was about to park my car (280z -75) And the bugger just stopped.. Any ideas??? the little "click" sound from the relays when you put the gas pedal down is gone.. Haven't really looked into it yet, feels like FI, any suggestions will be very helpful. got to rush..eat turkey..again.... :sick: Later!!

If you can give us some more info. Like did it slowly come to a stop? Does it turn over? Any unusual noises?

Start with the electrical. Does it turn over and do the spark plugs get spark?

Next check and make sure the engine is getting fuel. (I can't help you with FI sorry).

Let us know. After you eat offcourse.

battery, terminals earth leads connections..

switch....

Heaps of things to check

So far... Got spark, but no fuel from the pump.. dunno if the pump is fried yet, or if something electrical, but will check that tomorrow..

Can you hear the pump, pumping when you turn her over?

take off the fuel line too the fuel rail (top one) get a old bottle and put the line into it. And turn the car over, fuel should come out of the line...

Some pump work when you turn the car to the on posistion others dont...least mine dont hehe..

other then that check the pulse to injectors with a led light in the end of the injector plug.. it should flash when turning the car over..

Fixed! Easy one too... The lead that goes from the battery to the FI etc. had a connector that had come loose. So now she runs again! Thanks for all your inputs though, I bet they had been very helpful had it been something else. Now I just have to find time to put all the goodies on that I have here in my room... (pics of this in my gallery as soon as I begin..) Thanks again!

Goes to show you...check the most obvious first.

280ZX Fever had the right idea!
