dude after doing an engine swap after having a big end go there are a f load of hoses you wont even realise are vaccume lines, two of which are hard up against the fire wall and there is no way in hell you can do them without pulling the motor out

i wouldnt mind hearing the issue your having cause it sounded like at first the problem mine had which was the alternator had gone so the car would get absolutly no power and ran rough as hell. but if its still starting then i guess that's not the issue other wise your battery would be dead by now

oh yeah nothing to be proud of but i just got made redundant to im not too busy atm till i get replacement work so i can come have a look too if your keen on any help ill bring my bastard child too (being my gtr)

Starts after a few engine turns but then sounds like it's gonna stall. There is also quite a loud tappetty sounding ticking noise that I don't remember coming out of the engine bay.. I have the manual including the vacuum setup and as you say, there are two I can't even really see.

What do you all recommend?

I'm going to check the vac lines I can get to and with any luck i'll find an easily accessible leak that'll solve my immediate problem so I can get it to a 100k service. :)

Nak, I'm totally free this arvo if your close by and it's not too much trouble. It'd be good to get another persons take on it before I go back to work.

My poor car hasn't moved in a few weeks now. :(

Had the same problem. Except mine was slightly worse. Haha had a head gasket go. Instead of getting a new top end with a shit bottom end and a load of kms still I jus thought ill buy a new motor all together.

Don't say that Ninja.. :P

Maybe next step is to try someones afms that are known to work. Any hands up? Hehe.

I really hope it's not gasket.

I'll check what time I have this week coming and hopefully I can book one of you guys in for an inspection. :)

Cheers guys, much appreciation for your time.

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
