Hey Guys,

Has anyone ever had problems with after market injectors? I have just had some 550cc SARD injectors installed and now the engine wont fire. It is definitely the injectors not working as the spark plugs are firing. If I spray a little brake cleaner in the inlet it fires a few times suggesting no fuel is getting into the cylinders. This is the first time I have ever upgraded injectors so is there anything “special” I should know?

Thanks

SARD had a bodgy batch of injector clips that basically need modification so they'll seat properly and make enough of an electrical connection for the injectors to fire.

If you have spark you have injector pulse so it's probably that.

Call Hioctane.com.au if you need an explanation on how to do it but my first place to check would be the clips.

Note: They look and feel like they connect but they're not actually touching enough to work.

I concur about the clips...i had same problem on cyl 6..took me a while to work out why she was only running on 5 cylinders. The little wire clips werent in all the way to make contact when the plug was clipped in.

A senario......

You have everything assembled, crank the engine a few times, i assume you get nothing apart from the starter motor turning the flywheel. You then remove the spark plugs, what is the condition of the tips?

1/ Clean and dry - lack of fuel; injectors

2/ Black and fouled - Too much fuel; ECU tunning

3/ Clean but wet (with fuel) - No spark; Coils, plugs, module, ignition, etc.

Tell us which option, above, is occuring.

Ash is correct, new injectors need a complete and full re-tune of the ecu, as the standard injector setting would have too big a time pulse thus flooding the engine with fuel.

possibly look at pulling the plug off all together and plugging the wires directly into the injector pins, also check to see if they are pulsing, should be able to feel it through the body the injecter, or if not, grab a screw driver and pop your ear ont he end to listen for them clicking

I had the same problem. were the injector plugs supplied with the injector? if so they are not contacting. Have to machine the lugs off the injector so you can fit the plugs 180 around. its weird i know but trust me, will fix problem.

After looking at it and speaking with my mechanic I recon you are spot on. This weekend when I have time I will do exactly what you said to do and I will let you know how it all goes.

[it will be the problem, i only know because i spent a day trying to figure it out, but i had changed computer at the same time so i wasnt sure what it was, finally removed plugs and plugged harness in directly. All O.K.

      Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching

      Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.

      Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
