Evening... niz, my car hardly starts after being turned off for only 10-15 minutes. ie: I'll jump out to go to the shops, park, shop and then get back in car and I have to force feed it a lot of throttle to get it to kick over or I get a huge backfire (and scare little old women like I did last week) hopefully steve as a fix for my wolf3d soon :cheers:

yeah dad reckons its because of the over fuelling problem ..... once you chuck some throttle into it it was fine but it didnt sound healthy for a while :cheers: sounded a bit like the exact same problem as the ZX

What is it with my cars n fuel problems??

Dad tried to talk me into the Wolf .... but i cant afford it .... we've gone from "Why the hell do you need that bit? your just wasting your money" too ....... "a twin turbo set up with a couple of big arse HKS turbos would be nice" :confused:

ur dad?..HKS?   wow, what happened to HSV?

hm yea safc would be good but wolf would be best

Um he's turning to the dark side cos the HSV is boring ..... he's talking a lot about GTR's lately. He ws going to come down to dyno day today but it was too hot.

He's getting excited by all the bits n pieces you can buy for jap cars. Yeah he said it would be better just to spend the mone yon something that can do it all than constantly buying lotsa little things to do the job. Anyway cant afford it.

nah he's persistant daughter that leaves HPI mags around the house has got him enthusied ..... all his mates drive holdens .... the front of his business looks like a Holden Dealership theres .... mum n dads clubsports .... ben n steves SS's .... Sabrinas Astra .... Kims Barina .... Courtneys Maloo ute :cheers: agh!

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
