  1. yes its from an 810 it used to work great but i did a head gasket now the car wont start i have ~100lbs compression on all cylinders so im just trying to get some su's to put on it and call it a day... it is complete with afm, injectors, harness, ecu, tps, csi, throttle body, fpr,... its all there
  2. Hey guys got my fuel injection up for sale because im not smart enough for it..lol im located in salem oregon.
  3. Hey i know its an old add but do you still have this?
  4. Sorry posted too soon appliance fine wire wheels powder coated to match my black pearl. I have center caps but 1 fin is broke off of 1 of them
  5. You can also find a lot of good info in the fsm it's hard to find but search for it and download it get the 72 240z fsm and the 74 260z fsm as those carbs are most likely 72
  6. Your going to need to set your floats and clean your needle and seat the problem is that it isn't shutting off the incoming fuel grab a 1/2 inch drill bit as your measurement between the float and lid and bend the float until it touches the drill bit And that line gets a hose on it and goes to your air cleaner
  7. The black pearl lives again!!!!! I sold her to buy a new car that was safer for my son and it took 2 years to get her back but.... I did Turns out the oil pump shaft had been rotated carbs had been screwed with and radiator now leaks but hey I sold her So today I remedied all of those besides carbs cause that's a bi*** and took her for a spin first time since I got her back and first time for her in almost two years Couple backfires loss of power and hesitation on acceleration but dammit I did it
  8. This looks like a fantastic start if you wanted a 2+2 77 280z 2+2
  9. I rented the vacuum tester thing from autozone and the regulator held vacuum. So that steered me away initially, but heres the real cause for confusion.. my fuel pump is on a switch in the center console.
  10. fuel pressure regulator is out or giant vacuum leak but i did the starting fluid test for leaks (the one where you spray all around the intake while turning it over) and there are none, i also re- checked and re-tightened all of my bolts to my intake and we should be good
  11. so it runs intermittently sometimes it just fires enough to turn the motor faster than the starter. and sometimes it runs when running it will not rev or it will die it also idles at around 2500 there is no tach so its hard to pinpoint exactly. but it runs.... kinda. the bcdd system has a wire that has no mate on my harness. it is the factory bcdd system, and factory harness. im tempted to just save 700 and get su's from ztherapy. unless there's something that makes sense thanks for the help.
  12. i used a test light so +12 volts, and i pulled the plastic side cover off the a.f.m. for the test. I am running a w48 intake off of a maxima with the 280z wiring harness i have already swapped the throttle body because of the electronically controlled idle control on the maxima it will run for a minute very occaisionally but when it does it just dies my initial thought is vacuum leak but the starting fluid test did othing so all vaccum ports are capped and there are no leaks.
  13. I have tested all injectors the a.f.m,. the fuel pump, the connectors to the c.s.i., water temp sensor, and the other water temp sensor thing with the single plug. The a.f.m. is making the injectors click when you open it. the fuel pump is pumping 38 psi. the c.s.i. is getting no power turning the car over, or with the ignition on run? i have replaced the ignition switch and the water temp sensors are both getting power. would the cold start injector keep it from running. and i am getting great spark i installed an e12-80
  14. What was the issue? I have the same one... Everything looks good and it starts but dies immediately.
