  10. have had the conzult cable for over a year now and last week changed my laptop. i forgot to make a note of the activation code as my old laptop died. i email the reg code and they told me it was already registered so cant send new activation code. im stuck now as i cant use it. anybody else have this problem.
  11. ok lad thanks 4 all ya help. got it started this morning. turns out all my conection are fallin apart. the ptu connection was all corroded so got an elecrical cleaner and she sparked up straight away. just need to set the timing proper now. once again its great to have all of ye for the help and its much appreciated.
  12. the belt had started rubbin off the case so had a look to see the prob. when i removed the case i saw she was 1 tooth out so i striped down and refitted. not sure how long ago she jumped tooth. will take out plugs in the morning and check connectors again.
  13. iv left it 4 the nite cause iv flooded it. it ran fine up to the point of fixin it apart from slippin a tooth.
  14. cam belt slipped a tooth so stripped down as if doing a belt change and done all the usual alinement and repositioned the belt. put everything back together and now cant get the bloody thing started. strong fuel smell when turning over but wont fire. checked connections and all seems fine. please help.
  15. i need a set of those as well. but only the standard ones 4 the mo as mine have dried and cracked and now i cant even drive the car they have gone so bad. would like to know how much the ones above cost tho as might get them at some stage.
  16. i worked 4 nissan and it looks very much like the 350z colour. leave it as is. it would be a shame to change such a crackin colour.

    welcome mark. any pics of your Z available.
  18. cheers will check on that on tuesday.
  19. This only started yesterday wiv the cam belt so hadnt a chance to strip it down yet.
  20. Iv requested advice on this problem before but still cant find culprit, and now when i start the engine from cold the cam belt seems to be rubbin off the cam belt cover. Iv changed the belt around 3000 miles ago.The original problem is a rattle that happens when i put my foot down and seems to be comin from low down front. iv checked the exhaust and the brake disks plate and both are tight and firm. Also the rattle only happens when its in gear, iv tried revin the engine when it starts rattlein out of gear and the rattle is gone. ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. The cam belt only seems to happen when the engine is cold
  21. Nissan filter ( part NoA5208 H8904 ) and sump plug washer. i think thatll do ya. got this from zworld. Find jeff from zworld in the traders section or give him a cll, you will find him very helpfull.
  22. my expansion bottle leeks if u fill it into the neck and drips into the same place. worth a check. do u use the A/C often. as with my other cars if it was in use before parking water can drip off the pipes due tro how cold they get. Condensation i think. not sure if any pipe is in that area tho.
  23. I used slick 50 myself. always have and anybody iv spoken wiv stands by the stuff.
  24. i had the same problem. the drain pipe from the a/c comes off fairly easy so that would be my first check.
  25. Think i undersatnd ya but. The clocks in the car now are in mph and read fine. when i put the Kph clocks in and i am doing around what i think is 60 mph the clocks read 40 kph when they sould read 100kph. Hope ye understand. Sorry if its annoyin.
