hey guys the other day i filled her up and put some injector cleaner in the day after some strange things started to happen, after goin on a long drive 30km she starts to run like shit like theres no power and the whole car shakes and sounds more like a wrx, after leavin the car turned off for an hour start her back up and she runs fine again til another 30k's headin home, happened again two days later went to work stated doing it but when i was sitting at a set of light she went back to normal with all the power she had,

i ask my mec he said run her til she empty change fuel filter and fill with a fresh batch of fuel so there none of the injector shit left in the tank he said the stuff is bad and he is from x-speed in perth.

just wondering what you guys think

i think the injetor cleaner has gotten the fuel dirty with shit from in the tank cause i pulled the fuel filter off and black shit came out of, i mean BLACK shit

the mods i have done are

3" turbo back

front mount

pod

apexi neo and tuned

cheers guy? :rolleyes:

When was the last time you changed the filter? I've never had a problem with running injector cleaner.

I'd put money on the ignitor module - they have a habit of misbehaving when the get old and too hot.

i just changed the filter the other day to a new one, ive never had this happen, all through summer last year she ran fine just started the day after putting cleaner in the tank, only does it after 30 mins your so on a long drive to work freeway speeds

I had very similar symptoms, car would drive fine for a while then out of nowhere just start shaking and coughing and spluttering. Turned out to be my AFM so maybe look into that. You could take it off and clean the element with contact cleaner or something similar.

i had a look in the forum for other post with problems like mine so i tryed the cold down the module one when she started doing it sprayed it with freeze spray started her up she was running fine, i think its on the way out because the module is startin to make a very loud electric tickin nosie to that wasnt there before can hear it over the injectors pulseing

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
