I've moved 12+ times. All I can say is let them unpack the white goods. Anything broken when you open a box = not their fault. Not sure how companies work as the Defence always booked ours, however, we always bought them drinks and offered to buy them lunch - This seemed to always put them in good spirits and they normally only have cooler bags so if it's stinking hot - chances are their drinks are warm.

Fellaz anyone know how to troubleshoot a crank with no start issue. Checked injectors using CAS method and they're worrking. Pulled out the coils and tested for spark and there's none. All fuses on the driver side door related to ignition are connected. I'm thinking maybe the harness is kaput or something inbetween.

Any ideas please

no not really :(

anything prior occur to not starting?

has it been difficult to start ?

Is it cranking over and not starting or is it DEAD! ?

have you checked the fuses/relays in the engine bay

is the plug connected to the CAS properly

hows the -/+ cables to the battery. Battery itself ?

If it cranks and doesn't start - What are the plugs like?

Is fuel flowing through?

You could try some contact cleaner on the plug where the coil pack harness plugs in to the main loom. Could have some stuff in it maybe or could just be stuffed.

I think it is quite common for them to go due to heat.

The CAS could be kaput as well.

i did have problems starting but they fixed it
its cranking over but not starting the sound of the cranking of so close to starting

i checked all fuses today pulled them all out
I took out the CAS in attempt to see if the injectors were working it was fully plugged in

Also changed the plugs the ones i took out were still in good condition no signs of blow out etc.
I took out the supply line and primed it and a lot of fuel came out.

anymore ideas, its kinda really weird for a car that was running fine.

edit: im thinking its the CAS too just have to sure before buying a new one. Any ways of testing them?

Would it have anything to do with clouds of oil smoke billowing out your exhaust?

And, yes it was oil for sure, i could taste it, more than that i was choking on the sht, if you were in my car youd agree its oil. :yes:

It's not oil because it doesn't do that when I'm on 98. Just unburnt fuel.Only does it when decelerating from WOT. If I ease up normally it doesn't do it. Will check compression just incase something is wrong with the rings.

Bed and 10pm and get up at 2am? Do you work 16 hours or something?!

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
