ok, wondering if anyone has any thoughts..

took my car to a mates place to test an ignitor pack he had.. his didn't work so we put mine back on and now i have a permanent miss, and its an 'oh my god id rather be driving the magna right now' kinda miss..

Multimeter tested the loom and that was fine, have replaced ignitor pack, coils and spark plugs and miss is still there big time..

any thoughts?

did the old unplug each coil one by one but none made any noticeable difference...

am stumped..

What AFM are you running? double check wiring make sure connections are 100% and i'd be trying a different afm.

if its doing it at idle its not going to be a strane thing, so rule out coil packs.

maybe injectors. Did you get them cleaned and flow tested? should be checked for leakage and or large flow rate differances.

injector loom? did you change injector plugs?

doesnt sound like vaccume leak.

i'd be semi suspicious about the 26 ecu./ modded

what are the injectors scalled at?

running NGK BP6RES thingy's at .8 gap, as ive always run.

Z32 running on it, car was tuned fri night, new plugs on sunday, was driving around for 2 hours before going to my mates place and testing his ignitor pack, thats when everything went pear shaped.

Injectors seem to be all firing from what we can tell. They were cleaned and flow tested when arrived, GMB got that sorted :D

Injector loom was properly covered up and appears intact. will have my mate down to test whole loom properly. Also gonna get friend down to double check powerfc too if possible.

Car was running perfect all weekend, one change and its fubar lol..

last night i changed coils, plugs and ignitor pack. when removing old plugs, i found cyl one plug split in half at the top of the plug, and cyl 4 plug was all wet with fuel.

Hmm, that looks like the mark they put on every chip to tell you which way around to install they chip. Whenever I have burnt chips (and I have blown a few :) ) they generally burn in the middle and they smell pretty funky...

that photo is not of my one lol, my one does have a nice hole burnt through the number 5 on the chip.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
