Is the pfc software set to the z32 afm make sure the plug gap is .8mm and check if the wiring to the z32 afm is right you can read the plug wrong from left to right had a car in the

other day with same problem all it was was the afm wiring was wrong if ths is all ok check fuel pressure and the tune

def woulnt be a melted piston it wouldnt go do_a_skid

andogtr z32 air flow meter has always been in the car and tuned to the power fc. it only started this problem a few months ago it just got worse. i regaped the old plugs and cleaned them and put them back in and now goes hard. but it did that with the new plugs for a few days then went back to how it was. so might be fowling the plugs ? the new ones i pulled back out are really black and sooty .

Well Curtis you are getting some were sounds now like the tune and fuel pressure need checking i actually dyno tune and fault find for a living done alot with pfc s if you need to run it on our dyno we are in ulverstone at southside on 64259320 your only in burnie arnt you so wouldnt be much of a hassle to look at your car for you Cheers and good luck

Yea post up if tune fixes it. My stagea is doing the exact same thing. Hand controller says it leaning out on output (-12). Valves have been opened to maximum when previous owner had it tuned by fuel tech in Launnie.

    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 馃槵 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 馃槄

    • Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 馃ぃ, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up
