iv just replaced the fuel pump in a r32 gtst after the other one shit itself.

Simple job that iv done before but for some reason this time the car wont start...it does fire but wont idle??

It is getting fuel and everything else is working fine. Iv even changed ignition,checked the pump again and still cant figure out why its not running!

If anybody has any ideas please let me know because iv gone over and over it and now iv hit a wall

Cheers

so u have checked that the emobliser is working and alarm is all good and the power addsisted pumps all good

if thats all good then check that the injectors arent clogered and the distriburor is good and mabye spack plugs are all good maye be the reason it wont idle

if all good then i dont no

so it starts up and then dies again when it idles?

could be a power issue, so battery or the alternator ,

or perhaps you got an exhaust leak somewhere

i got a blow out between my turbo and the manifold and it did stuff like that

hope that helps

    • 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.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • 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
