Hi Guys

Does anyone have an airflow meter I could borrow for a day or weekend at the most? I'm just trying to isolate an idling problem. I have tried swapping my AAC, air regulator and doing all the other common bits and pieces to find my idle problem but still no success. I just want to swap my AFM with your one for a day or a weekend to see if my car idles better as soon as I find a difference or not I will give it straight back to you - I could even notice it straight away. I will pick it up swap it and put it right back.

I have an R33 with a 3 pin AFM.

I would really appreciate any help. Prefer someone from the capalaba area or indooroopilly area as I travel a fair bit between the two. But Im not picky

cheers

Some people won't know how many pins their AFM has. You are after a series 2 one.

If you get stuck and can't get one, email me and I'll offer some solutions.

3lit3 32: Thanks for the backup champ, hopefully I can get one.

Rhinorebel: Thanks for looking for me, damn garage. ;)

Anyone one else able to help? would be really nice if someone could. All I really want to do is see if I can get my idle to be stable at 650-750 rpm. If I see no difference from my current idle situation then damn there is something else wrong.

No AFM here but have Datascan set up to plug in to see whats happening , at Shailer Park 0414 645 755.

Well if the datascan setup could find my problem then maybe I should try it out. Though I do have the consult interface but I dont have any software to run it properly and a laptop would be helpful. I took my computer out to the garage to log a few things but such a pain karting it around.

    • Dunno what to tell you, when I look at it on Consult I can see this warmup timing map kicking in around 40C coolant temp and it sticks around for a while:  At part throttle on the normal base timing map it peaks around ~43 degrees of timing or something like that, this warmup timing map drops it to like 12-15 degrees. 
    • I don't think that's what you're seeing. Something else doing that. The only time I've seen it get so retarded is when it's trying to control idle (in which case we're not talking about mapped timing tagets anyway) and when there is an extreme coolant temperature sensor fault. The RB26 ECU is essentially the same as the 20 ECU and I knew that ging inside out. There is no facility for it to retard that heavily on cold start. The OEMs never used to do it back then. I mean, shit, the catalyst is abotu 3 miles down the exhaust anyway. Early light-off was just a twinkle in some EPA arsehole's eye back then, not a regular engine control strategy.
    • I must preface my comments with a general expression of ignorance. I have no specific knowledge of these NA automtaic things. I can only assume that the "steering wheel button" is for enabling the tiptronic controls. Wierd that it would even need/want a button for that... But anyway.... Was the car previously tiptronic? Did you put a new cluster in as part of all this?
    • Regardless, it doesn't seem wise especially on RBs to actually chase MBT. Timing scatter is the big one on stock CAS, even if that's fixed overshoot is worse than undershoot. 
    • It's all about reducing the overall output. Reduce the source of it, you have wayyyy less to deal with in every other step and trick you play with. It's why something like a modern vehicle, so VW, Audi etc, there's thousands of tables for the ECU to calculate what it should be doing with the engine.   Why would you NOT reduce emissions the most effective way possible, when it has very minimal tradeoff, AND manufacturers are always struggling to meet the current standards.
