Besides the blatently obvious of it being a pain in the ass, the fact that ppl look at Skylines and it stalls just about anywhere makes it a bitch to go anywhere without having every1 laugh at ya!!! Fun and games hey??

this problem was happening with my soarer, and I realised that it was my amp power wire had got melted over the back seat, and was shorting out.

I guess try to look at all obvious things - check wiring, batt terminals etc

Yeah had thought of that but when it turns off the electrics stay on so it wouldn't be a short...

Had about 1001 ideas of wat it could be but so far nothing, revs used 2 be unstable 2, changing between 300 - 2100 all the time, so i thought the turning off could have been related but found that the idle problem was just an average attempt to re-connect the RPM wire!!!

Thanks for your suggestion anyway.

Sorry guys - probably 2 vague, but was pretty sceptical from the start...

Alright this is what we're talking about:-

It has turned off while cruising or idiling - these 2 are the most common.

But it also has occasionally turned off on takeoff, or breaking hard!

The only time it NEVER turns off is when i'm really giving it to it.

It also seems to flat spot (if that's what you'd call it) i'll be driving along and it just stops responding for maybe 1 or 2 seconds, no matter how far the accelerator is down it does nothing, then it will kick back and keep going - it almost seems like it is trying to turn off... If it does this a couple of times, all i have to do is put it in Neutral while driving along and the revs drop to 0 and she turns off.

Electrics stay on though so i've ruled out a short, it also starts up straight away 2.

Another thing that it does is if I'm driving on a warmish - hot day, the flat spotting will occur and if i can manage to keep it on, the next time i go to drive it (no matter how long it is after it) it plays up, almost like its got a memory (thats where i was thinking the ECU)

It's very common during the warmer weather, almost unheard of during the colder - and its pretty much got me fu$&@d...

That's about it...

Hope this helps, if u need anymore info let me know...

Thanks all!!

it sounds like something i read on the forum about the fuel pump earth or sumthing shorting out.. finding the earth and reconnect it in a better location.. worth a shot. also check that your spark plugs are screwd in nice and tight.. disconnect and connect your battery after you try it.. hope this helps.

I'm no expert, but have you checked for leaks along the intake system? If unmetered air is getting into the system after the AFM, then that could make it run shit. A celica I owned had a crack in the intake plumbing and the bastard would not idle, almost dying all the time and bunny-hopped on take off.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
