1/4 tank from brisbane to dayboro with my van sitting on 3-6K going through the hills. (it will do high RPM but chews fuel doing it.)

my fuel light was flashing as I came into the showgrounds.

NFI From sunnybank to asply and half way to the meet point and back to aspley 23 liters

then fill up at the servo out the front

then from the servo to the meet the quick way and back gauge says only 1/4 used but i don't believe it

Jeez, how'd u go getting to the nearest fuel station? Was there one in town? Didn't really pay attention.

well i got a stagea (RB25DET) - but i think my sensors are gone. took up 30L of fuel to get from Noosa to EightMilePlains and taking it easy the whole way :P

so about 20L per 100Kms :(

I think i need to get myself a tune, new AFM and new O2 Sensor and a major service :(

50k around town + Kinga to Goldy 100-110Kph cruise cont. = 348 Km used 32.63 ltrs (9.43L/100Km)

Goldy to Aspley, Dayboro on to Kilcoy = 276Km used 32.84ltrs(11.89L/100km)

Kilcoy to home= 134KM (Yet to fill up)

10.42L/100K average (Not to shabby.)

From aspley to final meet = 1/2 tank.

final meet to my home = 1/2 and a bit.

no aircon too

That is not good...

My car with 'extensive' mods got 10.25litres per 100km on the day. Included all the city and country driving too. All with the air-con on.

it seems that im wasting abit too much fuel.

here are some of my results over the last couple of months

sorry they are in km/L not L/100kms

6.5km/L

6.7km/L

7.4km/L

6.8km/L

7.2km/L

so thats an average of 6.93km/L

have replaced the O2 sencor didnt make any see able difference, are running bp 98 for the last two tanks hoping that that will start to make a small improvement.

I have a pod filter with no shelding, so was going to get an aftermarket air box for it, any other ideas on improving km/L ? fuel filter, to improve fuel pressure? better coils?

I do about 50/50 city highway driving from coopers plains to the valley for work.

Stock ECU and running a little more boost than standard? If so it'll be running stupidly rich, which will obviously have an effect on your economy. Do you drive with a bit of a heavy foot?

Other than that, check for air leaks, give it a service, change the filters etc.

yer, 10psi, drive it pretty nice tho, so should be in closed loop most of the time.

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
