fun fact

laser printers produce ozone when they print

no idea how much tho

Anything that makes a spark; generates ozone.

Ozone generators are filled with thousands of tiny conductive filaments inside tubes, and high voltage electricity is fed into them.

This creates a corona-like effect; Basically like lightning in a bottle.

The resulting ozone is drawn off by a fan.

Fun fact No.2; Ozone is extremely toxic, and heavier than air. If trapped in an enclosed space, it displaces oxygen and can kill.

This is why commercial sized Ozone generators are almost always outdoors.

Fun Fact No.3; Ozone is is extremely corrosive. It will eat through 316l stainless tube.

What ozone reminds me of, is when my dad and I got up early and went down stairs to play with the Hornby train set. Heaps of sparks in the old electric motors, and ozone fitting the garage.

:)

Now I am older, I have teh stoopids from brain damage.

Wasted spark ignition, google it karnt. :P

Reckon my old 2.0 Alfa 164 had that on the "other" set of plugs...

I loved that car.... :wacko:

You C34 guys got your rust issue easy compared to that Alfa... And it was one of the more rustproofed ones..

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
