Ok my engine warning light has come on again , the code is 0171 (system too lean) iv had this code come up before so I check it all out and turned one of my hoses come off the air intake, assuming that's what it was I fixed it cleared the code but now it's back, anyone with any help ideas to what it could be would be much appreciated, also I have rechecked all hoses and clamps all seem to be fine so now I'm lost

Did they change the fuel filter?

(it is a section of the pump assembly in the fuel tank)

If it hasn't been done, it may still be on it's original production line filter and might be quite clogged.

Just a thought.

Hey guys, didn't want to start a new thread. Mine has the same code coming up. Vac lines replaced and cable tied. Car seems to run fine but don't want to go and blow it...

However I want to change the fuel pump anyway, is there a write up on this?? Can't seem to find one for the life of me. Would be happy to take pics and do a write up if that is the case.

So does anyone have a part number for the external filter? What's the best drop in pump to use and so on... Your wisdom is greatly appreciated as always.

This is the best one, and closely resembles our car.

Contact Scotty for a fuel pump.

    • This sounds like someone who would have owned an R33 in their past... It's okay, I'm 100% picking up what you're putting down Mark.
    • Just back on what was raised about jacking off the the tow/tie down point on the front of cars. I've used it plenty. I've also watched it on a car where you could see it move the front end of the car. It was like the front end/whole car being tweaked and twisted a bit. I will say, I struggle to find good jacking points on MOST cars. The ones that have good points, I then normally struggle to find a jack tall enough to make the car change height!   One of my go to points for either the jack, or the axel stands though, is either a suspension pickup point, OR a subframe to chassis major bolting point. I actually think its the subframe on my R33 that has a bit of a bend in it, from being jacked in the middle too. However, it could have been one of my many other cars I've had over the years! Or it could also be the from me jacking it up, and the fact the top of the front radiator support isn't there, so it can allow the front of the car to move and bend etc.
    • My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.
    • Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway  
    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
