I recently aquired an 1985 300zx that has been in the family since new. I have a full service history from Nissan as my family kept very good records and the dealer was the only one allowed to open the hood on this vehicle.It has sat for the last 4 years with only starting and driving it about 1/2 a mile once a month just to turn over the engine and move the tires. T he problem I am having now is that one morning all the warning lights on the dash came on and stayed on. The A/C gas light also came on and the A/C no longer works. I am just starting to learn about these cars so any info to point me in the correct direction would be helpfull.

first step is to open the owners manual. second step is to buy a Haynes manual. third step is to download a factory service manual from http://www.xenonz31.com

the answer is: freon level is low.
