Get feeler gauge. No need for "gapping tool".

A light tap to close the gap on something firm is perfect.

Besides this is a na skyline, you shouldn't be having spark blow out.

Unless your igniter has carked it

Did you use genuine cool packs and harness?

  • Like 1

Ill get whichever one is cheaper since i already paid too much on this shit already.

Yes im using stock rb20 coilpack and loom.

My friend also told me it could be my ignitor. But dont u think its strange it just started doing this as soon as i serviced the car?

Also i dropped a couple of the spark plugs maybe about 20cm when i was trying to put it in the block, maybe a couple of them lost there stock measurment?

Also maybe the grounding on some of the plugs are dirty, ill degrease them

And about the afm, ill clean it out tomorrow but what do i use? When i had issues with air flow meter before it limited the revs to like 2300, this issue is way different it randomly putters every few seconds on idle and when i rev the car out the revs dont go up smoothly, it goes up a bit cuts off goes up a bit more

spark plugs don't like being dropped. A cracked ceramic insulator can cause ignition issues. A set of copper plugs is cheap as sh*t, would be putting in a set of new plugs if you hadn't already, can always just keep them aside for later use if it doesn't fix your issue.

I just use brake cleaner on afm, give it a fairly quick spray in the direction of airflow.

Wait what. R34's don't use igniters. How are you using an RB20 loom and coilpacks?

Guys the problem kinda just went away. After my petrol was very low this morning, i filled up and realised it stopped doing it. It doesnt cut off when revinvg it out and doesnt putter at idle . Could it be bad fuel i got at caltex?

Sorry it wasnt caltex, it was BP on kissing point road. I filled up when the tanker was putting fuel in the resevoir. I heard when it does it all the shit stuff from the bottom of the tank comes up and mixes with the fuel. I didnt believe it but it must be true. f**k BP then, i want compo for the time and money wasted

Good luck.

I remember a dude built an engine (RB30DE, he is builder so was doing it for fun), filled up at a dodgy fuel station, engine seized on the driveway out of the place. Didn't get a cent.

Water in fuel or something.

I never fill up at Caltex or BP, always with Mobil (Now 7 Eleven). Helps when they're closest to my house.

Change your fuel filter, maybe get injectors clean if they're old.

I started to get the engine problems when the fuel ran low though, like the fuel light was on. So could the rubbish stuff at the bottom finally get sucked into the fuel system and then it started causing ignition misfiring problems? Ill change the fuel fuelter and use injector cleaner... Do u think i need to drain and clean the fuel tank and system as well?

Does my issue sound like it was because of the ffuel? Does bad fuel cause these type of misfiring and puttering problems?

    • Heres another fitment photo. redrilled the pattern to 5x112, and threw my audi´s rims on. had to touch the upper control arms with grinder, because the "sharp corner" was sticking about 2-3mm on the tire path. i have the "fender lip" mostly cut off, otherwise these (too) would contact with it. 20x9.5 ET25 rear    265/30 20x8.5 ET20 front    255/30 they are temporary, and look too big for the chassis. searching for 19s to it.
    • From experience, it will come back to bite you haha.
    • Background: my BMW 225i hatchback (rebodied MINI/X1) came with 3x RE003 and 1x Goodyear Asymmetric something. The RE003 roared and slid around, the Goodyear side was quiet and grippy. Definitely my car was thrashed before it got sent to dealers. My brother also got RE003 all round on his old VA WRX STI, I wasn't impressed with them, car was loud so can't comment on noise. Anyway, Hankook stopped making/updating V12 Evo2. So bought S1 Evo3 runflats. Great daily duties tyre and not that harsh ride. Tyre reviews site/youtube rated them as best stopping in the rain and I believe them. Next set, Goodyear Asymmetric 5 non-RFT. It beat PS4 in tests and is like $100 cheaper, so put them on. Great tyre, more grip then S1 Evo3 but a tad noisier as expected, still rocking them. Next set I am looking to go runflats, probably the new Hankook Evo. Although the new Pirelli PZ5 did well in tyrereviews test. Or go Goodyear Asymmetric 6 which was top tyre last year. The V12 Evo2 on my gen5 Liberty GT wagon did great in cold condition (drove to snowy mountains for a day so my husky can feel his ancestor's roots). Super impressive performance for $120 each lol. Never skimp on tyres, brakes, suspension. There's old pics of my R31's crappy random brake pads bending in the caliper at Oran Park track day somewhere around here. Anyway, my 2 cents.
    • I said "Matlab clone". I could throw one onto one of my linux VMs. Probably only take 10 or 20 hours to sort out the dependencies, relearn how to use it, etc etc.
