hi guys,

me and my mate installed a lt10s into my rb20 over the weekend, started it up, and with the base tune it seems like its idling weird. kind of pops/knocks. . .

tps is showing 0% load.

also im not 100% sure that the knock sensor is hooked up correctly either. . . can anyone post up the wiring diagram for the tps sensor/switch?

i have read that on first start you have to adjust the tps? and lock in the timing??? any suggestions on how to go about??

Any help is appreciated! cheers

Use hand controller to lock timing - Do not rev the motor!

Use timing light to set engine to correct base timing by adjusting the CAS.

When timing is set correctly, unlock timing with the hand controller.

You have the Microtech manual right?

Also the Microtech doesn't use the knock sensors.

ok, so ive sorted out the tps. microtech is showing 0% then 99% with throttle.

im still not 100% about the CAS wiring. . .

Also, since ive relocated my battery to the boot. when i switch on my isolator switch, sometimes it seems like the coils spark and it even pops! any ideas on what i should check??

Cheers!

check yellow pages and find an auto elec in your area

but it really is, for the time it takes and people trying to diagnose it over the net without realtime testing and by the sounds of it there is some major issues with how ever it has been wired up.

all the diagrams needed are on the microtech website, we get guys ringing 10000 times a week with similar issues and it is always wiring related, so unfortunately we just refer them straight to a dealer of whichever product it is. I dont take on half wired jobs as it often takes longer to fix than a new install...

jump on the microtech website and check you cas wiring to their diagrams

hey trent, its got a base map on it, ive gone through the tps set-up and adjusted the timing to 10btdc, but its still running really rough. is that common?

whats the idle af?

A microleb is a downgrade from the stock ECU, personally I'd sell it. They don't have closed loop O2 feedback so you are going to get rubbish economy unless someone spends hours and hours on the lower load cells when tuning it.

its a dedicated drift car, so i dont care for economy lol

pulled the plugs out trent and there soaked in fuel....thats base mapping for ya.... gonna chuck in the 750's i got and bring it in on the 9th

yeah its showing 14.7 on the h/c. tried trimming it down to 20% but its still rich. . . plugs are soaked in fuel. . .

ignore that, its about 1000000000000000000000 light years off being accurate. use a real lambda sensor or lean it off in steps until it stalls then about 2 page up steps will get it idling if the wiring etc is all correct

Agreed. Just keep trimming it down. Is the vacuum/ boost line connected?

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • 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.
