today i had the intake pipe made up, the plumb back pipe was removed, and the oil line was blocked (the one to the inlet). AFM is still at the end of the intake pipe. i know they had to remove the cooler piping so they could fit it all on properly then they put it back on. i thought it could be a leak or something, but i couldnt seem to hear it anywhere.

there is also a winding noise on idle, not the intake, something else. it just started happening after i put the intake pipe on. but i doubt its from it, sounds like its comming from some where else.

when i slow down, if i put it to neutral and then press the brakes (to slow down) it stalls as it drops way past its idle and doesnt come back up.

what can be causing this problem?

thanks alot, issa.

rb20det, r32. atmo bov, full turbo back 3" exhaust, intake pipe, pod.

its becuase of the BOV, it releases all the air thats gone thorugh the AFM and teh ECU overfuels the motor. did you just put the atmo BOV on too? or did you make your stock one atmo?

nah the BOV was on there before, it just started happening 2day.

thanks, issa.

I am relatively new to this *skylines in general* but from reading some threads about atmo bovs, they can cause stalling!

Whoa way to slow lol.

maybe tap into the new intake pipe so that will have to 2 outlets as the stock one...try putting the stock rubber one back on and see if that fixes it, if it does then its something to do with the new intake pipe otherwise its something else to look into

I woulda said atmo bov too, but you say it was working fine before the new intake pipe was made up.

So second i ask, the strange noise isn't from your PCV system is it?... i assume thats the "oil line" you speak of? Is the motor sucking air through the PCV valve "leak"?

If your unsure how the OEM blow-by recirc is setup, or how to setup a oil / air separator, hit the search.

Hi mate

I assumed you blocked the oil line that goes straight up and leads out of the rocker cover. I have been told (if you dont have air breathers) this can cause excess pressure inside your engine and is not a wise move. Also a major EPA violation. Sorry to hijack the thread just thought you should know. :cool:

doesn't matter if the BOV was *apparently* working fine before you changed things.

Since you've changed the Intake, its probably changed the characteristics of the air flow to allow the BOV to cause stalling (ie allowing more airflow etc)

Block the BOV up and I bet it stops stalling.

When are people going to learn - These systems need to be sealed, thats how they are designed. You absolutely can't install a BOV because they are not meant to be there.

Come on Mafia, its not even 10am... :cool:

You know, i heard the mafia was created when the little children in Greece that mined the caves for sulphur (black powder) where robbed! 10yo robbed of thier precious yellow sulphur!

anyway, back to the "omg ma shits f_ckd" thread.

My $50 I-net dooolers is on PCV

lol come on, that was a nice reply.

But the thread starter should also check the IAC valave just in case.

I still think the better intake is allow for the BOV to cause bigger fluctuations in the air charge to cause stalling.

i already tried blocking the vac line so the bov stays closed, just made it flutter more :D

is this true? has anyone else heard of this.

thanks, issa.

Hahah, it was i guess :D

Iv a v.close mate who has a intake pipe made up for a S14. Aftermarket BOV, but still recirc... the new pipes location for the BOV recirc gave him skethyness on gear shifts.

is this true? has anyone else heard of this.

thanks, issa.

Sure have, some retard called GeeTR mentioned somthing about that...

Like i said, learn how your PCV system works, and then trace your setup, make sure your not pressurizing your crankcase, or missing a one way valve in the PCV setup. Blocking cam breathers farks your motor, leaving em free farks EPA. Stock ingests through plenum one way on the over run, and ingests at turbo intake under boost.

If you dont like searching, i can spend the time to explain how it works

please do. thanks alot youve helped me understand quite abit more sofar.

i know how it recirculates the air, but i was anaware about the oil line untill yesterday. whats the best way to fix this problem, and keep my motor running sound.

thanks alot, issa.

When it comes to atmo BOV's you can never be quick enough!

