i got this weird prob with my 32

it seems to misfire when i rev it and idle is pretty rough when i have the filters fitted, took the filters off and it ran all smooth

the filters are new and the afm i am running are MINES afms

what brand of filter? it sounds like maybe.... (if its a wet/oil soaked type air filter like K&N) that a bit of the oil is being sucked through the afm and messing with the readings. causing rough idle/missing etc..thats my 2cents anyway

If it was wet type, he'd still have the problerm after removing the filters, is sticks on there, if it was sucking that much in, he'd have to drown the filters in oil...sure he isnt that silly ?

Give the sensor in the AFM a clean with some CRC and reset your ECU.

Running a tune ?

Air leak somewhere perhaps?

Also. Straight 5-56 CRC lubricant isn't a great idea.. everything sticks to CRC. proper way to clean an airflow metre is to take it off the car, get CRC Mass Airflow Sensor cleaner. Clean it, let it dry, and put it back on.

Maybe try borrowing someones filters to put on? Doubt it's the filters though, but that will rule that out. If that doesn't work, maybe borrow their AFM's and see if that fixes it... Just eliminate possibilities

well cars are just weird, i changed the spark plugs over with new ones seems all good now. (old ones were black)

btw im running powerfc do i need to retune since i got MINES afms?

hmm its possible the ecu may need a retune. if it comes back start at the cheapest options and work your way up from there, as stated earlier borrowing parts is a cost effective way of eliminating potential causes.
