Hey guys as the description sez, my 93 s1 R33 auto line is stalling it is stock apart from a pod filter and turbosmart dual stage boost controller the car drives fine motor feels strong an clean through the rev range but when you back off for a split second it drops about 500 rpm then comes back up that happens under most condition's but sometimes when i pull up to a set of lights it has a really rough idle and when i go to accelerate it stalls i have no idea as to why this would happen and if anybody can help it would great

thanks for your time guys

Dude, my guess is the AFM (air flow meter)...it is what was wrong with mine. Most common problem i think.

[Dischord]

could it be from putting on a pod filter ?? it still drives really well it just doesn't like to stop/idle do you know off a way to test them?? thanks for the reply nobody else seems interested

I have the same problem.

Clean the throttle body and it should stall less.

Barring that, do a change of the AFM like Oblivion said.

Also do you have a atmo BOV? Atmo BOVs cause stalling issues.

It's the stock Bov and the last time i checked the throtle body (bout six months ago) it looked clean....... but i will check it again what would i use to clean it ? and is there any way to test the AFM? cheers for the info..

thanks to both of you as i am relatively new to the world of skylines and tubros

trying to determin the cause of problems is a legnthy mind boggleing process

you have my thanks

My mechanic cleaned it for me - don't know how he did it but immediately after I noticed an improvement.

I am pulling the throtle body off today to clean it, is there a way to test the air flow meter?

B.P. ultimate feul and did the plugz about 8 months ago "bout 25 - 30,000km" nkg Iridium tips if i remember correctly i could check'em when i do the throtle body "wich i am now doing on the morrow"

thanks for all your help guys i cleaned the throtle body today and low and be hold no more stalling much more consistant idle but still has the "when you back off the throtle its it feels like the car stalls for about 500 rpm then comes back up to normal revs" problem could this be the PCV valve?? i have read that they arent as reliable when they get older ??
