recently converted my patrol to efi and had nothing but issues

its stumbling when revving off idle and poping through the intake I have replaced

fuel pump walbro 255lph in tank

spark plugs and gapped to 1.1

dizzy cap

afm

tps

aac valve

fpr

coolant temp sensor

intake manifold gaskets

put a kit through the injectors and replaced all the seals

timing is set to 15c btdc +2

every now and then it comes good

if I block my return line it revs normal

sometimes it decides to run rich for no reason

any ideas guys

Clean up or replace all the sensor plugs as they corrode and get bad connectivity.

My R31 has been doing this on and off for a while and I've replaced alot of the same things you have but I'm going to be replacing the CAS plug and Coolant temp sensor plug soon.

Get on R31 Skyline Club and you will find this is a VERY common problem with RB30's

Could well be AFM. I'm looking into purchasing a newy or a Refurb as all of the three I have are 20+ years old and unknown condish.

Best I've found so far is a New aftermarket for $175+ post.

PM me if you want one. :thumbsup:

Could be dodge Earths or Loom related. The intake Backfire is supposedly a Lean issue, so any shortage of fuel or incorrect airflow signal could be to blame.

Airleaks, Fuel line Blockage / filter, injectors, so many things.

Have you read the ECU leds for Fault codes?

only codes I'm getting is a/c speed sensor and the one saying everything is working good I've changed all intake gaskets and hoses changes iac and gaskets to try fix the issues no change new fuel pump and fpr i can hear the pump pressurise and there is pressure in the line if i take it off i have only used the stock efi loom earths on the manifold but surely that should be plenty there straight to the battery i have removed the fuel filter there was no change I'm going to buy a new dizzy with cas,o2 sensor,leads see how that goes afar that everything has been changed except the air valve thing on the manifold near the thermostat and the ecu

The "Air Valve Thing" is the Air Regulator. That should really only do anything on Coldstart, as in, when you start it and let it idle, if the idle drops down after 30secs or so, it's working.

    • I did a skidpan night at SMSP this week, it was much cheaper than $350. But yeah, you need to slap an LSD in that thing.  I put an OS Giken in the 370Z and it's f**king MARVELOUS even compared to Nissan's viscous LSD. So you're saying it's free now that it's a housing estate? 😂
    • Nah, the car seems to run exactly as it did prior, in saying this it does "seem" to be better down low, like more eager to rev, but that may be 100% placebo effect from intake noise But, I'm not worried about it at all, in the end it is a fairly low compression NA engine that has a well shrouded intake,  if it is getting hotter IAT I cannot notice anything negative performance wise from the seat of my pants thrashing it about on the street or sitting in traffic, so meh, car now now makes induction noise so I'm happy
    • Do you have an IAT sensor? It's worth checking it to see. You may be suprised how little gap you actually need to flood your engine with hot air. (I tape up my airbox for a reason) :p
    • @KinkstaahKrinkle paint the "silver" alloy, not the red filter frame Engine bay heat won't be a issue worth worrying about as the silver alloy blocks it off on 3 sides, as for the top, the bonnet seals most of it and the big OEM CAI intake snorkel is still fitted in its original position  I will head into Clark's Rubber when I have some time to grab some pinch weld to tidy up the alloy after I paint it As for performance, I honestly wasn't expecting any, the only reason I got it is because the intake noise sounds cool to my old ears when I'm feeding it the beans Sometimes it's the silly things you do in in life that gives the most fun, and I do love anything that makes cool car noises In other news: I survived 4 nights at sea with Jackie not throwing me over board, holidays are continuing now as we are currently chilling at the Beachcomber in Toukley, after taking the coast roads from Sydney in the MX5, top down all the way, Toukley is where I spent a good deal of my youth holidaying during the summer months, there's lots of reminiscing going on,  and lots of beaches and old houses to visit Next on the list is to head to Batemans Bay for a few days, but we will take the Commodore out to stretch its legs, then Commodore hasn't really moved for months
    • There’s probably people who’d like to do it and then when it comes to putting their hands in their pockets they’ll all disappear into the shadows
