Hi,

i am having some trouble with my car not starting so i thought i would see if any one on here could help me. i have been through hundreds of threds relating to the same problem im having but am having no luck.

i am using an r33 adaptronic ECU in my car.

so my car has been tuned and was runnning great. i then decided to upgrade my exhasut manifold, so i purchased a 6boost manifold. took the car to my local mechanic and he installed the manifold, he had to spin the exhaust housing on the turbo and intake housing so the turbo would fit in its new position.

now heres the problem

he rings me and says it wont start. so i go down there and the car is turning over but wont start, it back fires, pops and farts and tries to start but it wont fire.

so he checked the following

1. all plugs have spark (all spark plugs were wet when removed)

2. there is plenty of fuel

3. fuel pump works and primes

4. check all cooler pipes for leaks and blockages

Thankyou very much for your help

Is there the smell of fuel in the car, because I suspect that if the car has been started several times and not driven, the plugs are fouled?

I'd get new plugs and ensure they're gapped to 0.8mm

Can you ask your tuner if the Adaptronic ECU has been set in such a way that it's possible for fuel to foul the plugs if the car is left idling?

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
