Hey guys,

I have recently had my car fully retuned & since getting it back, everytime i shut the car off it seems to want to keep going. What i mean is when i turn the key off the engine is still trying to run, but sounds as though its out of fuel or something. Why wont it just fully shut off when i turn the key?? The tuner seems to think the pistons have carbon build up on them??

Any help would be great! Thanks

sounds bout rite. carbon on your valve/pistons can glow, causing a deisel effect. basically the air and fuel are stil getting sucked in but instead of the spark plug igniting the mix, the glowing carbon buildup is. you should get it fixed, as at high revs, this could cause detonation, and demolish your engine.

Sounds like your injectors are incorrectly wired up to 12V constant.. meaning when IGN is turned off, the spark continues. It's only when the fuel in the rail is expended that the motor cuts out.

You don't have a turbo timer hidden away or anything like that?

I'm not sure about the carbon continuing to burn.. but it's possible in theory.

Is there any way to get this carbon off?? Im not sure if he touched the injectors? I assume not.

He mentioned that its running 22deg timing?? Its just got me puzzled, as this never happened to it before it went in for the tune. & he cant think of what it might be also.

Is it bad that this is happening??? Will it wreck my engine??

thanks for your help!

If it wasn't doing it before the tune then it _has_ to be something your mechanic has done and he needs to fix it. Stock ign timing for an R32 GTR is 20degBTDC, so 22deg is not too far out. I'd suggest that your mechanic needs to look at the work he's done and if he's any good he should be able to identify the things that would cause or contribute to the problem.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.

      Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂

      Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
