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)

Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (May 31, 2006 1:15 pm) I atleast want to get it started, because it wont start, this car has been "mojofied" the paint is screwed up, they put a confusin alarm system, when my bro and I removed it turning it on was easier, but here is another thing, when we try starting it there is no sound what so ever, the only thing that goes on is the "knight rider" looking speedometer, and the antenna goes up nothing seems to go one like the engine or anything, as this is a stick, my bro in law believes that the clutch may be having a prob. I atleast want it to start decently then sell it to get something else, I hate how I was set up to own it and no one seems to help, its like I need an actual expert to look at it, to get all the problems listed.
#81 of 171 help please!!!!!! by 300zx93 Jul 05, 2006 (9:58 pm)
I recently became the owner of a beautiful 1993 300zx non turbo. There were no recorded problems on the CarFax report, and the previous owner swore on his life that it ran perfectly (I'm starting to think someone should run him over). BUT, these past 2 weeks, I've had repeated problems with the engine cutting out at consistently RANDOM times, RPMS, gears, weather, and inclines/declines. i've tried using the product "HEET" to remove any possible air/water pockets in the fuel line and simply, am out of ideas. I'm thinking it's an electrical problem, but like I said : i'm not sure. Please help as soon as you can, for this is my daily freeway driver and I won't feel comfortable driving it to work and school until this problem is fixed.

Replying to: 300zx93 (Jul 05, 2006 9:58 pm) These engines are known for clogged injectors. My '95 NA was starting to develop the issue just a little around the time I sold it. It would occasionally cut out as I was coasting to a stop light with the clutch it.   Based on your description, I am not sure if this is your problem or not. Does it restart easily after it cuts out? Is it a very sudden problem?

Replying to: 300zx93 (Jul 05, 2006 9:58 pm) Sounds like a small thing (good news) that might be hard to track down (bad news).   Given the random nature one might expect an electrical glitch. You could try a simple test and run your engine at night and look to see if there is spark leakage from your spark plug wires.   Otherwise, you might get the engine scanned to see if anything turns up. Possibly you'd have to get a mechanic to just tighten and clean all vital electrical connections. You might get lucky.
