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 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.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      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.

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.

      Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂
