I have a problem with my 280zx. When I step on the gas it sputters real bad and seems to choke itself out. I've replaced the fuel filter many times and it runs great for a short time after changing the filter then it goes right back to the same problem. Any help you could give would be appreciated and I'd happily make a donation. thank you

you need to start by checking the fuel pressure. if you have less than 30 psi then you need to replace the fuel pump.
