The stock EFI doesn't like performance camshafts Also I doubt your camshaft is the main problem...

So I did some measuring Current gear offset is .112 (2.84mm) With the case on and the shaft down as far as it will go the projection into the bellhousing is .110 (2.79mm) With it pulled forward for the snap ring the projection is .195 (4.95mm) The difference is .085 (2.16mm) so the gear offset appears to be .027 (0.69mm)?

I am not the resident efi expert but I'm sure one will chime in. You seem to have hot a lot of the trouble areas already. If it were me I would rig up a fuel pressure gauge I could see from the drivers seat. I suspect your pressure is dropping off. If the pressure holds I would pull the injectors and do a flow test into cups

Be careful running your starter that long! You can burn it up

At least on my car, they need to clamp pretty hard to hold the panel in

You need to put that next inspection on your calendar 1/1/2099!

There is an online retailer Theujoint store Email them and see if they can cross reference them

Your old schumacher is very similar to my old one except I had an auto switch down on the left

I'm afraid your right. I may have to go shopping for a vintage unit. I wonder if my old unit can be repaired?

Sold $545k

Thats a nice pan!

I think the reproductions are stainless and very stiff. Would be hard to diy

I think a lot of people feel this way. Vintage Schumacher's sell on ebay for as much or more than the new ones

That's my concern about buying a roll around machine. I'm up for a couple of hundred bucks if it's gonna last but I don't like experimenting. Many of these machines only have a one year warranty. If it's a good machine you aught to be able to warranty it longer than that!

I cant watch the videos either. Phone or laptop

One of the reviews who had the diehard called Customer service. It went to Schumacher... It's on the internet, so it must be true! 😉

Evidently Schumacher makes the DieHard charger

I have a jump box. A great tool to have around

Thanks Zed Im probably looking for a charger more like a shop would use Jim I looked at a bunch like these. One thing that throws me off is the 10% one star reviews. The Schumacher has similar reviews but I went ahead and now I would be a one star review too. All these new chargers are so lightweight. My old one is a brick. Is it antiquated to expect a good charger to have some heft?

So I had an old Schumacher battery charger. It was in a black metal case, switches, analog meter. Probably 25 years old. It always worked great. Then the automatic shut off quit working. So it would overcharge batteries if you didn't babysit it. So I bought a new Schumacher. It had some nice features like desulfating and such but at 13 months its completely dead. 1 month out of warranty!! So I have been shopping for a good charger. I deal with a lot of flat batteries. I would prefer 6v and 12v charging, man & auto and a booster setting. I am willing to invest in a quality charger but I expect it to last a long time! Any suggestions??

I think one of the most helpful tools on the fuel injected cars is a wideband O2 sensor. It make diagnostics much easier

You could always PM me some pictures and I could help work on some ideas

If the panel is mounted on the garage then you could possibly punch through the back of the panel and mount a sub panel in the garage and have power to your hearts content

That is a pet peeve! The IRC code here only requires one outlet in the garage. WtH!! When I build a house there will be 8-10 at least 4' AFF around the garage. Maybe more depending on how big it is. Why do my houses cost more??? A hundred things like this!! Jeff, Can you not bring power overhead from the panel to get a dedicated circuit to the garage?

As Steve alluded to, this is a good site to look at parts diagrams https://www.nissanpartsdeal.com/nissan-280zx-parts.html Sometimes you can find parts by googling the part numbers. Many times they are available in Japan but shipping can be a killer.
