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

    • Not sure what you mean by electronic speedo drive.  Speedo reads fine up to 180 yes.
    • For anyone interested, this is my old graph from 2021, but I've plotted the previous setup curve onto it with a black pen. old setup was: pon cams, oem itbs and plenum, HPI manifold, hks 2835 pro S .87ar rear, Turbosmart actuator, 3" turbo back no res. or cat., greddy spec M fmic, nismo 740cc inj, walbro in tank 460, splitfires, 4" intake pipe, Apexi pod, e85, eboost2, power Fc. I love that the new setup has much larger turbo spec with the HTA3076 1.01ar Ts rear, and literally everything is bigger, but far higher quality and result is it's FAR more responsive in paper.
    • This makes a lot of sense! I just had that realisation a few minutes ago and wrote it above haha. This is a good new discovery. "Sanding the side of the hill" perfect way to put it.   😂 😂 
    • This is probably what's happened to me. I'll put filler again on my repairs and use the long block and let you know how I go. Fingers crossed it's my last batch of filler lol. I can see that happening where my block dipped at certain points because it didn't cover all the high spots at the same time if that makes sense. I'm just trying to visualise the fact that with the large sanding block I will be sanding far away from the central dent area and whether that will cause issues or whether that's going to fether out my repairs better.
