update:

I changed the spark plugs on the weekend and guess what. The olf ones were black as night... Heaps of carbon on them. The problems is that it is still flat spotting at .8mm spark plug gap.

I will get the car on the dyno this weekend if I can and see if it running rich. Besides the AF ratio's what else should I be looking for on the dyno??? temp corrections etc????

Ps, ECU is a PFC Pro

Got the car booked in on the dyno on friday, is there anything other than the good old fuel ratio's to lookout for that could be causing it to run rich at certain points when on the road?

Anything else to lookout for that could be causing the flat spotting. I have new plugs, new coils so far...

SK,

Some questions on one and two?

1)How can I test the acceleration enrichment and partial throttle openings?

2)Where are the acceleration enrichment settings and Cold and hot start settings in the PFC HC.

Sorry to bug everyone, but I can just see me leaving the dyno place with the AF ratios looking fine and me having no real progress on this issue...

1. That’s a full power, WOT test. So it is 99% irrelevant, how much of the time do you drive around at WOT? . More importantly, what are the A/F ratios as partial throttle openings? At idle? What are the acceleration enrichment settings? Cold and hot start settings?

2. Together with the fuel in the catch can, it is the black smoke on start up that has me concerned. Give it a run on the dyno, but make sure you test idle, cruise, acceleration enrichment, partial throttle openings etc.

3. I would also have a good look at the fuel pressures, just to be sure that increasing fuel pressure is not the problem.

4. If that doesn’t show up anything then I would have the injectors flow tested. If one is rich for some reason, then the other 5 might be lean, giving 12 to 1 on average.

>_< cheers :laugh:

UPDATE:

I got the car on the dyno the other day and the AF ratios were all over the place. Thing was though they were not consistantly all over the place. We could not get it to follow a consistant path on the map tracer???

After a lot of dicking around we decided to check the the Air Meter Voltage and guess what? The volts were all over the place, which lead me to beleive that the AFM was shot.

It turn out that the plug was loose and once we snaged a zip tie around it she was puring like a kitten without any flat spotting :blink:

Now I just have to wait and see if any more fuel turns up in the catch can, if it does then those injectors are going to have to come and and get tested. :{

Been giving it a good run over the last couple of days and it seems that it is flat spotting at the top of 2nd gear, but not all the time???

Is there a way to tune the accelleration enrichment on the road without a lamda sensor?

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
