Hey recently i had a Bosch 040 and new oxy sensor fitted to my car as both of my old ones were stuffed. Now after the Bosch went in the car either cranks for a lot longer before the engine starts or it wont turn over at all and you need to pump the accel pedal to start it. Anyone got any suggestions as to the cause of this? Obviously its to do with the new pump but anyone know why. Once the car is going it runs fine.

Cheers

which cable is that? sorry got no idea what the earch cable looks like.

My experience with the bosch fuel pumps is the same. The pumps don't hold the fuel pressure once switched off due to backflow through the pump. This results in a longer priming period once the car has been sitting for a while hence the cranking required.

This is probably due to the clearances on these pumps which aren't like the stock units or the walbros which hold system pressure well. I installed a non-return valve in the delivery line of my previous car but it didn't improve things. My current skyline runs a walbro which I am very happy with. Functions better than stock pump IMO.

Hope this helps

So what your saying it that it is the pump and that is just how it is? Sometimes it just cranks and cranks and wont start but then when you turn it over again it will start.

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!

      You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
