Hello,

I have some issues with my R33 lately.

All the symptoms:

- Engine knockings under acceleration on higher rpm

- High exhaust temperatures EGT reached over 980 lately

- White smoke coming from exhaust pipe when i start the motor on cold and dying on idle when i release gas pedal. Actually cant reach over 3000rpm on cold and it sounds weird like working on 4-5 cylinders not 6. 

- The car died on me 7 days ago also first time and could not start it. so i changed all the spark plugs for new ones and the car was starting like new for 3 days. After another 3 days of driving on new spark plugs the same shit happend. Cant start the motor again from yesterday.

- Checked today the spark plugs fire with all coils and put different battery. So from ignition it looks ok. 

Is my new set of spark plugs cooked again from high EGT or motor is dying, piston rods bad compression? I havent checked that yet.

Any suggestions?

      Just yesterday the car started to shake a bit when idle. So tomorrow ima test the some wires and packs with the multimeter and see what it is. Hopefully is a pack because thats the easiest thing to buy same day here where I live in the USA.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      I'm not a big fan of the Cometic gaskets either, as above the head and deck need to be like a mirror (can't remember the RA) so Kamieri sounds like a good idea.  FWIW a mate of mine hordes old motor stuff and has some blank unground Nizmo cams for one of these in his supply if random shit if you're interested.
