My 92 300zx has 80k miles on it, it misses out when I'm coasting and idle
is not real eratic but not steady. I tried doing the diagnostics check on
it and the code comes up #55, which is no faults.

Ask this question on www.twinturbo.net or www.300zxclub.com . I would do a
search through the posts before I asked though.. They aren't the most
friendly people on earth if the question has been asked before.. Good
luck..

If it was me I would look at the fuel filter to start with.

Yea a fuel filter need to flow lots of fuel when coasting and at idle,
that's probably what it needs...

Now that I read it another time. I must agree with the sarcastic statement.
You prolly right.. For some reason I was thinking, he was talking about
holding one speed was an issue. I musta read it and not payed any
attention..

Still no reason to be an @ss though.

I've never seen a fuel filter fix a running problem on a FI car in 25 years
of working on cars yet everyone wants to sugest it as the first fix. Maybe
because it's a cheap part anyone can replace?
