i think ive found another problem.....

[jiw]

Hi all, had my r on the road a week now, well worked for around two days in total.

Suddenly the car lost all power so i got my check light working again after the previous noughat of an owner took the bulb out.

i had a code 34-det sensor so i replaced the det sensor with a new part along with some denso plugs
(heat range 8 ) nissan leads new rotor arm and dizzy cap fuel filter and also fitted an uprated fuel pump. also a mongoose downpipe as my bog one was split on the flexy.

i noticed that my old fuel filter was seriously blocked, i could barely blow air through it.

after driving ten miles i developed an uncanny misfire throughout the rev range, after investigating and eliminateing all the new parts i had replaced i could not find the problem, it almost sounded like i had a blowing exhaust manifold gasket.

whilst the engine was running i gave number one injector plug a wiggle and the car ran like a dream, then the misfire returned, my injectors are also slack in the rail.

could the increased fuel flow be causing my injector o-rings to of failed and be drawing in air, i have noticed that the carbon deposits on top of the piston have also been cleaned to bare aluminium, (no pits though thank god)


if injector o-rings is the case do nissan keep them on the shelf as i can see them being a multi fit part, also is this a common fault and how much do these cost?


help appreciated, i would really like to drive the car but as of yet i aint got far, lol, im finding this car quite comical, it never goes to plan!!!

Hmmmmmmmmm careful, personally take out the injectors, get new seals, bet them cleaned and balanced by a specialist Bosch agent, then you know they are good, and check the condition and standard of all the injector wiring in your bay check for chaffage and damaged wiring and go on from there. Does sound like a poor connection on one of the injectors chap. 8)
