hey guys,

I have recently pulled the stag apart and detailed the engine bay, and put it all back together on the wkend it started first shot no worries but when I accelerate and take my foot off the gas the car struggles to idle and cuts out sometimes.. I removed the plenum, throttle body, rocker covers etc.. just wondering if anyone has had this problem at all.. any info would be great..

cheers guys

Did u plug ur idle control solenoid back in? Double check all plugs and hoses that you touched and even stuff u didn't, it's posible u left something undone or knocked it loose. If it only started playing up after u touched it then there is a 99% chance it's something u have done

hey guys,

thanks for the reply's.. I have looked over the car every where.. maybe I put vacume line on in a different spot somewhere but pretty sure there all back in the same spot hopefully.. :( the only vacume line that I wasn't sure of is the one under the bov??

Its not the BOV; the BOV story rings some truth but its right up there with coilpacks being the fix for 90% of problems according to the forums...theres likely still an underlying issue.

Definitely find the tutorial and give the AAC valve a clean. Made a big difference when we had low speed/snap throttle closed stall issues with our S1. Curiously replacing the O2 sensor also helped, though ours appeared to be the original item.

    • This could be sold and shipped to the US for many gold pieces. RMS has no say in that. Ask various Western Sydney inhabitants how it works.
    • Ha ha ha, mine loves to spend, all on the dogs (they're our kids, and her spending would likely rival that of some people raising children!) the only benefit is, her spending is tax deductible as she runs a business in the dog industry 😛 The above all means she can spend race car budget quicker than I can. 😛 That and a lot of the things I want are very expensive, and I can be a bit "you want how much for that?!" And at other times overly impulsive. Or I start the w days of research, get to day 1.5 and get really annoyed that no one will advertise actual specifics and it's just marketting BS and I go "well, now I don't want anything to do with that now!" Also I hate paying lots of money for something I can make from $50 in materials. Then I get the shits halfway through making things and wonder why others who just buy parts have more fun... 😛  
    • Their 240Z with the RB26 would be a real nice thing to have in a garage to come out for an occasional weekend cruise It's such a cool thing in so many ways Sadly, we have a blue 240Z shell that I walk past every day, just sitting outside a shed at work, it has been slowly disintegrating and falling apart into the ground for the last few years, the owner cannot be found, and I am unable to "claim it" I've been told by work and the RMS, the rust in the body is excessive though, and it has had most of the salvageable stuff, like panels, trim and switch gear stripped off it over the last year or two, work keeps threatening to put it in one of our metal scrap bins, I wish they did though, as it makes Mark sad walking past it  
    • Good tips, I like it! 😂😂 My wife is a LOT more frugal than me so it's only me we need to worry about! A splurge to her is buying 2 pairs of socks in one visit at Kmart!
    • Haha, the appropriate response to the question "Is this new?" is "I've had this for a while.". With the unspoken small print that a while may be the time since this morning or five years ago   And to be fair I learned that from the best, i.e. my wife. Because it goes both ways.
