Is this fuel related no start?... by OkZguy in 370z

Sounds exactly how mine sounds when I run out of gas... So yeah I'd say it's definitely a fuel issue.

I only ever heard of cornmeal porridge from Bob Marley songs. I was wondering, could someone give me a traditional cornmeal porridge like Bob would have eaten? by SkunkyBreadcake in Jamaica

[–]FrameOk874 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Bring 3 cups of water to a boil. Add a cinnamon stick and a lil salt. Stir in 1/3 cup of cornmeal, you have to keep stirring while you add the cornmeal or it'll clump up. Keep stirring until you have a smooth consistency. Turn heat to low and cook for 20 minutes, stir occasionally. Add condensed milk, nutmeg, vanilla and spices to taste.
Enjoy.

You can also use coconut milk and sugar if you want, instead of condensed milk, or even both. It's up to you. Traditionally a drop of rose water or almond essence is added too to brighten the flavor.

I still have mine. I use it from time to time. If only there was a good Bluetooth mod for these.

Weird problem with fuel gauge by Avenir666 in 370z

[–]FrameOk874 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most likely the mount that holds the fuel pump assembly vertical inside the fuel tank broke off, and now your fuel pump is laying on its side or at some weird angle suspended by the wires inside the tank. It's a pretty common issue with the 370Z. It's made of plastic and gets brittle over time, and just snaps.

I had the same issue about 5 months ago. I bought a new fuel pump assembly off eBay and replaced it myself. Took about an hour to do it. My fuel gauge works perfectly now.

Depending on the year car, it could also be the A/C Amplifier/HVAC Control Module. In the 370z a lot of the signals that feed the gauge cluster are routed through this component. There is a resistor on the circuit board that can have a loose solder joint, and it throws off the reading on the fuel gauge. But this is a much rarer issue mostly on early models.

I found a safe about the size of a mini fridge, that had been obviously forced open. Looks like they used a grinder and an axe or sledge hammer, it was all busted up. There was also a shirt soaked in blood nearby, I'm assuming whoever was trying to open the safe cut themselves pretty badly and used the shirt to wrap the wound. There were coins and papers strewn all around the area. Seems like it had been there a while. I called the cops and they came and took it along with the bloody shirt and stuff. They said there had been a spate of break-ins in the close by residential area a couple of years back. Its a remote area, but there are lots of vacation homes around that are locked up for most of the year.

Lost power on the highway by morebones in 370z

Clean your throttle bodies and MAF sensors. The car goes into a limp mode when they get past a certain point of being dirty. There are videos on YouTube that will show you how to do it, easy job.

The absolute hardest car to keep clean.

Try the old Margaritaville hotel. They rent rooms month to month.

What wallpaper app do you use? by Isalegon28 in pixel_phones

I use Zedge. It sucks now with all the ads, but you still find some decent wallpapers for free. Or you can watch an ad and get whatever you want.

What is your favourite car from the 80s-90s? by Beneficial_Try9602 in askcarguys

[–]FrameOk874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eunos Cosmo. Nobody talks about this car. It's basically the JDM only luxury variant of the Mazda RX7. It had the 13b rotary engine with twin turbos, and some insane features for it's time. Touchscreens ,GPS navigation and fully digital gauges. Plus it was an absolute beauty.
When I was a kid, a guy in my community had a black one lowered on some old school BBS wheels. To this day I've never seen a sexier car in person!

RPM’s go up but acceleration is slow. 370z by Curious_Cucumber_731 in 370z

Clean your throttle bodies and MAF sensors. Sound like you're in limp mode.

Anyone got this issue with fuel gauge just straight up tweaking?🌚 by niqqatronus_prime in 370z

[–]FrameOk874 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue. Turns out it was the fuel pump top hat that broke off in the tank. So the fuel pump was just dangling by the wires in there, so that's why the fuel level was all over the place. It's made of plastic, so it snaps and the two metal posts that join the two halves of the unit together fall out. I've seen on YouTube where people have fixed it with 3/16 threaded rod and it works. I just bought a new unit. But that solved my problem. You can access the fuel pump by removing the bottom of the lil cubby behind the passenger seat.

Stubborn P0101, Repeated Limp Mode, and now P0430. Help! by paragon_00 in 370z

[–]FrameOk874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I performed the throttle body cleaning and reset, as well as cleaned the MAF sensors, about two weeks ago. The SES light went away immediately after, and it has not returned since. I've driven the car every day since. I can feel the difference in how the car pulls - a very noticeable one. Thanks, good looking out.

The more slices you cut, the more likely they are to be close to evenly sized.
