Re: RB30ET missfire/ignition problems.

Update. Checked the engine harness with a multimeter, found a bad connection on the negative wire from the noise suppressor (capacitor), and also a broken wire from the coil to the capacitor. Not completely broken, about 2 strands of wire left in tact. Everything else checked out ok. Haven't had the...

Re: RB30ET missfire/ignition problems.

Couple of updates. The disconnects are related to my wideband. Nistune seems to run fine while the wideband isn't connected, crashes as soon as i connect. This only happens since i moved the battery to the boot, so I'll check earths etc on the wideband. Also need to update to the latest version of n...

Re: RB30ET missfire/ignition problems.

Hey guys. Ok. Seems i have 2 separate problems. The issue with the misfire, tacho jumping around etc, is in the engine harness near the crank angle sensor. I have had the CAS plug on and off a hundred times over the last few months and it never made a difference, however one day while mucking around...

Re: RB30ET missfire/ignition problems.

Hey guys, Still haven't had a chance to work on the car, but going to do a few jobs on her tomorrow. Matt - No DLP here, i meant to say serial/usb converter not A/D converter.

Re: RB30ET missfire/ignition problems.

Can't get a log, nistune and my a/d converter for my wideband both keep crashing, seems as soon the misfire happens? not sure how they would be related. Its raining here at the moment so only trying to log in the shed under no load. I'll get it out when the weather fines up a bit and get some logs u...

RB30ET missfire/ignition problems.

Hey all. This isn't a nistune problem, something to do with the car, but I'm running out of ideas. Car is a VL turbo 5 speed. RB30ET with Nistune, GTR injectors, intercooler, 14psi from std turbo, 3" exhaust. Basic setup. The car has developed a misfire, it starts at around 2500rpm, wether unde...

He has already fitted the Sard plugs to his harness. The bottom of the connector hits on the fuel rail before it clips onto the injector properly. If he decides to change injectors again later on the plugs will have to be changed again.

Just an update, He went over his consult port install and found he had messed up the power and Earth connections. Got it fired up and running, consult connected etc, all looking good. He swapped his injectors over to the new Sard 550's, but the new plugs supplied with the injectors wont clip on prop...
