hey guys i went down to see my car about 4 or so days ago and saw my car now they were moving the car in and out fo the factory each morining and night and so more as well, now i notice the air flow meter was not hooked up or there and the hose from the top cooler pipe to the waste gate was not there either, now i went down today and they siad it run out of fuel on idle and so they filled it up and now it runs crap and just stall and willnot cleanly rev like you hold it at 2500 or 3000 and it not like what is used to be and i have some noise in the area or my cams and timing case which i never had whole thing just sounds really bad ,now first the car shoulnt run whith out the af meter and no hose on the wastegate i could only imagine, now i spoke to my mechaninc and told him he siad could be a dead meter or fowed plug(s) or vacume leak , now it has a new hks cooler kit, so i am wondering has some one drivin my car and Ducked it

no for people who dont know i crashed my car and i stuffed my fmic and guard etc and some side panels 1/4 etc not pretty. now could a hard impact stuff af meter cause it did hit there and break a mount on my airbox, and bent cooler pipes and put holes in it .now is was dirty and dust grassy crap in my engine bay after accient from shrubs etc so could this have gotten sucked up and done bad stuff, the car was drivin about 5 or so ks to a friend place ,so could that have done something to anything.

any advice would be great just trying to figure out if the panel shop has stuffed my car

Are the intercooler pipes connected? Will not idle properly if they're not.

Is the AFM connected? Couldnt' work it out from your post. If its not, it won't idle/run properly.

I'd say in any case your plugs have been fouled.

dude, if you've had a bad front end smash do you really think its going to run ok?

Get the chassis fixed, then take it to a mechanicfor diagnosis. If you're claiming insurance, then this should be covered.

By the sounds of it, there are air leaks everywhere, afm isn't even plugged in, and all of your pipes are bent.......

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
