Thanks to everyone that responded to my last query about my relay ! This was my first post ever...anywhere. What a cool tool and helpful folks ! Had the relay out in the sun the other day and caught the light juuust right and realized there was a number on it ! Called my buddy at the Nissan Dealer in Texas City with the number and he said it was a good number and definately a relay although his sources didn't specify which one it was. He said (I think) that the last 4 digits specify fuel related; so that goes along with my suspicion of a fuel pump relay. I would tell y'all the colors of the wiring, but some dummy before me painted the engine compartment (including the wiring harness) black. Now then....does anyone out there have a 25230 - 8992 relay that they would be interested in selling? again, thanks to all:ermm:

Have you ever pulled the sending unit? Has your Z always read this way or did it suddenly start? You may have a bent rod to the float in the tank. Just another avenue to investigate...:cross-eye

You see a small glimpse of a 280ZX in "The Postman" with Kevin Costner; near the beginning when he's in the service station.:cross-eye

I've been told that the '73 Z had some stuff that was exclusive to that year. In the engine compartment; firewall; passenger side, there is a small electrical relay(?) box (about 2 1/2" X1" X 1 1/2" deep). It has a box plug that plugs into the wiring harness. Mine has fried and now the car won't start..guessing... relay to the fuel pump? Have looked high and low in junk yards (found a '72 & a '74 with no such thing) and at the Nissan Dealers (nothing showing on the fiche system). Help!
