If the backfire is a burble when you let off, this is 100% fine and happends with most larger exhausts...

Also, if the BOV is atmo, it will make the car run rich on gearchanges would could partially attribute to the backfiring

Is it backfiring as in BANG BANG or just pop pop?

Its just the one pop (smaller than a full on loud backfire but bigger than a burble)...I think your diagnosis of running rich is on the money cos I have also found a decent amount of sooty residue on the tailgate ledge which I think indicates the same...

Thanks.

Mate pretty simple, if your BOV is atmo (in other words goes psshhht!) then 99% chance its your problem. Nothing to worry about really. If it really bothers you then get a plumb back BOV or get rid of the AFM. BOV's on AMF cars tend to richen the mixtures when you back off the throttle which gives you your back fire.

      I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real

      Actually I might have figured out. Looks like there is a tab according to google images but it's hidden. Silly me.

      No clips on this one like the other connector. Only that red tab that I can push slightly up.

      For any loom connector that has an obvious release that resists pushing far enough to unclip, just spray some silicone lube into it. You might also benefit from using a bent screwdriver or small pick to push in the right place at the right angle.

      R34 GT Indicator not Cancelling

      By silviaz · Posted

      Hey all, I went to try and fix my indicator not canceling, but I couldn't remove the clockspring cable under the column so I could twist that green thin. Anyone know how to remove this cable? I see this red tab but didn't have any luck. I was thinking of unscrewing it but wasn't sure if it would cause issues. I did notice for my indicator stalk, 2 out of 3 cables were plugged in but the last cable wouldn't fit in the stalk. I'm getting it's for fog lights. It was like this when I originally pulled it off.
