I'm at a campground with limited tools on hand. :( I put another 4 gallons of gas in it. Now the fuel gauge shows 1 dot above 1/2 tank. I got the covers off of the fuel tank on the right side. I can hear phunk's fuel pump prime, but the stock fuel pump is quite. My thinking is that the stock fuel pump went roses up. :mad: Tomorrow, I,m renting a U-haul truck and trailer to get the Z home on Tuesday. Then I will have all of my tools to use.

Sounds like Low fuel pressure. Call nissan1, if you have extended warranty they help with towing.

No clue. Maybe it needs a dyno tune since it's still running the out of box tune from Sam@GTM. I sent them my datalogs a year ago, and I never heard anything since. Been doing this for over a year. No codes. I'm thinking it's too rich or something.

Made it home. The wife told one of her friends, "Poor Nismo. It got an upset fuel pump. It no worky." At least she can put some humor into it. Now the work beginning. When I find out what's wrong. I'll up date this thread. ;)

Not yet. Working 12hr nightshifts don't leave much time for anything. My next days off are Monday and Tuesday. So that's when I plan on digging into it. ;) phunk gave me some directions in which to go in. :tiphat:

Up-date. Got it fixed. :tup: Self-inflicted problem. :shakes head: When I installed phunks road race fuel pump. On one of the fuel hoses. I put the hose clamp too low on the fitting. This allowed the hose to slip off of the fitting over a period of time. :shakes head: I would like to thank phunk for all of his help in getting this straighten out. :tiphat: :tup:
