mines fine, But shes been chewin fuel lately after i put in my R34 GTR fuel pump. Checked all lines no leaks looks ok. Thought I might clean my Pod again, and clean the AFM while im at it. its running really rich. And i just got a new O2 sensor thinking it would help ($180 :O ). still running rich..

*Edit* Oh no thats right, When i told nissan I go on SAU they gave me a $30 discount :D

Hey,

as others have said; carby cleaner or electronics contact cleaner works well.

If your AFM is constantly reading under what it should be (and thus, your

car is running slightly lean) this will help - you will find that mixtures will richen

up as the AFM now 'sees more air'.

If you're having problems with your AFM voltages going to 0 and the ECU going

into limp-mode this won't help. What probably _will_ help is the re-soldering sticky

(basically, cut the sealant off, remove the metal shield, resolder, replace and reseal).

Regards,

Saliya

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
