recently converted my patrol to efi and had nothing but issues

its stumbling when revving off idle and poping through the intake I have replaced

fuel pump walbro 255lph in tank

spark plugs and gapped to 1.1

dizzy cap

afm

tps

aac valve

fpr

coolant temp sensor

intake manifold gaskets

put a kit through the injectors and replaced all the seals

timing is set to 15c btdc +2

every now and then it comes good

if I block my return line it revs normal

sometimes it decides to run rich for no reason

any ideas guys

Clean up or replace all the sensor plugs as they corrode and get bad connectivity.

My R31 has been doing this on and off for a while and I've replaced alot of the same things you have but I'm going to be replacing the CAS plug and Coolant temp sensor plug soon.

Get on R31 Skyline Club and you will find this is a VERY common problem with RB30's

Could well be AFM. I'm looking into purchasing a newy or a Refurb as all of the three I have are 20+ years old and unknown condish.

Best I've found so far is a New aftermarket for $175+ post.

PM me if you want one. :thumbsup:

Could be dodge Earths or Loom related. The intake Backfire is supposedly a Lean issue, so any shortage of fuel or incorrect airflow signal could be to blame.

Airleaks, Fuel line Blockage / filter, injectors, so many things.

Have you read the ECU leds for Fault codes?

The "Air Valve Thing" is the Air Regulator. That should really only do anything on Coldstart, as in, when you start it and let it idle, if the idle drops down after 30secs or so, it's working.

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
