Got it Anfanee. It has the top tab missing by the looks of it :(

I'll leave it within reach in the garage. It maybe better than the one you have

Thanks Richard will have a look at our next chat :yes:

Make up your mind

I do a lot of ks per week and also like knowing when empty is empty and that my fuel gauge and light are accurate. When I get a new car I flush the entire fuel system twice with new filters. I'll drive around normally until I get low. I'll then got to my spot where road is dead flat and do laps till I get a sign that its near empty.

I then pull over fill up with the jerry can and reference the gauge point and always stay above it as a safeguard point. I change the fuel filter too again.

Its not necessary but that's what I do.

Pat I just put in a new filter after nearly 2 years and put through injector cleaner as well.

Should I now be changing the filter again and possibly run another flush through it?

Car feel a lot smother now after the injector cleaner.

Yeah should use a new filter for flushing, and a new one after.

Okay sweet I might go pick up another filter.

Wish I had something to cut the old one open to see how dirty it is

Have a hacksaw if you wanna swing by.

I cut my orginal one open from the 33. It was dirty but alot better than I thought.

I find that temperature affects the gauge reading too so it's not always accurate.

I'll maybe swing by this weekend if I don't head to Sydney

going to sydney to pick up car?

Family things and hopefully the car as well.

Still haven't heard back from Iron Chef about it though.

Emailed last week and they said they will look into it for me, Emailed again yesterday and haven't heard anything.

Just sent them a message on facebook to try find out.

Ordered CV boot, caster rod bushes and went with adjustable control arm bushes....

Still thinking about those braided lines

Got quoted $65 for a steering rack boot.....genuine Nissan items but still a tad $100 more for some cheap universal ones.

I'll see what super cheap has to offer.

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
