Fuel pump?
Yes, the 1979 Nissan 280ZX does have a fuel pump relay. This relay is responsible for controlling the power to the fuel pump, allowing it to operate when the ignition is turned on. If you're experiencing fuel delivery issues, checking the relay and associated wiring can be a good troubleshooting step.
Good! Save gas!
I have a 1979 280zx also and just changed it it is located near the gas tank under the car in the passenger side
To change the fuel pump on a 1979 Datsun 280ZX, first, disconnect the negative battery terminal and relieve fuel system pressure by removing the fuel cap and disconnecting the fuel pump relay. Next, locate the fuel pump, which is typically mounted on the frame rail or near the fuel tank, and remove the necessary screws or bolts. Disconnect the fuel lines and electrical connectors, then replace the old pump with the new one, ensuring all connections are secure. Finally, reassemble everything, reconnect the battery, and check for leaks before starting the engine.
I believe it is in the rear driver side of your car. When you turn your key to the on position you should hear it "kick in."
Yes, mine does have fuel injectors.
It is outside of the fuel tank close to the rear passenger wheel. Can't miss the big silver/chrome tubular device sticking out with lines and wires coming off it.
To change the fuel filter in a Nissan 280ZX Turbo, first, ensure the engine is off and relieve fuel pressure by removing the fuel pump fuse and running the engine until it stalls. Next, locate the fuel filter, which is typically found along the fuel line under the car or near the engine bay. Disconnect the fuel lines from the filter using a wrench, taking care to catch any fuel that may spill. Finally, replace the old filter with a new one, reconnect the fuel lines, and restore the fuel pump fuse before starting the engine to check for leaks.

I can't provide images directly, but you can find a fuel system diagram for a 1982 Nissan 280ZX in the vehicle's service manual or online automotive forums dedicated to vintage Nissan models. The diagram typically includes components like the fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel filter, fuel injectors, and lines connecting them.
