yeah Mt Tambo is a nice drive but is heavily monitored theses days and wayyyy to many accidents which does not help :(

 

 

seriously it was sitting at lights when it happen didn't even boost it cause car was still cold.... so from that video you would look for a split ic piping ect?

Sounds very air leaky to me. After looking for air leaks unplug each coil pack. If the idle doesn't change you have found your problem cylinder. Did you say you unplugged the afm and it made no difference? I have had a failed afm and failed wiring to my afm cause issues similar to yours. My money is still on air leak though.

How hard is a slappa RB30 ?

I now have a metal on metal ticking sound :angry:

I'm thinking I have lost 1 or maybe 2 cylinders, comp test next.

While pulling out the coil packs when running made the car want to stall on all, some didn't change much when plugging back in but did make a change..

PowerFC install stops the car hunting but as the car warmed up and idled dropped it wanted to stall causing it to hunt.

Anyone got a engine crane?

Yeah unplugged AFM then started car on stock ECU ran the same harder to start but did run

PowerFC installed to rules out ecu. Am unplugged wouldn't run. AFM installed it runs but missing..

Did the spray carbie cleaner around hoses and intake gasket.. no notable change..

Who can recommend a Mechanic Southside close to beenleigh ? If only ERD was open still.

    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
