Need some turn signal help
This is where a better meter with a hold function is your friend. You can capture the max. An oscilliscope can do this, too, but it's a little overkill. After looking at the circuit diagram I have online, I would say that I suspect the turn signal switch.

Need some turn signal help
Did you connect one lead of the test light to the G/B and the other to the G/R? If so, you did it wrong. Shell out $20 for a multimeter and check the voltage of each wire to ground. Here's the key, though. The voltage from the turn signals will pulse. Also, check the measurement against what happens when you turn on the hazard lights.

There are many connectors under the dash. Which one did you take apart? Does it match up to any of the connectors in the link I provided?

11.3 volts
Thank you. I would think that it might be a good idea to disconnect the battery, remove the fusebox and inspect/clean it. You have corrosion that is bad enough to cause at least 9 watts of heating at that fuse. It will only get worse over time.

Where are the leads when you detect a one-volt drop?

Yeah, I saw that about a week ago. http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/open-zcar-discussion/49433-unique-hybrid.html

whats it worth
Yeah, don't pour too much money into that one. Just fix it up enough to enjoy driving it.

Ignition sanity check
Something doesn't fit right. Is there any chance you have a ZX distributor or some other modification?

whats it worth
Considering you posted elsewhere that someone painted it red over the original color, it wouldn't have much value to someone who values the citrus green. (repaint<original) Rust drives the value down more. If you were looking to make money off of it, you will probably generate more income in parting it out. Otherwise, drive it.

Fuel leak
I think we found your problem. 7PSIG>4.3PSIG. You need a pressure regulator downstream to use that fuel pump.

Not currently, at least from what I can/can't find on Google.

Fuel leak
What is the pressure of the fuel pump? The stock pump specs are 3.4 to 4.3 PSIG, so the electric fuel pump should provide a similar pressure.

Pictures would help with valuation. Also what do you mean by "pretty ruff"?

The NICEST Z EEVVVEEERRRR-so the owner says---------------really
Georgia does not require a title for a car from 1985 or earlier.

emissions fuel check valve
My guess is that you're typing something wrong. It came up here, too. NissanParts.cc - Your #1 Source for OEM Parts and Accessories Of course, if you give that part number to your local dealer, they might be able to beat the price when considering shipping.

emissions fuel check valve
The part he's looking for is a check valve that lets in make-up air as you run the engine, but it won't let fuel vapors out when the tank warms. Part number 38 in the first link. It's not marked as NLA, so it may still be available.

emissions fuel check valve
Year? Nissan part number? Federal or California emissions?

Help....Z won't start
Okay, that is definitely your accessory relay. Do the other checks and get back to us on the results.

Help....Z won't start
1. Check the voltage while trying to start the car. Does it drop? 2. Check the voltage at the starter solenoid. 3. Check to see if your grounds are in good shape, especially to your solenoid. If it is a relay you are hearing, it is the accessory relay. You may be hearing the solenoid. Figure out where the click is.
