Replying to: jenny6 (Apr 13, 2006 7:02 pm) Well then for a no start you'll have to start a very logical "diagnostic tree" wherein you start from the basics and slowly eliminate each possibility.   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.

Replying to: jenny6 (Apr 08, 2006 5:27 pm) what you should do is check your airflow meter if it's deffective it will prevent your car from starting

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 Replies to this message: skilman31 (May 13, 2006 9:57 am) cphoenix (May 31, 2006 1:03 pm) Mr_Shiftright (May 31, 2006 1:15 pm) and 1 more...

Replying to: skilman31 (May 13, 2006 9:57 am) is there any way to get any repair tips in this site? I have a 300zx and I just beggining to learn how to drive stick, im pretty good for a begginer since I made my research on how to. anyways, I have an 87 300zx, an idiot sold it to me real cheap but the problem is, it hasnt been taken care of like it should have been, the engine leaks oil, that it would be left dry, needs all differentkinds of fluid, I want to take care of whats causing it to leak so much does anyone have any idea? well I will take care of the air filter and the fluids and stuff, but since this car is old and was owned by a dumbass, would bringing this car back alive cost alot? I wanna get this thing moving for the time being so I can start going to work and stuff. Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (May 31, 2006 1:15 pm) cphoenix (May 31, 2006 6:19 pm)

Replying to: cphoenix (May 31, 2006 1:03 pm) Well for an oil leak best thing is to wash or steam clean the engine, then get the car up safely on jack stands and crawl under there and have a look for the leak. Oil leaks can be simple or they can be very hard to fix. With a large leak like you seem to have, first thing I'd check is the oil filter.   This isn't a car you'd want to put a lot of money into however, as they aren't worth all that much and probably never will be. So you have to keep your head about this and how far you want to get into it. Replies to this message: cphoenix (May 31, 2006 6:19 pm)
