I Need 2 Get Injectors Cleaned 4 R33 But.........


Recommended Posts

yeah i need to get my injectors cleaned 4 my nissan skyline r33 its a 95 model and its non turbo, manual. I was going to get them done but the guys that do it told me over the fone that they would not do them cause they will leak or could leak and then they have to do it again and that ...cause of warranty and that ....so its not worth there time i think....so they said id have to replace them...others told me they can do thme no problems.. so what do peopel know from experience doing this my car sort of jerks a bit sometiems when you take of and that. so i think its the injectors...i live in dandenong north, melbourne.....does anybody have any advice or know anybody good i can take it too in melbourne....or maybe its another problem who knows.

regards brian

Im getting them cleaned cause it says on the message..on top that the car jerks a bit when i take of or at low revs in the first few gears...i wnated to do a carbon clean in answer to another message but i cant find anybody that does it here. i contacted one that did it a company but they said they got rid of that cause...it didnt really work. i wnated to do it on the car so i would not have to take everything apart... maybe someon that does this job in melb..the carbon clean even if it doenst really work the best...better than nothing...yeah

Why they made the statement of them leaking is that as injectors get old and wear the carbon seals the wear points, so after cleaning them hence removing the gum that seals them they can then leak. When mine were done there was up to a 10mil flow difference in some, on the flow bench. One leaked so had to be replaced. This was on my GTS-X that has done 161,000 ks

Ok cool yeah. mine have getting worse as well. so i better get it cleaned. Hopefully will inccrease my fuel economy and more power. then again my non turbo r33 2.5, 5 sp manual doesnt seem to waste much petrol anyways so thats good i guess. hopefully now it will waiste even less. and hopefuully none of the injectors will leak after cleaning

Yeah thnaks for the responses that i got. I will ge thme cleaned see how i go. Also a mechanic i go to now in dandenong who imports these cars told me that, it could be the spark plugs cause i cleaned them witha wire brush and that, he said teh lead deposits can make it missfire, but i dont think, so cause the first time i cleaned them they were ok and the problme started long time after that was done.

Yeha i got the injectors carbon cleaned the guy ran the car with these liquids for like 2 hours...the car went for ages and this black stuff came out ..all the carbon deposits...smelled like someone had been using an angle grinder or something. but now the car does not jerk anymore. and i saved all the work of taking the injectors out and that. plus i have been told the injectors on skylines usually leak afterwards..so they are usually just replaced and that, instead of cleaned. its not worth there time cause thne they have to be taken out again. I also bought new spark plugs, so hopefully that will make it even better than it is now.....also i wnated to ask what is teh spacing for an R33 rb25 sparkplug is.

im not sure. does anybody know.

I have never heard of the injectors leaking as a common problem with the Skylines.

The Oz R31 - yes, they have the rb30 injectors though. They may have had them confused.

The RB30 injectors are well known to leak after a clean but the other RB engines do not have this as a problem as such - not saying it can't happen but it is rare.

How much did the carbon clean cost you?

Hey maybe you are right about thme leaking maybe they got it wrong or were just crapping me... and that . yeah to clean each one was like 35 each which is like 210 plus i had to take them out myself. if they do its extra.

and the carbon clean was only 130 for the job which they do on the car. I got it done in clayton thast in the south eastern of melbourne.

    • LOL.... a good amount of people (not all) on that continent seem to know everything and like to measure things in bananas, football fields, statue of liberties instead of the metric system lol.
    • I assume the modules are similar enough, so if you've had no issues I don't see why I would. I have tried to find a wiring diagram for the FPCM / fuel pump circuit, but I can't find it anywhere. Otherwise, I would just do some wire cutting and joining at the FPCM and give the 12 V supplied to the FPCM directly to the pump instead. If you know anyone that could help with wiring diagrams, I'd be very happy  
    • If it dies, then bypass. The task isn't difficult. I have one running on a standard R32 FPCM. That's after nearly 20 years of it running an 040, which pull substantially more current than the Walbro. They're not the same module, but I'd hope it indicates that the R33 one should be man enough for the job. I think people kill them when putting proper sized pumps on them, not these little toy pumps we're talking about here.
    • Silicone spray won't hurt anything. And if it does, that's an opportunity to put some solid steel spherical bushings in, so you can really learn what suspension noise sounds like, If you're going to try it, just spray one bush at a time, so you can work out which one is actually noisy. My best guess is that if the noise started only since putting the coilovers in, then it is just noise being transmitted up through the top mounts of the struts, and not necessarily "new" noise from bushes. But it's almost impossible to know.
    • Are you saying the 34 is SUV height, and not that we're talking about an SUV here? (because if we're talking about an SUV, you don't fix them. You just replace them when something breaks. Not worth establishing sufficient emotional connection with an SUV to warrant doing any work on one). I wouldn't jack my car up on a short little loop of 10mm steel rod poking out through a hole in the bumper bar, front or rear end. I realise that we're probably not talking about that type of loop at the front, being the one under/behind the bar on a Skyline.... but even for that one, trying to jack up on what amounts to a thin piece of steel, designed purely for withstanding a horizontal tension force, not a vertical compressive force (and so would be prone to buckling/crushing) and, my most particular bitch about it - located RIGHT AT THE EXTREME FRONT OF THE CAR, applying a load up through the radiator support panel, etc, with almost the entire mass of the car cantilevered between there and the rear wheels? Nope. Not doing that. Not on the regular. That structure out there in front of the front crossmember is not designed to carry load in the vertical direction. Not really designed to carry any load at all, really. The chassis rail that the tow point is connected to would be fine loaded in tension, as per towing. Not intended to carry the mass of the whole car, especially loaded all on one rail, with twisting and all sorts of shitty load distribution going on. No, I will happily drive up on some pieces of wood, thanks. That can only happen on driven wheels, and they are at the other end of the car, and this problem does not exist at that end of the car. And even then, I have been known to drive up on at least 1x piece of 2x8 each side at the rear, simply to reduce the amount of jack pumping necessary to get the car up high enough for the jack stands. What really really shits me about Skylines is the lack of decent places for chassis stands at either end of the car. You'd think they'd be designed into the crossmembers.
