Engine spits and sputters when driving
Low fluid in the fuel tank can move around and cause the fuel tank to draw in air
Prevent fuel starvation on the 370Z by keeping the gas tank closer to FULL
370Z may enter accessory mode but won’t start and the steering wheel won’t unlock
A broken electronic steering control lockout (ESCL) module can keep the steering wheel from unlocking. If the steering wheel can’t unlock, the 370Z won’t start.
Engine ticking/knocking, especially when accelerating
