White smoke, spluttering, rattling, everything
Hi, in case no one mentioned or you didn't know you must do the timing with a timing light/gun not via the software (it will lie).. there are plenty of posts in the tech section about working on these old beasts, you can also find good info here: http://www.pexcom.com.au/z32cms/e107_plugins/content/content.php?cat.8 http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/tech/tech.aspx https://z32.wikispaces.com/ A free version of Conzult can be found here: http://300zx-twinturbo.com/conzult/downloads.htm and here are some tips on the info.... Right, so the free version of Conzult should show you: These values are only valid at idle and the values are linked. The engine should be fully warmed up. >Throttle Position (good reading TPS 0.44-0.46) > Timing ( will show set at 15 Deg, best to check with timing light) > IACV-AAC/V ( ideally 15% but a little out is OK) > Mas Air Flow 1.30v (may vary slightly) > Injector Pulse (2.2 msec, for std car) > Injector Duty (.61% for standard setup as well) > Water Temp (80 Deg C-84 Deg C) > Fuel Temp (25 Deg C-35 Deg C) > A/F Alpha 109% this is an average value and only works if you have fully functional O2-sensors and ideally you want this value to be close to 100%. any value over or under 100% means the ECU has to compensate with less or extra fuel to get the mixture right. Extreme compensations (> +/- 15%) usually mean something is wrong with either air (air-leaks) or fuel (injectors/fuel pressure) >On the free version there is only one readout for the O2, it should fluctuate up and down. Timing may show 25 BTDC if the P/N position switch is OFF (may be the case for a malfunctioning neutral switch or an auto to manual conversion.) the fuel temp values are ignored by the ECU for the most part, so not really important in respect to getting the car running better. another important one is battery voltage: should be between 13.7 and 14.3 Volt (at any rpm) If the value is off, it may indicate (future) problems with the alternator the timing should always be verified with a timing light. Also the later Zeds don't follow the 15 BTDC at idle rule. They work quite different and use a variable ignition timing system to get better emissions ratios. Because of this the timing hovers between 5-10BTDC at idle. And obviously autos idle higher than manuals (in neutral). I don't know how well conzult works with software newer than XP.. however I'm sure there are others on here than can offer more advise on diagnostics. best of luck.

Dot 5.1 brake fluid, race only?
exactly as you said... http://www.epicbleedsolutions.com/resources/faq/difference-between-dot4-and-dot51-brake-fluid/ and I guess.. you might as well use the dot 4 to clean it...

passenger side vac lines
so what else have you disconnected? are there any hoses not connected? did you check the recirc? it could have a problem. I know a lot of people remove bits and re-configure stuff, I can't see it being from the factory. has your's even got a carbon canister? and how about the recirc on the other side? good luck..

Fuel pump leak
have you take them out ? I assume (from memory) they are just screwed into holes in the metal (tank), so you're best bet is to get slightly bigger screws (as long a the tank isn't rusted)...

Targa drain fix question....
Hi, correction... the inside diameter is 10mm.. good luck copper pipe also comes in 10mm.. but you could use anything, not sure a smaller diameter pipe is best, in case it gets blocked..