Threads with stall in the title = flame on! :D

if you bothered to read, i said i had the bov on before and i didnt have this problem before.

if you bothered to read, i said i had the bov on before and i didnt have this problem before.

I did bother to read it and just made a commentary about what normally happens on this forum when stalling or atmo bov's are mentioned. I have no opinion one way or the other. Perhaps you'll notice that I wasn't replying to your post, denoted by the quote in my post.

    • I know why it happened and I’m embarrassed to say but I was testing the polarity of one of the led bulb to see which side was positive with a 12v battery and that’s when it decided to fry hoping I didn’t damage anything else
    • I came here to note that is a zener diode too base on the info there. Based on that, I'd also be suspicious that replacing it, and it's likely to do the same. A lot of use cases will see it used as either voltage protection, or to create a cheap but relatively stable fixed voltage supply. That would mean it has seen more voltage than it should, and has gone into voltage melt down. If there is something else in the circuit dumping out higher than it should voltages, that needs to be found too. It's quite likely they're trying to use the Zener to limit the voltage that is hitting through to the transistor beside it, so what ever goes to the zener is likely a signal, and they're using the transistor in that circuit to amplify it. Especially as it seems they've also got a capacitor across the zener. Looks like there is meant to be something "noisy" to that zener, and what ever it was, had a melt down. Looking at that picture, it also looks like there's some solder joints that really need redoing, and it might be worth having the whole board properly inspected.  Unfortunately, without being able to stick a multimeter on it, and start tracing it all out, I'm pretty much at a loss now to help. I don't even believe I have a climate control board from an R33 around here to pull apart and see if any of the circuit appears similar to give some ideas.
    • Nah - but you won't find anything on dismantling the seats in any such thing anyway.
    • Could be. Could also be that they sit around broken more. To be fair, you almost never see one driving around. I see more R chassis GTRs than the Renault ones.
    • Yeah. Nah. This is why I said My bold for my double emphasis. We're not talking about cars tuned to the edge of det here. We're talking about normal cars. Flame propagation speed and the amount of energy required to ignite the fuel are not significant factors when running at 1500-4000 rpm, and medium to light loads, like nearly every car on the road (except twin cab utes which are driven at 6k and 100% load all the time). There is no shortage of ignition energy available in any petrol engine. If there was, we'd all be in deep shit. The calorific value, on a volume basis, is significantly different, between 98 and 91, and that turns up immediately in consumption numbers. You can see the signal easily if you control for the other variables well enough, and/or collect enough stats. As to not seeing any benefit - we had a couple of EF and EL Falcons in the company fleet back in the late 90s and early 2000s. The EEC IV ECU in those things was particularly good at adding in timing as soon as knock headroom improved, which typically came from putting in some 95 or 98. The responsiveness and power improved noticeably, and the fuel consumption dropped considerably, just from going to 95. Less delta from there to 98 - almost not noticeable, compared to the big differences seen between 91 and 95. Way back in the day, when supermarkets first started selling fuel from their own stations, I did thousands of km in FNQ in a small Toyota. I can't remember if it was a Starlet or an early Yaris. Anyway - the supermarket servos were bringing in cheap fuel from Indonesia, and the other servos were still using locally refined gear. The fuel consumption was typically at least 5%, often as much as 8% worse on the Indo shit, presumably because they had a lot more oxygenated component in the brew, and were probably barely meeting the octane spec. Around the same time or maybe a bit later (like 25 years ago), I could tell the difference between Shell 98 and BP 98, and typically preferred to only use Shell then because the Skyline ran so much better on it. Years later I found the realtionship between them had swapped, as a consequence of yet more refinery closures. So I've only used BP 98 since. Although, I must say that I could not fault the odd tank of United 98 that I've run. It's probably the same stuff. It is also very important to remember that these findings are often dependent on region. With most of the refineries in Oz now dead, there's less variability in local stuff, and he majority of our fuels are not even refined here any more anyway. It probably depends more on which SE Asian refinery is currently cheapest to operate.
