Classic Cars Nissan 300ZX, all models

You are in the Classic Cars Forum. Your Host is mr_shiftright
i have an 84 300zx with the turbo. I've had the car for 5 years. Nothing has ever gone wrong with it. I changed the oil 50 miles before it was due, new tires every 6 mnths, changed the fluids once a year. I went out to start it one day and it acted like it was flooded out, then died. Tried again and it wouldn't start. I pulled the fuel filter off, blew in it and there was a nasty gooey greenish black color that came out. replaced that, spark plugs, and the heads. the car still won't run. Does anyone know what might be wrong?

Replying to: jenny6 (Apr 13, 2006 7:02 pm) First you check compression. Then you check for spark. If there's spark , you check fuel delivery. If no spark, you check each component that delivers spark, starting at the back of the chain (battery--ignition switch--ignition module--coil or coil packs--wires---plugs). If no fuel, you do the same....fuel pump, pressur in fuel rail, noid light on injectors to check for injector pulse (and whatever fires the injector pulse on your car). And so it goes till you nail it. But it's important to start a "tree" on pad and paper and not to start guessingly wildly or you'll get lost as to what you did and didn't do. |

I'm sorry I had to delete that extremely large photo you posted as it was throwing the viewing page out of whack. You either have to limit the size of your photos, or better yet, why not open up your own "page" to post photos in our new "carspace"? Just go here and sign up. Through the "friends" feature, you can let anyone else on the board here know that you've got a page set up with photos of your car. www.carspace.com thanks! MrShiftright Host
