's in there, congrats!

Might want to post on hybridz.org. You probably get some good insight. Build looks good. Seems you got most of the hard part sorted.

For kicks have you priced bringing it to shop at this point? Maybe a shop would do it cheaper at this point. Also bringing it by a shop you could get a 2nd opinion on bearings and over all condition. Though of course they may go oh yeah it's bad to get your business. Cost nothing but a little time to ask them. Heck stop by two or 3.

I did mine in the engine bay. Made a small bracket as mount for the relays to drill less holes. Hooked the fuse box straight to the positive side of the starter cable. I just thought it was more clean this way.

What cool car goodies did you find!

Great shots and great story. What is that blue pop up thing on the ground under the 2002? Also what is that red Toyota? That is sharp.

Finally my phone is starting to work. Power went out at 4:15am. Came back on at 3:30pm same day. Really weird some neighbors don't have power. No real damage. Feel very blessed. Still no cable or internet.

Thanks guys. Wind is still going. My assesment was off a little. ? I think cell service is down in a lot of spots. Texted some other friends and heard nothing.

So glad I boarded. Pounding rain right now. Another 1.5hr we should be better. Still have power. So many don't. Heard at least 4 transformers pop around here. I actually used my z to brace the garage door. Thank goodness I'm still in primer. I'm the blue dot in the middle.

I boarde up my NE side of the house. Now with the shift it seems I should have done the other side. I'm spent. Did my moms house yesterday. Good thing I got insurance on my Z. Just did this in August.

Hey Dave not sure if the rebuild kit is still available.
-
That looks like part 38 and 41 on this list. I checked courtesy for them and NLA. If nothing else you start searching the web for them with the part numbers. http://www.carpartsmanual.com/datsun/Z-1969-1978/engine-280z/exhaust-tube-muffler/california

Good to hear. Props to your wife for her commitment.

The ones that I don't get are when they are cut off, for whatever reason, they get in front of them and deliberately drive slow.
