Hello, I have an R32 Skyline GTST with an RB25DET. Yesterday I swapped out my stock injectors for new P2M 550cc injectors. I followed a tutorial online step by step, nothing went wrong. Went to start up the car and it cranks but won’t start. Popped off the fuel pressure line and no fuel seems to be going into the rail. I can hear the fuel pump kick on when I turn the key however. Any ideas? I’m not very mechanically apt when it comes to cars in all honesty, so any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Any possibility you put the pressure and return fuel lines the wrong way around? If the pressure line is connected to the fuel pressure regulator instead of the fuel rail you will get no fuel in the rail when the pump runs

Did you prime it after? 

Having all the fuel out of the rail and lines means it's not just going to fire up first flick of the key. Need to get the pump to prime 3 or 4 times before trying to start. 

Failing that, possibly lines mixed up as Duncan said

The lines appear to be in order. Before when I said I popped off the pressure line and no fuel came out- I touched the top line. I popped off the bottom line and fuel did spray out. So I believe fuel is getting to the rail. I primed the pump 10 times before starting and still no luck. I sprayed starter fluid into the throttle body and it started maybe half a second before giving up. I feel like I’m so close!

Do as said above just to rule it out. Then next step, if you're confident you have fuel in rail, is see if your injectors have power and if they're clicking at all.

I hear no clicking whatsoever from the injectors. They’re brand new, I double checked all the connections, fuses are good. What else could be causing them not to click?

Should have a constant 12v supply to the injectors, ecu switches the earth. Not sure how many things could prevent ecu from telling injectors to fire but there's a few

Ended up finding this fuse blown, thought that was my issue. Replaced it, tried to start her, still won’t. Switched back to my old injectors, won’t start. Double checked everything I’ve touched, and then some, and then checked again for good measure. Got an engine code reader and all it reads is ERROR. Local shop is too backed up so they can’t touch it. 

I’m completely out of ideas gents. Anything and everything at this point would be greatly appreciated.

1 - What fuse was that exactly? Missing details here. Might not even be related...

2 - If you're changing injectors, what ecu are you running? 

My train of thought here is for whatever reason you decided to change to 550's and you're still running a stock ecu/tune. If so, 30$ says you're issue is not no fuel, it's too much fuel... and you're engine is flooded. Just pop your sparkplugs out and see if they're wet and check if you have fuel sitting in your cylinders after cranking. This would also explain why it wouldn't start when you went back to the stock 380cc's.

I have a feeling that if the OP's mechanical skillset is at a point where he thinks its ok to install higher flowing injectors while running a stock ECU, while he stated that 'nothing went wrong', I have a feeling that something did in fact go wrong during the install however his mechanical knowledge didn't allow him to realise that something was not done correctly/was damaged/etc. 

If that is the case, it would probably make the most sense to take the car to a workshop for them to troubleshoot.

Not a stock ECU. Its an AEM Infinity 506. The car was tuned on the stock injectors. I installed the new injectors and before starting, had it tuned again to support the new injectors. He did everything correctly (I’m assuming).

Pop your sparkplugs out and confirm you're not getting fuel while cranking please.

Mate you need to put all the info here so we're not going in circles. 

1) Have you removed plugs to see if there's too much fuel as one of the guys suggested?

2) Have you swapped fuel lines to be sure you're not mixed up as was suggested? No offence but you didn't sound remotely confident they're correct. 

3) Have you checked that you have power at the injectors at all? 

4) What was the fuse that was blown? 

5) Have you contacted the tuner for their input considering they just tuned it and possibly missed something? 

 

Diagnostics requires a lot of ruling things out until you narrow down possibilities, difficult to do with half the information available.

Are we going to take bets on some sort of blanking caps left on/in the new injectors?

or fuel hoses backwards :D 

hence fuel pump fuse blowing (or I think it's the fuel pump fuse, OP was not specific on which fuse popped)

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
