Message Hi everyone, I bought a 1994 300ZX TT that my wife will be driving daily. We brought the car to a 300ZX specialty shop for a tune up and the experience was a huge disaster. First they left a huge vacuum hose off so the car died when I got home, then after that was fixed, the car started bucking pretty hard at low rpms. I brought the car back and they said they had the throttle body blade incorrectly adjusted. The car runs better now but not as well as before I dropped it off. Really bad experience so I am going to try to fix this myself hopefully.

The problem I have is it jerks when when you give the car gas. It feels like the car doors not have any throttle lower than 10% so it isn't very smooth. Let off the pedal and it sort of decelerates a little hard and then barely touch the pedal and it slams into 10% throttle. I tried looking up the symptoms but I am not sure I am looking up the correct search terms.

Can anyone point me into the right direction? Any Z car recommendations in northern California?
