1990 300zx NA tests to ensure that all parts are working properly?
Hello, I'm new to these forums and I'm 16 years old. I'm working on a 1990 300zx NA so I have a car to drive. My uncle took care of this car very carefully and gave it to my other uncle to take care of for a while, he didn't end up taking care of it. I took it in and fixed up some stuff but I am wondering if anybody can give me like a list of tests to run that will ensure that all parts are working properly. If anybody can do this it'll be greatly appreciated.

Bruh... There are a lot of components which contribute proper measurements to the ECU as well as multiple mechanical adjustments to ensure proper air/fuel metering and correct ignition timing. The VG30DE(TT) is definitely not the kind of engine you would want to learn basic automotive mechanics. Are you experiencing any drivability issues or engine operation problems?

No, the car runs perfectly and has 67.6k miles. It's also an NA, not a TT.MarkerZ32 wrote:Bruh...

Drive it till something happens. He put TT in parentheses because the engine itself either Na or TT is quite a complex beast and not much of a beginner's vehicle.
