Fault code to puzzle you
I would say injection on to closed valves due to timing belt alinement

What was the last thing you bought?
2 stroke oil for the Brush cutter, £3.04 for 1/2lt
-
13 PSI with no boost upgrade??
Is the solinode valve of the profecB stuck in a closed position giving you higher boost
-
car over fuelling
more lhan likley it will be o2 sensor faild or ecu temp sender Allan

Other drivers and your Zed

The resister is fitted to the annode which is the shorter leg of the two. The led will not illuminate when the resister is on the wrong leg so you cant get it wrong.

R1 in the diagran should be 470 ohm for a 3.5volt LED, if you buy from maplin the sales guy will work out the correct resistor for the LED you buy. Hope this helps Allan

you will need a resistor in line with the positive feed to the led, the value depends on the voltage of the led updated diagram

Help please cutting on spool
If you have an after market bumper with a large air vent and a low filter the wet will get on the fine heated wire in the MAF housing and cool it giving the same result as a Maf fail

Exhaust sensor are cat heat sensors IIRC if you have a dect these will not be connected , just dangling some where around the mid section of the exhaust area. As these are in the open air they will give a fault code and a warning light Ok I have just looked at the fault code on 33 and 53 this is a fault with your o2 sensor lhs and rhs, this is now becomming a more common problem as most have never been changed, these will still be conected in your car as they deturmin the air/ fuel ratio through the ecu. If your o2 sensors are faulty the ecu will work out an average setting to alow the car to still function, although it will be on the rich side to stop det. You need someone with a conzolt to realtime diagnose the O2 sensor fault. The O2 sensors are in the down pipes from the turbos Hope this helps Allan

The Maf measures the amount of air passing through it so when you open the throttle it incresses the air flow if the MAF is not giving the reading to the ecu the ecu will shut down the engine at 2500rpm, the latent increece of rpm will take it up to 2800rpm, which is where you are cutting out. You need to do an ECU test, this will tel you if anything is giving a fault code. Please do a search it will help you http://www.ttzd.com/tech/diagnostictech.html

See in the for sale section I think Jimmytt has two for sale By the way sign up as a full member its the best 20quid you will spend on your Z http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=136285

That will be the MAF needing replacement, see if someone has one you can borrow. Disconecting it will just give you the same fault. You can do an ecu check or put it on Conzolt to check it out too. Allan

I think you have answered your own question. You would be better getting a good tt and spending your time on that. Allan
