Hi

Ive recently had a starting issue. tried changing the plugs and testing for spark. Tested the CAS by spinning it. Checked for fuel after the rail. got the car started by spraying start aid to the intake. It started straight away. but when throttle is applied it seem to die or drop revs till it dies.

ive recently started using united e85 so im thinking maybe dirty injectors. But when the car started it ran for 10mins without a problem. but dies when revs applied. The first time this issue occured the car died in the middle of the road, lost all power but the revs were still present. As soon i applied more throttle it died. Thereafter never managed to start it till now.

any help is appreciated as im trying to to waste money on something that isnt broke.

Does the FP Speed light up green when you blip the throttle?

Can you post up the fuel and IGN tables as well?

have you done the TPS and MAP calibrations (looks like you have)

Are the injectors set right?

Is the intake air temp sensor right when it says 11 degrees? Seems awful cold for this time of the year but might just be that cold there lol

mine seems to be a lil like that at the monent, i will run a bottle of injector cleaner through mine, you should do the same cos its cheap and even if it doesnt help at least your injectors will be clean lol

Get the injectors flow tested, I have seen so many sets lately blocked with black gunk... You will be chasing your tail until you know they are all flowing fine.

Do you have a fuel pressure gauge also?

I always run a bottle of injector cleaner every month when I change oil. I probably use a bottle to half a tank which is more concentrated.
I have a fuel pressure gauge too bumped up the pressure to 50psi. Didn't really help.
I really hope it's the injectors because they take a fair bit of effort to remove.

But yes ill get them flow tested and cleaned and possibly source o new filter baskets for them. Were they ASNU1100CC by anychance?

ive attached the fuel and ignition tables

10 degrees and 4 degrees? Is it really that cold there? lol

Also, and this might just be me, but I think a bottle of injector cleaner a month is a bit excessive. I never used it with my NISMO 555's and never had any issues for 2 or 3 years

Good to hear.

I have asked my injector specialist for some heated e85 specific injectors for this very reason, should fix all our cold start issues... If they can get us some, or get them designed and built.

I can see the fuel gauge dropping on cold start as I drive up the street. If these injectors fall through I may have to swap back to pootrol this winter.

yeah i thought im going crazy but the gauge moves a lot quicker just after starting it. Not sure how other peoples setups are working on E85 but here in Canberra on the very first start you need to try atleast twice for it to start. Thereafter it starts on first go , if that makes sense. I have ASNU1100CC

      Yeah, I don't believe the M35 uses a deadhead system.

      Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.

      Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.

      The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
