how do i do it. ive done numerous searches, but cannot find out how to exactly. ive read here and in the manual u need approx 0.6v closed and 4v fully opened.

i measured the signal cable (middle) when i disconnected the harness but from that side of things im getting battery 12v from the middle cable. from the TPS side i get nothing, obviously as ive disconnected the harness.. can someone help me adjust or check if my TPS is out of place?

cheers

tom9999 if ur car runs rich it may be a few different things. as long as its running rich its much safer than lean.

ok thanks heaps. one dude said its too rich and he said he was going to adjust the tps so yeah i didnt want him to just incase like you said safer to run richer than leaner.[i know skylines are meant to run rich]

tom9999 maybe also try replacing the O2 sensor and make sure the fuel pressure regulator vacuum hose is connected properly..

ive adjusted my TPS to 0.5v on my r32 and it has fixed my high idle problem.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      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.
