lately when ive been slowing down and stopping at a stand still my revs will jump from about 500-1000??? my mate thinks it may be a vacuum leak and we had a look to see if we could find a problem but nothing a more thorough check will be done soon. any ideas on what it could be??

Its a Skyline/RB problem. Its the AAC valve (On the side closest to the firewall) Pull it off carefully and more then likely it will be full of oil and gunk.

Clean it all out, if it still doing it the valve might need replacing. If its not all of that, then I have no idea. But more then likely it will be the AAC valve.

definitely give the aac valve a check.

You'll be suprised. It's most likely packed with carbon and crap.

A simply clean out with carby cleaner will make it feel like it's brand new.

That'd be my first point of call. After that, i'd check other things like afm etc.

Its definately the AAC valve. When I just bought my car, I had the same problem of rev hunting. Also if I press the clutch and turned the wheel even a little bit, my car would die because of the rev hunting. I was thinking I had bought a dud but after I cleaned the AAC valve, she's as smooth as can be. Definately worth doing even if your car isn't rev hunting and stalling..... yet.

hey guyz i got the same problem as ur all having where can i take my car to get them to look at the ACC

thanks

chris

I'd say do it yourself and spend the money on something else. All you need to do is take it off, pull the 4 or 5 pieces apart and clean them with carby cleaner. Not difficult to do at all, just follow the directions in the tutorial posted on the site and you should be fine.

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
