Hey im new to this site, so bare with me. My 34 has been playin up lately. while im cruising along, the tcs & slip light will light up on my dash by itself, followed by the engine light, then it will start to lose power & stall slowly, so i have to pull over on the side of the road, then i will start the car back up, sometimes it has trouble starting again, but when it starts again i can drive it again. this only happens now & then. not all the time. it really pisses me off tho. my 34 is auto by the way. Is my AFM playing up? please help. need this fixed asap.

Nah. ive replaced them for brand new yellow jackets, bcoz at first that's what i thot, but still the problem occurs. Im guessing its the AFM. Anyone else had this problem, please tell me. need help. just don't see why the TCS & slip light comes on by itself on the dash when it starts to play up. weird....

I've taken it to the auto electricians. they did the scan while they were cruising & when the car was dying they saw that the AFM was at fault. so im guessing its the AFM. Ive got brand new yellow jacket coil packs in it, so it can't be the coil packs. just hard to figure out why the TCS & SLIP light turns on when it starts to play up.

Pat just stated he had 2 out of 6 brand new yellow jacket coilpacks fail on him, maybe he got some ultra dodgey ones - or maybe they are all dodgey? nfi

Ever changed your standard panel filter assembly over to a pod yourself and left the afm plug off? does it feel like that?

swap the afm for a used second hand one and see it it is any better. should be one on here for $50-100 max.

i brought the car with a apexi pod filter already installed.

brought it late last year, just recently playing up.

im borrowing my mates afm this friday, so hopefully its just my afm thats faulty. not something major.

i'll tell you all how it went. im borrowing it for at least 2 days.

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
