i have this exact same problem with my r33, only ever on cold starts, and only like 20% of the time, other cold starts it will be fine, but yea sometimes i start it and it trys to stall, revs drop to like 500, then when i touch the throttle it revs up and idles fine, weird problem

Yea ive got that problem on my r33 too, only started recently. i wouldnt know where this cold start valve is either, id appreciate a diagram or some instruction of where it is and how to get it out ect :cheers:

Ok just did a pretty extensive search on the subject and supposedly you cant clean the acctual cold start valve because its a bi-metal stip valve but the AAC valve can be cleaned and theres a DIY tutorial for that here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Di...mp;hl=aac+valve

But im going with the idea that the cold start valve is faulty and not opening properly/atall and therefore causing a difficult start.

Mine is only minor and is just an annoyance rather than a problem so im thinking there may be just a hesitation in the valve opening.

Anyway, ill give it a look tomorrow and let you know how i get on :cheers:

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
