Hi guys,

Just after some help for my r34 gtr..

It was fine last time I drove it and has been parked in my shed for the past 3.5 months while I have been working away. Today is the first time I have driven it since and it started all fine, drove it for over an hour all good, washed it at the car wash and as I was parking it up to shammy it dry it was hunting up and down almost to stall from 950rpm-609rpm (power Fc). I have since driven it home and all was fine when driving, only at idle it does it.

I put the a/c on the problem goes away and I turned the a/c back off and the problem was fixed for awhile i turned the car back on and the problem was there again.. so I decided to clean my z32 Afm's and no difference in the idle.

Could it be stale fuel causing this problem?

I don't think it's the afm's ..

Hi Choyda,

It's only a brand new fuel Walbro 255l pump installed by my tuner 5 months ago

I hope it's not the pump.. But then again it has been sitting for a while..

Not really running overly rich I would just say normal

With a PFC there's often a problem with the hot start and not with the cold start.

It tends to happen when the car has been standing for at least half an hour to a couple of hours after a run. It can take a few seconds after hot starting for the PFC to catch on.

Your tuner might just adjust the idle for you within the narrow boundaries of what a PFC will permit.

Hope this helps.

    • LOL.... fk...   there goes 25K to make 200kW
    • For sure the later RB26 variants had a different setup (6 cam voltage sender?), but the RB25DE/DET share the same ECU pinout/PCB footprint, and at the ECU plug it ends up being 'throttle sensor in' & 'throttle sensor out' (to A/T TCU) ...you stick a multimeter on these pins and you'll find them directly connected (0 ohms) ; I had an pair of Nissan ECUs on the bench long ago, and I noticed this throttle sensor in/out link, actually linked to an op-amp ...which was unpopulated on the NA board, but present on the T board and I went 'ah-ha!' in some moment of clarity... ...it wouldn't surprise me if they changed strategy here though (in the software and actual monitoring of this signal), because they did with other stuff (A/T signals).. and 0.45v as a trigger point makes sense, as that's what the external TCU units expect at idle ; kudos, thanks for that insight...I suppose it boils down to whether or not Consult can display real time data of that signal's voltage... ...in any event, it presents the same target...ie; rotate TPS unit to achieve 0.45v to suit both ECU&TCU, and where do you goto from there? Just disconnect TPSwitch connector and/or that plus TPSensor connector....or do you go for the throat and disconnect IACV solenoid and see if it still stalls? (probably throws a recoverable fault code and goes for default idle strategy?)...
    • I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it. 
    • MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
