Power steering pot and HICAS unit refurb
tandyn300 replied to Chris300's topic in 300ZX Help and Advice
Anything to do with maintenance of the PAS system can get messy quickly. To drain the upper part of the system use a syringe with a tube on the end to get as far down the source and return hoses as you can. You will need a couple of syringes as trans fluid and the piston rubbers don't get along! It is important to try to avoid letting air into the HICAS solenoid and so before drawing the reservoir fluid, pinch-off the hoses to/from the solenoid so as to retain fluid in that part of the hydraulic circuit. Isolating in this way should eliminate the need to bleed the rear power cylinder at the ba -
HICAS warning light comes on and stays on
tandyn300 replied to tandyn300's topic in 300ZX Help and Advice
For the hardy types who still have hydraulic HICAS in their machines... Ocassionally on a run, the HICAS warning light came on and stayed on. Steering function remained normal and the fluid level was ok and on a re-start, after say five minutes, light operation returned to normal - for a while. Conzult provided no clues either. The HICAS sensor is basicaly a magnetically actuated reed switch which is located at the lower end of the tube attached to the bottom of the reservoir cap. The metallic sleeve at the centre of the float is a magnet, which if maintained above the level of the reed s -

Repeating Stephens' question, have you checked the integrity of the vac circuit? If things improve with higher revs, but worsen with lower, this could indicate a leak. If you have not do so already, try disconnecting vac pipes one at time, smallest ones first (at plenum end). A no change result would identify a problem. And don't forget the larger and significant pipe at the back of the balance tube. BTW I use tie-wraps to secure the ends of the small/medium sized vac pipes.

I have Conzult on a netbook which would quickly identify individual problem cylinder(s). Vacuum leaks can cause idling problems and so a quick check of all connections for tightness would eliminate this as a contributory factor (affecting all cylinders). Moving up the more involved scale are the under bonnet electrical connections. Large temperature variation tend to promote contact corrosion and there are plenty of candidates on the Zed. If individual 'faulty' cylinders can be identified (e.g. by Conzult) then if gently waggling the connectors on top of the injectors causes a change in idling

I've recently fitted a Bosch also with no problems. BUT repeated flattening of the battery will Roger it capacity-wise. The main problem relates to extended periods of low or no charging. Even mickey mouse current drains can become significant over a couple of weeks. As a quick short term test - charge the battery - leave about four days disconnected from the car and then reconnect and try a start. If no-go replace battery. Then with or without batt replacement suggest you check the standing current load on the battery with everything 'off'- To do this disconnect the cable to the battery +ve t
