Please Help Me With Missfire Prob It Only Happens When Under Load I Cant Work It Out Checked Everything


Recommended Posts

hey guys this is really frustrating has anyone had this prob before , when it sits still it revs out but when under load on the road it just breaks down , i have put brand new coil packs in , changed the plugs for the 2nd time in one week that didnt fix it i got em gapped at .7 i checked all the loom wirng voltages earths cant track it down like i said when it sits still it revs out but when on road it just breaks down

im desparate for help if anyone could please help me out would be much appriciated .

dan.

afm mate. mine was doing the same thing, somtimes it would have no throtle at all and just stop. i would wind the engine over and it would fire but wouldnt run.

other times it wouldnt rev over 2 2.5 grand. it would just bounce there violently my tuner and i pulled it apart and fixed it . or u could just replace.

but that is were ide be starting.

there is an earth on the fire wall for the coils check that. check them all. iwould seriosly try afm first but. unplug it and plug it back in thats what i did to mine and it would work for a while anyway. if it runs the same with it disconected thats probably the prob. they wont rev past 2.5 rpm disconected

If the AFM is the problem (which is what i suspect to be the problem with my car too) does the car run super lean when it loses it's throttle while still revving and also when it missfires?

I've got a forged built bottom end and don't want to do any damage to it.

Thanks

    • How much ya asking drunkan 
    • A few other things to round out the chassis mechanical checks. Diff is nice and full of new oil, pretty sure it is Castrol VMX (I run the same on Award's recommendation). I didn't pull the cover to check, but I'm 90% sure the diff centre is a nismo mechanical (old school, not the gt pro). Gearbox is also nice and full of fresh oil, not sure what it is but not redline. Tailshaft bearing looks OK and a tailshaft loop is in place
    • Front lower control arm is standard with new ball joints, tension rod looks like JJR spherical. Front upper control arm is standard with adjustable bushes in the outside end     Rear arms are all nismo, surprisingly all the bushes at either end look standard but in good condition Subframe has standard bushes with lock collars HICAS has a lock bar with standard ball joints at the hub end
    • Next, shocks/springs/swaybars It has Sydneykid valved Bilsteins with HKS pillow ball hats all round. Springs are Eibach race springs on adjustable height platforms, with helper springs in the rear to stop rattling. These are 250 all around but easy to change for something else if required. Swaybars are powdercoated blue but would be Selby's/Whiteline solid adjustables, 21mm rear and 24mm front. Bushes and links in good condition All in good condition, no sign of leaks/damage etc
    • yeah for sure.....remember to put your tools away at the end of each day kids!  Actually it has been kinda nice working on the car, lots of memories of good times. I can pretty much hear him telling me off for stuff still.
