Turbz RB-25 Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Hi guys, I've noticed a couple of funny things going on with my car recently. Could the gurus out there have a punt at answering my questions? 1) I noticed the my ign timing is at 10 degrees when the car is idling. I've noticed in many threads people usually have 15 degrees. Will 10 degrees do damage to my engine? 2) After my tune, my car runs funny. Firstly, it idles strangely, the revs go up and down themselves, and sometimes, my car nearly stalls when I turn it on, right before the revs shoot back up to 1000 rpm. 3) when driving off boost (ie 0 pounds or less by not putting your foot on the accelorator hard) my car feels as though it's bogging, and sometimes, it stutters VERY mildly. THe computer I got is a power FC. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

bored33 Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 try cleaning your AAC first or even your air filter intake for the hunting issue. alot of people have had similar problems after tuning and have found just a simple clean would fix their problem. worth a try since it doesnt cost anything except time!

The Mafia Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 10 degrees at idle simply isn't enough timing. It needs to be at 15 degrees. This is easy to adjust in the powerfc.

bored33 Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 AAC - auxiliary air control i'm sure there was a topic on how to clean this just search it in the DIY forums Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/210440-issue-with-my-r33-gts-t/#findComment-3721575 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbz RB-25 Posted March 14, 2008 Author Share Posted March 14, 2008 AAC - auxiliary air controli'm sure there was a topic on how to clean this just search it in the DIY forums I tried to find a thread with no success. Could someone tell me what the ACC looks like and how to clean it? Photos would be even better. Or maybe just send me the link to the thread if you know where it is?

gtst25 Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Are you checking your timing with a timing light or on the pfc? Set your base timing on your CAS at 15 degrees using a timing light then tune with your pfc after that. That way you have a known base to tune from. I've never had to do anything with the ACC on any Rb.

Cheers sounds like you are right on the money man but what gets me is why do they only have a timming mark on the crank that goes to ten thats if each mark is 2 degress!
