Hi guys, i have a r33 gts-t. My revs are often very unstable, occasionally i switch my car on and the revs keep on moving all around the place.. between 500and 1000 rpm. When i accelerate, the rev fluctuations stop. Or if i leave the revs fluctuating for a short while, it goes back to normal..

I was wondering if anyone would know what is causing this problem, it becomes quite difficult to drive in low revs the car keeps on jerking.

I have a BOV fitted, could this be the reason?

also, sometimes my car almost stalls as i try to take it out of a parking, the revs drop so low that it almost switches off, when u step on the accelerator the revs climb up and it switches back on.

Lastly, when my car is switched on but not moving, if u turn the steering wheel the revs drop very low and the car almost turns off.

Somebody pls help!! i'm beginning to think i made a wrong purchase...

All help will be appreciated,

thanks

You have a BOV that vents to atmosphere?

Or the AAC valve needs cleaning (do a search).

what is the aac valve? where can i find it? i would have no idea about it.

get rid of the atmo bov, this is causing your problem. the engine expects x amount of air in the system your bov opens to amto and air gets vented to atmosphere but the engine still expects that air in the system so it adds corresponding fuel to that amount of air but the air is gone and mixture is wacko and it stalls. change to stock bov

Engine is under vacuum at idle, so BOV leaks additional air into the engine, severely leaning the mixture.

    • People think it's a waste of space, ugly, etc, generally associate "emissions control equipment" with "bad". These OBD1 vacuum-only systems I'm not a huge fan because I think they don't go far enough. They're wasting some of the fuel captured because they start purging as soon as the engine pulls vacuum. Later OBD1/OBD2 they put an electric purge valve on them to vent only when closed loop is active so the ECU will trim some fuel out. Even later OBD2 with zero evaporative loss the tank is 100% sealed from atmosphere until you run the engine or press the refuel door release. The tank has to take much higher vacuum/pressure spec but you never deal with saturating the charcoal canister and losing some fuel that way. The fuel also lasts as long as it would in a 100% airtight container which is nice when you're dealing with modern E10 pump gas.
    • If your luck is anything like mine, what happens is in the process of pulling hoses to get access to the one leak you create many more leaks because every o-ring was on the verge of failing and the strain of pulling it apart caused it to fail. Sometimes life is simple, sometimes you pay twice trying to save once. For the R33 you can still get most AC components from Nissan, I use nissan epc data or amayama to look up the part numbers and then search for the cheapest/most practical way of sourcing from there.
    • The dirty secret is there is nothing recyclable about the plastic bag or old plastic bottles either. Our local trash collection explicitly calls it out as hazmat in both cases. Oil-soaked rags + paper towels too. Oil-soaked cardboard is also not recyclable. The most common case of oil-soaked paper like that is pizza boxes, which are explicitly compost-only from the oil. To my knowledge hazmat oil contaminated plastic the only solution is either landfill or "thermal recycling". Most plastics in my experience there is slow permeation of the oil it's holding into the container so it's very challenging to get it 100% clean.
    • Yes, and since RAA insurance essentially being swallowed up by the same monster that is NRMA insurance and all those other clowns, they are no bloody good now either. We dropped RAA insurance for the house a little while back because they lost the plot.
    • I can tell you now, good luck if you're with NRMA (NSW equiv of vis RACV and QLD RACQ). Because NRMA are freaking horrendous to deal with for claims, even with a normal road car. Not to mention even more BS when they're in the wrong and didn't cancel a policy etc when they were meant to and make you jump through hoops for things.
