hey guys,

My car has been stuffing up as of late. When its cold it seems to crank over easily, but as soon as it warms up, on idle it just stalls and turns off and i cant crank it back over.

Im guessing its the earthing problem that i have been reading about but i just wanted to make sure.

Today i also put in a set of splitfire coil packs with the same result.

Thanks guys,

Jacob

Hey man, I'm having the same problem with my r32 but when i did a ecu check it told me(after i let the engine warm up) that something was wrong with the knock sensor. I'm not really sure what the knock sensor does but i'm gonna have a look see and post my result. Let me know if you come up with anything.

Hey Juvv my car starts normally again. After checking all the electrical stuff like running an ecu check and other stuff it turned up nothing. So i decided to lift the head of the car and guess what? We found leaking valves man. So this is what you do run a compression test on each cylinder. The compression on each should be between 110- 140psi. Let me know whats up. If the compression is below 100psi,get your mechanic and you buy some new valves or grind the ones you have is they didn't melt or aren't burnt badly.

Well after pulling out my valves we saw that they weren't seated properly so we grinded the ones that i already had. And now i'm starting one click even when its hot. Exactlly what is the "CAS?" Check the compression on the engine and lets see what its saying. Remember if its less than 100psi your valves are the problem. The compression is leaking pass the valves due to the head warping.

    • No no, sorry I think I made you misunderstand. I have this Tee as well as the lines that go from there. What I am missing is the banjo bolt that connects this line (OEM turbo oil supply line) To this hole, this line is mounted on the turbo and reaches around it so you have easy access the oil and water supply being rerouted to this dual banjo port in the front. like this
    • Nothing at the moment as previously there was a crappy braided line going from engine block directly to the turbo. I have bought a used OEM hardline for the turbo oil supply, which goes from the engine block to the marked hole. I don't have any of the OEM banjo bolts for oil except the one at the block.
    • This is the tee No specs on the page I grabbed it from, out of stock there anyway. But it kinda looks like a 1mm pitch. Would not think it's going to be 0.75mm pitch.
    • OK, I'm with you now. The outlet of the tee that is banjo'd into the block. Dunno what it is, will have a scratch around. The M11 question is.....messy. The minor diameter of an M11x1.0 male thread is 9.917mm. This is smaller than the minor diameter of a 7/16"-24 UNS (which is 10.08mm). The M11 major is 11mm. That's smaller than the major on a 7/16"-24 UNS (which is 0.4375" or 11.1mm) so an M11x1 bolt should pass on the major side. The pitch of a -24 thread is 1.058mm, which is really close to the M11x1, so it should go in at least several turns. I would expect M11x1 to be loose in a 7/16"-24 UNS, at least until enough thread are engaged to make it stop screwing in, if that can happen. Probably wouldn't happen on such a short bolt as you're looking at on the oil tee. Keep in mind that 7/16"-24 is NOT a standard/typical 7/16" thread. Standard is 20. That's the UNF or fine thread. -24 is really fine. I imagine that Garrett chose -24 for the turbo housing oil inlet to get the number of threads engaged up. I would not expect Nissan to have an imperial (UNF, etc) thread on that tee. I would expect it to be metric (if it is a bolt thread) or BSP (actually the Japanese equivalent of BSP) if it is a pipe thread. Given that it's a banjo, it's going to be a bolt thread. If it looks like an 11mm will go in there, then 11mm seems likely. It is very possible that some clown has stuffed that thread by trying to jam some imperial "near equivalent" into it, perhaps with those hoses of yours. Got verniers? Measure up the threads on the hoses.
