Hi everyone,

I have used search and found allot about misfires and other related issues, but nothing specific to my problem. Hoping to get some advice.

Issue:

I warm my car up to 80c on water temp (ambient water temp) and then as soon as she's about to drop idle down, Cylinder 2 stops working.

To date, engine compression is fine 155 on all cyls. Have tried the following to fix the problem: (also note that cylinder comes back on if you rev the engine, then shortly stops afterwards. If driving, you can feel it working, but it misfires.

So far, have replaced the following with no improvement.

Spark Plugs

Ignitor

Coil Packs

Coil Pack Loom

Tried that and Cylinder 2 still drops out when the car is warm. Also, Cylinder 2 comes back on when driving or revving the engine (but with a misfire).

Any other ideas? CAS?

Appears to be a temp issue..anyone?

Thank you for everyones help.

I wouldnt put my money on the CAS, more on a damage on the cylinder or a ring.. Weird though since the compression is solid.

Other then that it does feel like an ignition problem but as you state, you've covered some of those areas :woot:

Have you tried the diagnosis on the ECU? Or resetting the ECU?

Drove a R33 GTR that wouldnt run as it should, stuttered, but that was due to a bad lambda, doesnt sound like it though!

Thanks for that. Dont think its that though..

Add some specs of the car to help everyone:

R33 GTR

Engine Rebuild - Forged etc etc

Tomei Poncams

2 x Trust T51 Turbos

Power FC D-Jetro

Sard 750cc Injectors

Bigger Fuel Pump

Oil Cooler

Larger Intercooler

Splitfires

AVCR

Full Turboback Exhaust System..

That should help a little. Running 363RWKW's. - Still dropping when its warm. - What could cause one cylinder to stop when hot? And then come back on if i rev it...then when idle returns to normal, its drops out again...

dodgy injector plug?? no.1 cyl on my rb20 will drop out because the plug is a little loose.

Thanks for that. Would this usually happen when your car would heat up? - Like fail when warm?

Getting my injectors taken out today and cleaned (so maybe this might work).

Can anyone please tell me if a faulty CAS would cause my problem?

Cheers.

      Magnetic Drain Plug Snapped in Half

      By kevboost7 · Posted

      Update: I got the magnet out. I bought 3 different flexible magnetic reach tools, but none of them worked. The magnet on the tip was all less than 2lbs of force, so i had to buy a special cylindrical magnet that had a pull force of 9lbs.  The magnet finally came in the mail yesterday, so i got under the car to get to work. The super strong magnet isn't that long, so i only have about 1 finger pinch lengths to hold it. I was so scared when i was going in the hole, that the 9lb magnet would just fly away inside the oil pan never to be seen again, but i had my butt cheeks clenched and finger gripped on that thing so tight, i managed to get it to suck the other magnet out.  It was a victory for me last night.

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.

      Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃

      You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position.
