Hi peeps, I recently bought my first Skyline with some damage to the drivers corner. Panel work is done (: so i started looking at the engine. I started the car and the idle was rough with it idleing high and low very quickly I noticed that one of the injectors where leaking so I pulled them out got my injector guy to have a look at them and he found two to be faulty and need replaced. I got 2 injectors and serviced them and wacked them back in. Started the car it has fixed the rough idle car still seam's to be a little out on idle but rev meter says 900rpm and it idles high and low???? Has anyone had this issue help would be very much appreciated. Thanks guys




I have gone over my hose's with carby cleaner, Blocked my BOV (put a plate over the gasket) and checked my wastgate (not seized)

I removed the ACC and cleanded the buid up (there was abit of oil or carbon) still has a bad idle (reving up and down)

I tryed to locate the IAC but couldnt find it but with some help from a helpfull message that was sent from a SAU user (thanks again for the info)

I turned my attention to the air regulator I blocked it started the car and it is still has a bad idle

ok guys bit of a mix up by me. Instead of taking off the ACC and cleaning the spring and screw i pulled off the ACC solinode. I just cleaned it and put it back together thanks to DIY search and I then begun to set the idle screw. I disconnected the ACC plug and I found myself closing the screw all the way down to get to 900rpm i open it abit and now im getting 950rpm but car gets to 1200rpm even 1500 sometimes. this happens when i give it abit of throttle car dosnt react when i brake or turn the stearing wheel.

ok guys this is where I am today. I went over the intercooler hoses and clamps, cleaned my AFM, cleaned the BOV, cleaned the ACC (spring and screw), cleaned the IAC valve and cleaned the throttle body. after doing all this started the car and same result (idle floats between) 900 and 1200rpm.

I also remembered that a SUA user mentioned the injector seal on the manifold I found that number 1 injector is leaking from the top part of the injector. I removed it and swiched the seals with number 2 and number one still leaked. My injector guy will receive a very happy call tomorrow. I have tryed to set my idle screw (ACC) but cant get a good idle I think due to the injector leaking.

oh I also pumped the brakes continues and the idle went down pretty fast??? I think the booster has a vac leak causing this idle???

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
