  1. Shoot me an email at SmusicmanS@aol.com if you have a good working fuel pump for a 1980 280zx(non-turpo) The one I have works but it seems to be weak. (Like its not producing enough pressure). It turns on and the car runs at idals fine, but when you hit the gas it chokes out. I need one ASAP but money is an issue, as expected with an owner trying to fix a z car. I do have an extra air-flow meter that works and a hatch with a good window if you would like to trade.
  2. I checked all of the filters and they all seem to be clean, I replaced one all ready. Im in central Florida, in the Ocala area and i should have pics latter this week
  3. :stupid: Its a 1980 280zx, It has about 260 000 miles on it. Stright six engine, fuel injected. I bought it used with about 250 000 miles on it, at the time it was not running. I bought it as a project car and it was going very well. I had to put a lot of time and money in it to where it is now. It has a new body on it and I started to do the interior when it stoped working. But like I said, It was not working when I bought the car and I had to put new pluges, pluge wires, coil, roter, distributor cap, battery, fuel pump, master cylinder, alternator and fuel filters in it to get it working. It was working great, running smooth. It was even getting good gas mileage. Then the trany went in it. So I got a replacement for it. So theres a new 5 speed trany in it. Then after about 500 miles, my drive tran went out, so I put a new drive tran in. It was running great, untill I started having some fuel problems. It got bad fast and i could not figure it out. I tried many things. I put a new o2 sensor in it, an egnition switch, an airflow meter, I fixed the timing. But it still isent working. The car starts up and idols fine, it even sounds smooth, but as soon as you hit the gas it chokes out, but if you hit the gas slowly you can take the rpms up to 5000 with no problem, it only chokes when you hit it hard. I have over $2000 in it and i would like to brake even by selling it. I am getting ready to go to college and i need a reliable car. If you are intrested in a project car that is very close to being done and ready for the road then email me at SMUSICMANS@AOL.COM to give me an offer, or at least tell me what you think this car is worth. thanks Steve
