280zx

[Makesy]

Welcome to the forums!

I like the 280zx in its own way, and can definitely see the appeal.

Hopefully it won't need much work to get it on the road!

For replacing the fuel hoses on my I L28 used 8mm fuel injection rated hose. You can get it from a variety of places, but I got most of mine from Demon Tweeks in long lengths and cut it down as needed.

Be sure to check all your hoses through - you mentioned one hose had split, which would make me want to replace the whole lot. Not the worst job in the world, but it can get a bit frustrating removing the old stuff.

Morning, thanks for that advice.

I was dreading researching where to find all the different sizes of hose that I will need. Having seen the state of a couple of the fuel lines I think it would safe of me to replace all the hoses rather than be selective.

I decided to start from back to front, that way I can see some progress while I read up and understand what is required in removing engine and transmission in one section.

Tariq, am I right you're in Northampton? If you fancy professional help putting the window glass back in when you get to it, I can recommend Magic Windshields. He just put my 260z screen back in well for cheap.
