hey guys,

ok well im almost at the end of my tether with all the idling issues ive had with this car...

previous issues were faulty tps and afm to close to turbo.

now my problems are.....

starts fine, revs fine, but the idle cuts out and sounds like somethings starving it, sometimes it picks up and does it again othertimes it dies.

i pulled apart the cold start valve and it looks spotless inside, ive already cleaned the AAC vlave last time i had these issues, checked for vaccum leaks, found a few lil ones fixed them and still nothing.

these have started after i put new o rings in the injectors aswell as new top insulators, although the car wasnt really started before i did this.

mods:

RB20

Garrett 3040

plenum

gtr pump

stock injectors, afm

remap

any guidance is appreciated... i want to take the bloody thing to the track!!!

haha well....

was halfway throught taking off the plenum, when realised the fuel rail was loose, thought il tighten that up and try again. put everything back together....

turn the key, hmm pump sounds odd, almost like its running dry...

no standard guages...track only car...

check tank. bone dry.

and mafia yes it was a joke, im lucky if this thing makes 200hp...

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
