I cleaned the AAC and AYC, replaced coil packs, fuel pump, fuel filter, all the lines.

My thoughts were that it was fuel related (hence a stab of the throttle to pick the fuel pressure up) but it could just as well be not enough air, so no, i'm out of ideas too man :D.

Yeah that's what I thought initially too. But I dropped my fuel line off whilst it was cold and there is still furl there so it's not draining to tank. An performance isn't hampered so no starvation. I replaced my ayc, cleaned the aac, changed to a oem bov, cleaned the afm, adjusted the idle, calibrated the tps, checked the coolant sensor, checked for boost leaks, replaced the fuel filter and lines.

It's got me stuffed. I'm just going to start replacing things now. First up is aac and coolant probe.

have the cold start idle issue too. Car pretty much stalls as soon as it fires up if i dont blip the throttle...

When i had aftermarket injectors, z32 afm (with plug) and tune car would fire and not struggle...

So its either the injectors, afm or tune in my opinion...

I've had my rb20 stock injectors cleaned before fitting in and still have cold start issues. So that could mean afm or tune...

  • 6 months later...

Any ideas yet? Replaced my injector o-rings as one was leaking, Removed and resealed all joiners on the intake. Cleaned the aac again. Adjusted the throttle. Still have the issue. Funny thing is from time to time it starts beautiful cold.

Nissan Fast AAC valve.

I have pulled apart the iacv-aac valve (23781M in picture) and cleaned that.

However ive never heard of the air regulator? (22660M)

Perhaps the problem lies with the air regulator? Have you cleaned/replaced that before?

What they do is in the name. AAC Auxilary Air Controller and IAC Idle Air Controller. And i have replaced the IAC and cleaned the AAC. But i don't believe its either as once started it idles perfectly and does not faulter when load is placed on and off the engine (A/C). Im thinking electrical as i have noticed the first few cylinders firing sound almost like its mis-firing. Then once it gets up to speed ( >300rpm) it settles itself down. Ive also noticed when its cold there is a surge as soon as boost is coming on. Hence why im thinking either coil packs or maybe o2 sensor.

No not yet, but i have replaced it with a walbro 260lh/hr pump. But i don't believe the issue to be fuel, as i can prime the system a few times and make sure the system has full pressure then start it with the same issue.

Thought i would keep this going as a record.

So far i have

Replaced the IAC

Cleaned the AAC

Checked for boost leaks and replaced a few hose clamps

Resealed the injectors

Replaced the fuel filter

Replaced the fuel lines

Replaced the fuel pump

Replaced the vacuum hose

Adjusted the tps to 0.4 at idle and 3.97 at WOT

Thought about setting it on fire

Bought some petrol

Removed the turbo timer

Removed the immobilizer

Replaced the o2 sensor with a new ford el type

Replaced the spark plugs with BCPR6E -11 gapped to 0.8mm

And still nothing. I played with the tps again yesterday and moved it a heap out of wack. I found that it would start beautifully but between 2-3k rpm it would splutter and stall. So i would assume that the idle was switching around there. With that i would say it is a TPS issue?

In Townsville. And no i haven't tried another ecu yet. Thats the strange thing even with the throttle held open it still struggles to fire for the first few revolutions, then once it fires a few cylinders it picks up. Otherwise with the throttle at idle it takes about 5-10 revolutions of missing before it picks up to normal idle otherwise it stalls then will fire and run to idle straight away on next turn of the key.

Ok so took it for a drive today for an hr or so. Hesitation between 2-3k is gone since i readjusted the tps back to how it was (0.4v at idle, 3.97v at WOT) But now the idle is fluctuating and i can't adjust the aac. So i think ill just buy a new TPS and AAC and see what happens

Try crimping the fuel return line after the fuel pressure reg when starting to raise te fuel pressure. the reg may be getting soft.

With the tps if its not set correctly it may not be in the idle maps. Try lowering it to .35 or so

Well I don't have anything with me ATM to check the tps again as I'm in Mackay for inductions. But it's definitely set to 0.4v to 4v. I've also noticed another sympto that's only just started, when i drive it cold , she sometimes misses until the first sign of boost or i give it more then 20% or so throttle then it's ok but it doesn't like driving at partial throttle occasionally. I've only noticed this since I replaced the o2 sensor but at the same time i played with the tps so im hoping fpr, maybe injectors running less pulse width cause of altered fuel maps = more fuel fighting fpr? Which bring the issue on just before boost? I dunno clutching at straws here. But it drove for 400km last night no worries

    • 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.
