Quick info on the back ground

Have just installed greddy style plenum onto r33, has hiflowed injectors, splitfire coils etc

Took it too a mech to get it running a touch smoother and maybe fix the misfire. The car is idling better etc but the misfire is still there.

He has replaced the plugs and all 6 ARE firing

All injectors are squirting but number 6 he was suspect of.

He has checked all vac lines, cooler pipes etc..

The car is acting like it is a vac leak and before the manifold the car was tuned and running fine at 260rwkw.

Now is is possible that the manifold has not quite sealed right back at the last cylinder

OR

the injector o-ring where the injector presses against in the rail.

The mech/tuner is good at most things..but nistune is something he does not do.

Any other ideas...

I'm dying to be back on the road...please help

Thanks guys

Yeah plugs have been checked...the car is running a rich as I need the afm settings changed again.

It's a constant miss on the 6th cylinder only and everything points to a vac leak

It struggles to drive around town but feed it some revs and it drives alot better.

Had the plenum pressure tested also

Now today I started the car...white smoke which is generally oil, as last night was its first drive, I'm assuming built up oil in the intercooler from the rocker vent has found its way back to the plenum?

So I though stuff it, pulled out cyl6 injector...o-ring has had it-I would say this is flooding and not igniting as its to wet, causing misfire and rich conditions.

Checked another injector. This one was not as bad but is not at all good.

So I pulled the pulled the plugs, cyl 4 and 6...both wet with fuel but have fired since being replaced yesterday...have splitfire coil packs and theyre fine.

So I'm selling some parts on here I don't need, wondering whether I buy new o-rings OR when the stuff sells buy new JECS 650cc injectors rather than my hi flowed factory items?

Ahhhhh joys

Also no water in oil and vice versa-compression is fine

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
