79 280zx wont start..but will crank..help where to start
hello i recently bought a 79 280zx from a neighbor. stumbled tryin to start it. its not getting fuel. i dont know if i am suppose to hear the fuel pump come on and cycle b4 it starts. i did put 2 gallons of gas in it. i sprayed fuel injection cleaner in the throtle body and it will start for a moment and then turn off when that burns off.
so am i suppose to hear the fuel pump come on in the car...how do i check this unit and check the relays. thanks in advance. i look forward to hearing my zx fire up the first time

Welcome to ZDriver! 
When was the last time it ran?
As for the fuel pump, yes, you should hear it prime for a few seconds when you turn the key to ON. The FP relay is to the right of the glove box & someone of a pain to get to (it's the GREEN relay). Also make sure the fuseable links aren't fried.
You should download the FSM here: www.xenons130.com/reference
