Please Help Me With Missfire Prob It Only Happens When Under Load I Cant Work It Out Checked Everything


Recommended Posts

hey guys this is really frustrating has anyone had this prob before , when it sits still it revs out but when under load on the road it just breaks down , i have put brand new coil packs in , changed the plugs for the 2nd time in one week that didnt fix it i got em gapped at .7 i checked all the loom wirng voltages earths cant track it down like i said when it sits still it revs out but when on road it just breaks down

im desparate for help if anyone could please help me out would be much appriciated .

dan.

afm mate. mine was doing the same thing, somtimes it would have no throtle at all and just stop. i would wind the engine over and it would fire but wouldnt run.

other times it wouldnt rev over 2 2.5 grand. it would just bounce there violently my tuner and i pulled it apart and fixed it . or u could just replace.

but that is were ide be starting.

there is an earth on the fire wall for the coils check that. check them all. iwould seriosly try afm first but. unplug it and plug it back in thats what i did to mine and it would work for a while anyway. if it runs the same with it disconected thats probably the prob. they wont rev past 2.5 rpm disconected

If the AFM is the problem (which is what i suspect to be the problem with my car too) does the car run super lean when it loses it's throttle while still revving and also when it missfires?

I've got a forged built bottom end and don't want to do any damage to it.

Thanks

    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
    • Sounds like a misfire. Check fuel pressure and don't even think about going into boost while it's like this unless you enjoy engine rebuilds.
