btw when you say you have to push it uphill to clutch start it, is that because your house is right at the bottom of a hill? because you can clutch start in reverse too. If you are careful (clutch and brake as soon as it fires) you can even do it in your driveway, it only takes a couple of klm/h to start a car.

ecutalk should show most of your ecu values and voltages on a PC which can help with spotting a dodgy sensor like an AFM or TPS (by voltage) or even CAS (by seeing fluctuating voltages)

Haha i use to reverse roll start my car down the driveway for two months. (not the skyline) Edited by Pattey21

Finishing work late all this week. (Forced Overtime) KARNT$$$

I'll be home by 5pm. Praps I can just come by and Help ya!

Yes Laptop. :thumbsup:

If you have the time Rob :)

Working late? lol I don't finish until about 5:30 so that works out perfectly fine.

Does your 33 have the ignitor on top of the cam cover?

Haha nah nothing in the intercooler pipe.

Drove it to and from work as well for the week.

Tried all different things Zeb such as pumping the gas, light pedal etc.

If you both have the time to come over then I would love the help.

Rob, the ECU talk would be a great help (I have never used one though)

And Zeb your wise mind would be great as well.

If I could find an ignitor then that would be perfect.

Yeah man, no Problem. Txt or PM your addy. I'll be there.

Is your car on the street? Will it be safe? Uphill to get to your carpark?

If flatish, I've seen an RX7 reversed using just the starter motor. NOT IDEAL!

But if your stuck on a train track and the train is coming, it might just get you out of trouble.

Maybe get an ignitor off brennan or surely someone on here in act must have a s1 r33. Hopefully ecu talk is fine with the daughterboard and can diagnose but if not researching correct operating voltages for all the sensors would be handy when the guys come around tomorrow or if your lucky get somone with a s1 to use as a "rough" reference.

then its just a process of elimination. good luck with it buddy

This all sounds familiar........

Im sure this happened to me once.

Just have to remember what it was.

>_<

Trying..... hang on

>_<

Itll come to me....

I think the ignitor wasnt earthed or the wiring up there was fked, coilpack harness earth, shorts etc

Also had the idle circuit do that, the ac valve or something, that thing bolted to the inlet manifold.

Another time i lost a hoseclamp on the pipes and it died as soon as boost pressure popped it off.

Hope it helps, good luck.

might sound silly, just double check the CAS is plugged in and hasnt come loose.

Not sure what you've tried in the last 4 f**ken pages lol, ain't no way I cbf reading this first up on a Monday - but as above, have you checked the CAS at all? It's just as unlikely as any other part you haven't touched recently coincidentally failing, but it fits the symptoms (battery fine, car started fine, ran for a bit then died, now won't start).

I assume you've gone over fuses by now?

It's still possible that you've had a run of bad luck and damaged the wiring for one of the plugs when you unplugged it or when plugging back in. When you've got another person to help you, have them crank the engine over (*try* to start it) while you fiddle with the plugs/wires - see if anything happens while you're wriggling them around.

I agree with Richard, It sounds like either spark or fuel. Pull a fuel line off and let it prime as fuel should spill out of the line. If it does that means you are getting fuel. If you are getting fuel and you have spark do a compression test. Fuel+spark an engine should start even if it runs like shit. No compression=no start.

oh also how many times have you tried to start it? You are risking flooding the engine. If you have tried to start it quite a few times get a battery charger/new battery as that will kill the battery very quickly.

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
