What should th oil pressure be 1991 300 zx non-turbo?

User Avatar

Once the engine reaches normal operating temperture, the oil pressure should be somewhere between 25-40 psi. Even a pressure of from 15-25 is not something to be overly worried about.

Why would a 1988 Nissan 300zx head lights not turn on?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I had the same problem. The turn signal/headlight lever on the left of the steering wheel needs to be replaced, or at least the leads cleaned. Good luck finding a used lever - they are scarce.

So did I, Twice. The first time, replacing the turn signal lever worked great for 6 months. Now I have the same problem, with the lights turning off on me while driving at night.

Anyone know where I can get a used lever? They are no longer in production.

Where is the alternator on a 1990 300zx located?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It appears the alternator is low on the front of the engine on the passenger side. This link is how one guy replaced his. Truthfully, if you're asking where the alternator is, you probably shouldn't be attempting to do anything with it. I strongly suggest you search for the factory service manual for the correct year and buy it. They usually have reasonably good step by step instructions, and are invaluable for repairing your car.

Good luck!

What Nissan engine can you swap into a Nissan 300zx that has the VG30DE?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If it's a Z31 you can swap in the VG30DET. For the Z32 you can swap in the VG30DETT, or what some people do Rb26dett (skyline engine). The former is a easy swap the latter hard. I've even seen a SR20 (silvia), 2 liter all aluminum in a Z32. Car's pretty heavy for 4 cyl torque, but needless to say the sr wasn't stock.

I'd do the VG30DETT easy, pretty cheap, and awesome.

Asked by Wiki User

you have to modify UIM and LIM notch the frame of your car. unless you get turbo 2 UIM and LIM but you will still have to modify the manifolds to accept the N/A Block. Also don't scimp on your fuel system.

(I'm in the process of doing this myself)

What is normal oil pressure for a 1985 Nissan 300zx at idle and 55mph?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Cold start- 60 psi; warm to op temp- 30-40 @ 2500 rpm; idle approx 7 psi hot. BUT the sender unit for the OEM gauge is unreliable, fails, reads 0 one day different the next. Adaptors are available from Z31.com parts to install after market gauge kits. the capilliary tube type is most accurate as it works on direct oil pressure. Most OEM's do not use this as the real oil pressure fluctuautes as the revs rise and fall, "they" like a steady gauge reading, so electric compromises are built in. If in doubt, through out the OEM set up, go after market.

Can a bad distributor cause engine power failure?

User Avatar

Asked by BryanBrownfb2227

Yes, a bad distributor can cause the engine to fail to run, the distributor (distributes) a spark to the spark plugs that ignite the air/fuel mixture, if it is malfunctioning there might be no spark at all, there may be spark at only a few spark plugs, or the output may be intermittently bad which can make troubleshooting difficult.

What does a turbo intercooler do?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

An intercooler is placed in the airflow path between the turbocharger and the engine intake in order to cool the air after it has been compressed by the turbo. Compressing air heats it up. By cooling it back down, the air becomes denser. This means more air molecules go into the cylinder. This (when mixed with the proper amount of fuel) increases engine power compared to a non-intercooled engine.
