cant get my z to turn over
i super busy today so i didnt get to mess with the Z the wire is not a plug type its screwed into the solenoid im not aware of any fusible links on the starter it self. i have a picture of the starter wiring in my first post. i dont have a steering wheel on the car so no horn and i have yet to install the headlight harness.

cant get my z to turn over
when i turn the key i get nothing. not even flicker of light in the gauges. im not getting any power to the dash harness at all. thats why i was started to wonder if i needed some of the FI harness.i guess i need to bust out the volt meter instead of using a ground tester. where is the starter relay located? is it set of relays near the passenger kick panel? here's the wiring for the engine bay im guessing the two plugs are for a/c stuff atleast thats what it looked like in the fsm the fusible links are all new.a

cant get my z to turn over
i have a 78 280z with a 280zx engine/drivetrain with triple carbs. i cant seem to get my z to simply turn over. all the fuses check out. my question is do i need any of the fi harness and related fi component for the z to turn over? the over all goal is to try and start the car but first i need her to atleast turn over.

Hello, I am a new member here....
i think you should restore it with your son. let him do what he can and you do what he cant.it be a great surprise, but i think the experience will last much longer than the surprise 7 year later.

Help a houston Z guy out on a good cause,
Well i decided that im going to shave my head on June 13 for St. Baldricks fund raising event to raise money for children cancer. Im pretty sure everyone here has in some way felt the impact of cancer. I lost my father to cancer. My father was always a strong man i never remembered him getting sick and thought he would live forever. he work for the CIA when he was in the Laos army. he would spy on viet cong movement in laos for the us government. After the US decided to pull out my father had to flee his country and brought his family to America. when we came here we had nothing he managed to get a job and eventually taught himself how to repair cars and diesel trucks and open up his own diesel mechanic shop. in 1996 even after yrs of being smoke free he still fell ill to lung cancer. He stayed alive long enough to see me turn 14 passing away the day after my birthday. so im doing this in memory of my father Khamprasert Immanivong. I would appreciate any donations anyone on this forum can muster up. please follow this link to donate under my name. http://www.stbaldricks.org/participants/shavee_info.php?ParticipantKey=2009-358672

David Carradine found dead
maybe he hooked up with a Thai woMAN and got taken advantage of. he couldnt live with the shame and hung himself. that bad i know but i could not resist. him committing suicide doesnt make to much sense cause he was there for a movie.i mean he was 71... he was already on the road to deaths door why not just ride it till the end.
