Plenum question, regarding wiring/plugs
Thats Andy Isherwood's, he spent a long time on it. Im still half way through polishing mine, still finding little bits that need rubbing down. It is a pain lol, but will be worth it in the end.

Plenum question, regarding wiring/plugs
Hi Daz, as said the loom is on top of the plenum from factory, which is a pain if you need to get the plenum off again in the future for any reason. After having the plenum polished, hiding them looks so much neater and no problems reported so far from peeps that have done it. HTH

Plenum wash out and thermostat question ?please
Thermosatat: the flatter section should be facing you There are no locating bits for it to sit in a particular rotation. You could use a little sealer smeared on the rim edge to hold it in place, while you place the pipe back over. Plenum: i used a can of degreaser stuff which foams up, when sprayed. Spray in lots, leave for a bit and hose out with water, then i used a hairdryer to help dry the inside, and leave to dry fully for a few days. Might be other techniques, but that seemed to do the trick.

both electric seats not working?
If you have a multimeter, there should be a constant feed to the seat plug. Undo the plug under the seat, using the probes on the meter, test the plug from under the carpet for voltage.

There is a circuit breaker on the panel behind the fue board in the footwell, you will need to take the plastic shroud/panel off to access it http://www.300zx.co.uk/cgi-bin/manual.cgi?list=bf&dir=&config=&refresh=&direction=forward&scale=0&cycle=off&slide=35&design=default&total=46

fuel smell
As above really, tighten all the clips on the fuel lines, mine were all loose to some extent and the worst as Chris mentioned, under the fuel dampner, i noticed it drip on the flat part of the rocker cover when cold, was fine when warm, but as the smell got worse on cold starts, i found that one to be the culprit

Quick bulb question
The HID's are 35w or 55w and is basically a 2 spade connection. Mine passed the MOT with HID's as many members here have, so that wont be an issue. I agree though, sort out the wiring mess first, it isnt that complicated a system, so shouldnt give you much grief lol

Help
With the temp changes and being off the road a while, all sorts of zed gremlins about lol. I would hazard a fair bet on fuel, if youre not smelling any. Check the fuel pump fuse under the bonnet near the brake MS and most importantly, check you have fuel in the tank lol

Threads updating?
It shows updated once you click on the opening page, but not in the heading on the forum. To be honest as you add posts to the thread, it will show in the main forum, under new posts.
