I have asked this question a time or two before. But no one seems to know the answer. Where does this wire go?
First Pic shows the Lil black wire.
Secound Shows where i have been mounting it.
Third shows the lil silver small cylinder that i have mounted down along wiht the Coil Bracket.
So do i have this wire grounded right? or wrong?

 

Mine grounded to the distributor. But Mine also didnt have that same type of end. Mine had a female spade connector. It doesnt really matter where you ground, as long as you ground it.

 

well i thought it might have somthign to do with injecotor ground problem. Since i am goin over everything. Also. Here's a good 20 min work, off topic. but why start a new one .. First Two are temp fuel line i hooked up. The Next three is a line i riped out from under my parts car. and bent to fit(sort of, first time) as a more perment fule line. Recycle what ya can.

 

Hey Fubar, here is my wire.

Coil:



The little black wire:



Connection at dizzy:



Same shot:



The other end:



Hope this helps you out, other than the coil, this wire hasn't been touched so it should be as it was factory.

 

Well. All my part's are gona be moved over to My New 280ZX. I go up to help some one put a battery on a lawnmower. and they give me a Z. Running. Driving. 1980 280ZX 5 speed SlickTop N/A. Brand new tires. 15inch silver snow flakes. Will post pics soon.

 

Well that takes care of that

Congrats on the new running Z

 

Wow you lucky ****, you get a free running Z for doing a lawnmower? That is crazy man. By the way you said it has 15" silver snowflakes on it? Would you think of selling them man? Just wondering, I need 2 more to complete the set. All aside let's see some pics dude, we are anxious.

 

Well. here's the pic's. Sorry WildMan, Part of geting the car was a promise to keep it togeather. I can paint it. do any mods i want/ but the rims got to stay. all 5 of them(5th spare is gold). Brand new rubber(0 miles) Just got a tune up. Trany gears are loose, but it shifts. Inter is Great. Brand new Cd Player(with stiring wheel remote,wireless) A/C works, but need recharge. Motor Smokes, still got to find out why. Don't burn oil. E-break does now work(Bigg Blue can help). Breaks work, but keeps looseing fluid. Brand new rotor's pads, and rebuilt caliper's.

Don't sweat it bro'. You can't blame me for trying. But wow what a nice friggin' Z. And it is a 2 seater slicktop to boot. You lucky dog, that is the shiznits man. You better not get rid of that one, that can turn out to be a **** looking Z!

By the way thanks for the drooling pics. Those wheels are off the hook bro'. Props to you for scoring on a sweet #ss Z!

 

Oh she will stay together. I will be pullin off all the part's off of the troblesome Z. New fuel rail, T/B, T/B spacer. all the small stuff. get her cleaned up. I am gona get her painted Flat Black, get a flat clear coat. maby a body kit. But she's my New Z. The speedo don't work, nor the oil pressure. So i got to track those down. And i am supprized you did not say nothin about that blue S30 in the background.

 

Right on man, keep us updated on your progress. I always love to hear people restoring their cars. And or getting them back onto the road.

 

Lucky SOB Got that thing for just about free. I know you've got to be happy to finally have a Z you can drive around. I wont say anything (else) about the flames though

 

dude that car is sick, fixing a lawn mower thats even better. i got mine for 220. and it doesent look half as good. congrats.

 

I love the Z 6-spoke wheel center cap for the horn button!

I can't begin to fathom what color scheme the previous owner was goin' for, but damn, those flames have gotta go!
