Greetings fellow Z-Car enthusiasts! Up for consideration is this beautiful, polished 280ZX Turbo Airflow meter!

This beautiful part is original equipment for Nissan/Datsun 280ZX, Turbo models only 81-83....and i believe it is also for the First gen Pulsar Turbo. It will work in any and all 280ZX Turbos, both automatics & the 82/83 5 Speed.

I had this professionally polished years ago (expensive) to go into my 280ZX Turbo conversion, but have since decided to go stand alone, so this never got used and it is time to find it a new home. It is pretty much to me show quality.

The VR plate, variable resistor, is in perfect shape and the taper has basically no wear. The ATS (Air Temperature Sensor) which is the little plastic bulb that protrudes in the front, inside the meter, is tested and reads as it should.

In all my years in working on 280ZX's, at specialty shops catering only to Z's, this was probably the most mis-diagnosed part when things went wrong with the Fuel Injection. It almost always was actually an issue with the pins on the ECU that dealt with the AFM, and not the AFM itself. So, I will gladly provide the buyer with useful information on how to more accurately tune the AFM with an accurate digital voltage meter. The Turbo version AFM operates in reverse of its non-turbo counterpart. Its return voltage reads down as airflow goes up. It is fed a 5VDC reference voltage then the first resistor before the taper drops this voltage to around 4.8, so as you swing the door from it's fully closed position to its fully open position you should get a linear voltage drop from 4.8 to about .10VDC at full open. If the measurement is anything above this the computer will never know that the engine is in full boost, and a lean condition and or inaccurate timing curves will result and the engine will never make the power, spit, sputter, hesitate and or ping.

I will give the winning bidder any info on how to properly check these readings. Trying to take readings with just an ohm meter is only half the story and you will NEVER be able to properly diagnose an AFM with just impedance.

That said, this AFM is absolutely perfect, beautiful and working, but might require a little spring tension adjustment on the flapper door once installed in your vehicle.

It is also sold as-is, no returns.

Watch craftsmen build the Alfa Romeo 4C

Hey, remember the Alfa Romeo 4C? Maybe the long lag between the two-seater's Geneva motor show debut and the launch scheduled for later this year (to say nothing of the car's maddeningly long gestation period) has left your memory a little rusty, but the workers at the Modena Maserati plant haven't forgotten about the 4C. Need proof?

Tony Williams-Kenny announced as Design Director, SAIC Motor

Wed, 19 Jan 2011

Tony Williams-Kenny has been announced as the new global Design Director of Chinese automaker, SAIC Motor. During his previous role as Design Director for SAIC Motor, UK, Williams-Kenny worked on various Roewe products, as well as being responsible for designing a new generation of MG models including the MG3, MG6 and MG Zero – the first concept car from the brand since 1985. When interviewed by CDN last year, we asked him how important design is in the company: "For me it's obvious SAIC gets the need for design and the need for a strong brand design relationship," he answered. "We have a really good review group at senior management level too, who actually want to be involved in design reviews and the decision making process." After gaining an MA in Automotive Design and a BA (Hons) in Transport Design from Coventry University in the UK in 1998, Kenny joined Mitsubishi Europe Design in Trebur, Germany as a designer.

Diesel fumes linked to illnesses

Wed, 30 Jul 2014

DIESEL exhaust fumes have been linked to a range of illnesses and long term health conditions from heart disease to diabetes. The fumes are a complex mixture of gases and fine particles containing contaminants including microscopic particles less than one-fifth the thickness of a human hair and small enough to penetrate deep into the lungs and bloodstream. Over a long period of the time, exposure to the fumes can raise the risk of potentially deadly blood clots and increase the risk of stroke by narrowing the arteries that carry blood to the brain.
