What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

DavidInIndy · 03-28-2014, 09:08 AM

I'm in the danger zone this morning (4 dots left on fuel), so I go for a fill-up ($3.66 for 93 octane btw). But this time, I try to put as much in her as I can...in fact, I even hear the "throat" getting full.

I start her up and I'm seeing full except the final two dots are not lit. Now previously it used to show a completely full tank, but lately in the last six months or so, I'm noticing that the last two dots are consistently not lit.

I'm sure someone else has experienced this. Pls shout out. Thx.

P.S. And I'm just waiting for certain Z horn dogs to chime in on the throat comment I made. It's friday...you know you want to!

I had this issue with my 40th. The dealer replaced both fuel senders (there are 2) and the problem went away. It was a warranty fix.

Unless the dealership pulls some crap. I never got mine replaced when I was having the issue of the last dot not lighting. They refused to unless it persisted for more than x months.

Hey thx ONZ. So now you got me looking up prices for these online, but let me ask you this. Would you consider this a fix for something that's only a "nuisance" or a "must do" fix?

last night i swapped emblems that is covering up a ding from a bed frame that fell on my rear bumper
last summer.

it's not a nasty hole or anything but there is definite scuffage that i could only
completely polish off and a recess area.

anyway while i was working on the emblems i was scratching my head wtf "Ings+1" meant...

and i realized it probably means 'Wings winning'..
the logo has a upward arrow before "Ings." in japanese up is "ue".

so if you put "ue" and ings together you get "ueings" or "wings".
the +1, i couldn't decode... probably means winning by one.

not sure...

anyway, the projects is done and will inspect my work when i get home tonight.

watch, with my luck it's tilted. lol

Thanks!

I have only seen one member try to get the A-pillar wrapped (or it might have been CF)

New 370z Widebody in the process!
