Hey guys,

Just after some help with my current problem.

When I drive my car and go over 5000rpm the revs hold up. When its in gear it will hold the revs say at 4000rpm and when I engage the clutch it will redline. It does this for a few seconds then goes back to normal.

When this happened last I put my foot behind the pedal and it was all the way up.

I've checked if the throttle cable is jamming and I can't fault it when the car isn't moving.

Cleaned the AAC

Cleaned the throttle body

What else can I check? I'm lost at what it could be.

Mods are:

Greddy plenum

Hypertune throttle body

3037s

Injectors

Power fc

Z32

It had all this work even before the problem started. And sometimes it won't happen

Thanks for your help

Possible TPS fault. If you can get a commander hooked up to the ECU, look for TPS voltage to drop to <0.5 V as you close the throttle.

Also you need to look for vacuum leaks and watch the ignition timing. If it is unusually high, that may cause a big rev too.

Thanks mate, ill check the tps

I don't think it would be a vacuum leak because it doesn't happen all the time

I changed the tps and the problem is still occurring.

I took the throttle body off and it still looks good. Sat there for a while opening and closing it and never jammed.

While I was out testing the problem again I would dab the throttle when it was keeping the revs up and it would stop.

I'm going to have a look at where the throttle cable joins the pedal and see how I go.

Wish me luck

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
