    Default 1977 Datsun 280Z

    My wife has a 1977 Datsun 280Z. We've had some issues with it in the past.... Replacing parts here and there. It runs.....but not as well as it should. Here's the problem.... When we go to give it gas, it sputters and seems to be missing to a degree. Also wants to stall when giving it gas ..... All this while going down the street, not just revving it up when parked. We've replaced the plugs, checked the spark plug wires, ran a compression test, vacuum hoses checked..... Even checked the injectors.... New gas and all. We are about at wits end on this..... I'm sure it is a simple fix. I'm not wanting to take it to a dealership...most of the techs here don't seem to know much about a straight 6 with fuel injection. Any insight would be great. Seems to running a tad rich.

    Thanks in advance!
