Hi all...

My car is pinging a bit under load and it's not to do with fuel becaused I'm using the 98 RON fuel... It doesn't matter how much I retard of advance the timing, it still pings...

If a knock sensor has come off, can this caus the engine to ping???

In that thread mate, what do you mean by "drive pulley keyway"? You mentioned that is was loose? Are you talking about the bolt that goes through to hold the pulley on?

This pinging only seemed to happen after replacing the exhuast cam and the Crank Angle Sensor... Maybe the CAS is faulty yeah????

On mine it was the pulley at the bottom of the motor that drives the timing belt and the half moon key had worn a bit so the pulley was rotating on the shaft, only very slightly but enough to put the whole system out.

Didnt you just have a problem relating to the CAS? I'd try another.

    • This sounds like someone who would have owned an R33 in their past... It's okay, I'm 100% picking up what you're putting down Mark.
    • Just back on what was raised about jacking off the the tow/tie down point on the front of cars. I've used it plenty. I've also watched it on a car where you could see it move the front end of the car. It was like the front end/whole car being tweaked and twisted a bit. I will say, I struggle to find good jacking points on MOST cars. The ones that have good points, I then normally struggle to find a jack tall enough to make the car change height!   One of my go to points for either the jack, or the axel stands though, is either a suspension pickup point, OR a subframe to chassis major bolting point. I actually think its the subframe on my R33 that has a bit of a bend in it, from being jacked in the middle too. However, it could have been one of my many other cars I've had over the years! Or it could also be the from me jacking it up, and the fact the top of the front radiator support isn't there, so it can allow the front of the car to move and bend etc.
    • My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.
    • Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway  
    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
