WingZr0 Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share #88 Posted October 27, 2009 (edited) OK. I get home, get out the car and walk around the back to the passenger side to unload my stash, sniff sniff gasoline. Kneel down by the back tire, sniff sniff gasoline.I get down on the ground and look under the fuel pump and see a quarter sized spot on the floor. Put my finger in it, sniff sniff gasoline. Drips twice more then stops.Start the Z up again, drip drip gasoline! Feel around and all the hose are dry and clamped and find the the drip is coming from above the pump. Feel around some more and find the top of the Fuel Damper is wet! What is causing this, is the littlle bolt looking thing on top the damper coming loose or is this thing dying and on it's way out?Thyanx ~Z~ PS thanx for the TPS BLAKE, it works fine.

WingZr0 Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share #89 Posted October 28, 2009 (edited) Jay at MSA said the diaphram in the Fuel Damper is ruptured and thats why it's leaking at the bolt. I tightened the bolt tight as i could and the line backed up causing a leak at a hose clamp just ahead of the damper, so don't ever try that. So the last one is on the way from MSA . YEAH, Ruby's been parked .

sblake01 Posted October 28, 2009 Share #90 Posted October 28, 2009 (edited) I wonder where Jay got that one? I was under the impression that OEM 280Z fuel dampers were long since NLA after looking for one about 5 years ago. I ended up using one for an 810. 17330-U7400 They're plastic but the design is better than the one for a 280Z. but that was 5 years ago. I doubt that they're available now either. Glad the TPS worked out for you. I'm going to have to start listing how many S30 are running around with parts that came from me. Who is it that does that, Arne?

WingZr0 Posted October 29, 2009 Author Share #91 Posted October 29, 2009 (edited) Yep thats Arne haha . On my Z i call it the Sblake option package! Nissan dealer here says they can special order it for $110 on 2 day shipping, same price as MSA but with my only car down how im gonna pick it up ! Since the engines new figured it was matter of time before something else broke, didn't think it'd take so soon though. So what next, a shock strut. . . . ?

Yep thats Arne haha .I guess I can pull that out, if people don't like it. On the other hand, I just sold more parts to another new buyer - yet another Z for the list!

sblake01 Posted October 29, 2009 Share #93 Posted October 29, 2009 I like it, Arne, I think it's cool! I just couldn't recall who it was. (oldtimers' disease) I must have supplied parts for at least cars as many as you have.

WingZr0 Posted March 19, 2010 Author Share #96 Posted March 19, 2010 (edited) Hi Guys Like to know if you guys can tell me if all of my vancum lines are hooked up and or routed correctly. Here are some pics of the newly rebuilt engine I'm finally posting. Below is a link to my photobucket that has many more close up pics and angles to help view where everything is going. Remember it is an stock 1977 280Z 4 speed engine as mentioned above with the same engine and a newly rebuilt cylinder head that is the exact same as the old one it replaced, a N42. All new conntor plugs too. http://s235.photobucket.com/albums/ee59/partnateam/Ruby/ I also added pics of the MSA Aluminum Radiator, Thermostat control for it and the K&N Cold Air Intake Hoping to see if a line is wrong making my car run rich and not pass smog or if a injector is stock open. The injectors were rebuilt but one of them, the number 5 I think it is in the pics, was leaking where the top of green body casing meets the side of the injector casing. The warranty I believe is expired on them so I repleced it with a new Napa injector I originaly bought. Attached files for future thread searchers. ~Z~ Edited March 19, 2010 by WingZr0 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/26413-the-state-of-things/?page=8#findComment-313018 Share on other sites More sharing options...
