Anyone have an r32 that stalls after getting up it?

[Guest pondy]

I saw some guys that had this problem a while ago, and were talking about changing the earth on the fuel pump. I had the same problem, and i fixed it on the weekend. Took me about half an hour, and made the car more responsive, stop it stalling after getting up it (say when i pulled up at the lights and put my foot on the clutch after a decent race). I just generally runs better too... let me know if anyone out there has this prob, and i'll tell you how to fix it.

I've got that problem, when drive a bit hard then clutch it the car just dies, sometimes the revs just go down to 200rpm then goes back up, feels like its gonna stall but doesn't.

Bloody pain in the ass, you dont know when your car is going to stall.

Would love to know how to fix this problem

i have got the same problem with my R33. I posted the thread stalling and uneven reving. I have spoken to a few ppl and they say it is the fuel pump, if so i was thinking about upgrading it with an R33 GTR pump or something similar. Would anyone be able to tell me how much a GTR pump will cost 2nd? And also if it will fit.

Ok, what you need to get hold of is, a can of good carby cleaner, and old tooth brush, a can of wd40. You prolly wont think this will work, cos its so damn easy. You need to disconnect the piping that comes from the intercooler, to the intake manifold. (I'm not a mechanic, so bare with me, dont know what the parts are called). You'll see what i mean in the picture that i attach. You need to get access to the throttle body (the bit circled in the picture). Once the pipe is detached, you'll see a butterfly machanism in there, open the throttle. Mine was so dirty, there was a black ring of filth in there, it was so bad, that the butterfly would not close properly, which i think was the cause of the problem. Spray heaps of carby cleaner in there, and scrub away witht the tooth brush. That throttle body must be sparkling clean. Also, spray some wd40 onto the spring mechanism that the accel cable is attached to. This will lube it up, and it will operate smoothly. Open and close it over and over, to make sure it is working properly. THIS IS WORTH CHECKING OUT. My car is running so much better now, its more responsive, and hasn't come close to stalling. The car will run like a pig, when you first start it, run it for about 5mins to clear out the carby cleaner.
