So a few months back i had the turbos in my 32 Gtr swapped out as they were making a whine. Not sure if its the cause/related but thats when i noticed that on ignition area around injectors 1 and 2 was hissing, oil pressure gauge read about a quarter way up even cold and would miss/splutter beyond 4k rpm.

Changed the coils, cleaned and re-gaped the sparks. Took it for a test drive and the missing stopped beyond 4k rpm. Feeling pretty good i thought to stop and get fuel before going home. Left the servo and rev'd to 4.5k in 1st and just as i clutch in i hear a pop noise on my left like an intercoolerpipe has come. Put it in second and engine sounds horribly rough, oil pressure light come on and engine cut out a second later.

Towed the car home and noticed that fuel has sprayed out from injector number 2.

Any one have any thoughts? I've tried searching all the different symptoms separately but no joy. In pretty amateur mechanically so id appreciate any wisdom/insights

You popped a intercooler hose and your car went stupid rich!

Take off the splash guard underneath and check to see if the intercooler hose has come off. The car can't operate with a massive air leak, the AFMS just skitz out and f**k yo shit up.

Was there heaps of black smoke when this happened?

I kinda had this today actually.

My injector 6 was making a hissing noise.

Turned out to be the oring was in sideways .

Even though i took it off TWICE it somehow went in sideways each time.....

I took the whole rail off, greased it up again and put injector 6 in byitself and the rest in the rail, plugged it all in and stopped the leak.

( mine was leaking air, not fuel)

But it does sound the same problem as me.

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity.

    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
