hi again mates. is there a test to check if a crank angle sensor should work without it on the car? its a rb20 one. Im trying to diagnose a problem with my car that wouldnt restart 2 seconds after it stalled. I have a spare I got with the car but its unknown condition and doesn't do anything when plugged into the loom on car

Nothing is wrong with my CAS, but after I stalled my car it wouldn't start either. Had to crank and wait a while.

I'm stuck for ideas on something I can test that gets power sent to it by the ecu so I can confirm ecu isn't dead. My thinning is that the 12 volt or whatever it is power at the injectors will still be there even if there was no ecu in the car and that the power I'm seeing at injectors isn't fed from the ecu and that only the switching is. Is that correct of is the power I'm reading at the injectors isn't from the ecu? If it is from ecu then I probably say its cas problem and I be a lot happier not worrying I have a dead 1000$ ecu and $600 tune

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
