Hi Guys,

For the last few days the car was running very rough with the exhaust gas light flickering, the car was almost misfiring. Now it wont start up at all. I am not sure how to put the car into diagnostic mode, if anyone would be so kind and advise how to do this?

Secondly, I cannot see the red led light up in the ecu, could the ecu be dead?

Many thanks.

Google how to put into diagnostic mode. Or get a mate with a consult plug.

Theres a very good chance ur spark plugs are really fouled which will cause no start.

Check and replace the spark plugs then u can diagnose. It may just be a popped intercooler pipe, bad afm etc

Check your basic's, air/fuel/spark. Be good to check your plugs first as stated above. Make sure they arent fouled. If they are looking pretty good, id start looking into the fuel side of things. Maybe check fuel pressure and your cam sensor.

Hope that helps!

Plugs are fine- is there fuel on them after cranking or are they dry? Could be no fuel ie possible fuel pump failure etc.

Check there is sufficient flow and oressure in the fuel line. Make sure filter isnt blocked.

Check ALL fuses while ur at it

With ignition on does your engine light illuminate?, If not then sounds like your ECU has no power.

If all good remove CAS and spin it with your hands, re-check spark and put your hand over the injectors and see if you can feel them pulsing(clicking).

      We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.

      Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
