Alright guys I have a major eff up problem here

This morning I turned the ignition on .. after 3-4 seconds the car didn't start but did a boom from the exhaust and didn't start after that after several tries.

I don't really know what has happened. Car had very less fuel , just over E ( may be 3-4 litres) .

Car has Walbro fuel pump ( thats what previous owner said)

What I;ve done so far

- Filled more petrol ( another 5 Litres using a jerry can)

- Changed the fuel filter

- Tried jump start

Sevral tries but no luck. Car behaves so rude!

After a long self car starts for a fraction of second and dies.

- Cleaned AFM ( haven't put it yet)

Do I have to bleed ? my mate said it could be air. becuase I had less fuel and the car has air in the fuel line or something ?

any idea ?

What my car has?

- Front Mount intercooler

- Blow off valve

- Pod filter intake

- Spitfire coilpacks

- NGK spark plugs

- Cusco Catch Can

- Custom made throttle body

- Boost controller (manual)

- 3" kakimoto Exhaust (jasma)

- Tuned Ecu

14psi boost and car's having a 330hp on wheels (tuned in sydney)

any help guys ?

thanks in advance

I don't really know

I think it was due to injectors fueling more , needs to be tuned is it?

well it was changed in Aug 2011 by previous owner.

rust because there was water on the block ( the guy didnt use this car for a long time and then finally sold it)

does anyone know how to fix the injectors ? its running rich atm

If the ECU was tuned for the atmo BOV, then it might make things worse putting the stock one back on (re-circulating type).

What kind of "tuned" ECU? The cold start might need tweaking, especially if it was tuned in the warmer seasons or you live in a area which is cooler than where the owner lived.

Thanks man

I am not sure what did he do to it.

It was okay in summer and since the winter started its having hard time starting in the morning.

ECU I checked its a nissan standard one I think its re-mapped. I live in Melbourne and car came from Sydney ( my mate bought it )

Also fuel economy on this one is sh*T

whole tank would do about 280-300 max .

:wacko:

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
