timing light will check ignition timing only which is ecu controled on zeds. it will not tell you if your mechanical timing is out (pretty sure if mechanical timing is out it would go into ''limp home mode'' best mate used to work at nis dealership and seems to agree, although admits they didn't get to many through the doors, more a 350 man.

sorry about last message in a mad rush ment to running my garage (zeds are more important tho)lol

hi thanks air flow meter is also konwn as maf sensor (mass air flow meter/sensor) it the black box behind the air filter (wot the 200 boy want as upgrade) sure you know what mean now, if not take the headlight panel of and it there cant miss it. yeah it would effect everything in regards to running and starting as it measure the air being drawn in. think its deff worth borrowing one from someone first be4 buying as could be wrong not sure how much tho. i have spare my self at mo but not close to you and i know ''andy stokes'' (supercar parts on ebay and net) sells them have his number some where also if any use but sure that zworld would have them also let me know how you get on

hi and thanks evryone for being good enough to say. just a note to say to daveb1976 i used to live in cambs and i think i have seen you around in the past several times whilst out in the z would like to know if you meet up in and camb for time to time as have never really been in to ''the seen'' in that respect. would be good to hear from you cheers

hi new member but mechanic for about ten or so years now will openly admit im no zed expert but not to bad at my job so im told. So i willl go out on limb and say to that it sounds like your air flow meter may be on it way out think it could just be that you only remember it running a liittle rough since your belt change as this was a certain spot in time that sticks in your mind and it the age old case of ''since you.....'' know that air flow meter aren't cheap new or second hand but if some one has one you borrow at your next meet to try simple to change it wont cost you a garage bill normally timing belts being out are quite tappie as your valves are bouncing off the pistons any one that thinks their compotent to change the belt should know somethings wrong so would supprised if you took it to some one trustworthy keep us up to date with it as i would like to know the problem even if no one else does

yeah for my sin's should have listen to my parents and those people that tried to make get up in the morning and go to that big building thingie LOL think they were called teach.. or something will try to help out with prob's but will admit to be being a little lacking in zed department but they have to suck, squeeze, bang, blow somewhere at least i know more than the jumped up zitty face t**t's at certain tyre fitting companys and your rev counter needle wont be wrapped round the pin LOL

just joined myself so thought i would say hi the car looks sweet:smash: not to sure on your brakes mine have always been good but have just bought a donner that had red stuff pads and i think ebc grooved and vented discs alround guys at the brakers that i got from said it stopped as fast in it went so expecting good things think that it pretty much a standard upgrade from what i can gather and the purches of braided hoses im told is worth the money also

:rofl:just thought i would say a quick hi to one and all. just joined and i reckon its about time i did as ive loved the car:bow: since i first saw one bac in the early 90's had to buy one when i could afford it and i found the rite one.couldn't get exactly what i wanted for the cash i had but close enough for a start :D:D have had it a few years now been off the road the past year almost though due to buying a house and virtually rebuilding it but has given me a chance to make up the last part of being what i wanted t/t rekon it should be on the road in the next few days or so then just a few battle scares to sorted (thanks to the brother-in-law) then she'll fitted with some long awaited goodies well enough about the mistress:x:(lol) back to the wife now. hope to hear from some of you hopefully make some new friends that won't get borded with zed chat:rofl:
