apologies for the lack of updates. been busy with work.
Well....its back looks like its the decats causing the miss on part throttle. but as im not looking to get a remap/mod further (decats were added purely for noise) im going to take them off and refit the cats, the noise is amazing
its annoying not having the car run right and im not sacrificing the running of the engine for a bit more noise, especially if its making the engine run lean. so they will be up forsale soon. perfect for someone looking to get an uprev
update: fitted the new MAF sensor, and disconnected the battery for a few hours. took it for a drive last night and it seemed alot better. no messing about with revs and much smoother. im hoping this cured the fault instead of the ecu resetting the fuel tables etc. ill update after a few drives to see if its any different.
cheers for all the help though guys!
managed to get hold of a new genuine Nissan AFM for quite cheap. hopefully it arrives tomorow. going to fit it then do the pedal dance ecu reset. fingers crossed. will update as soon as i can
really appreciate all the help guys. Theres no CEL up nor does it flash as it splutters at 3k.
how much is a AFM sensor? im wondering if its worth just chucking one on? is it just the sensor peice thats bolted into the intake pipe, or is it the casing aswel?
cheers
Can Air flow meters be tested for flow via multimeter? Pin across the wires, blow into it, the voltage should change as it meters the air flow??
And a resistance test to check for a high resistance?
Ahh, that's not far at all!! I'll have to give you a call mid week to get booked in with you mate! (don't drive the car much, usually once or twice a week).
Are there any checks I can do at home with a multimeter? Or are they all live tests rpm related so require a diag laptop and driving?
Cheers for the help mate!
It's not a violent miss, nothing like a fuel cut where it feels like you're hitting a tree, lol, it's more of a splutter for literally a second, then carries on normal.
Really confusing me how it's only at 3k???
Afraid not , running these cars on 95 octane fuel is false economy I feel.
Have you got any ideas on the miss at 3k?
Ecu need a reset?
Lambda sensor?
Spark/coil breakdown?
So could this misfire be due to the map being reverted back for the dodgy afrs?
Or could it be due to possible high resistance in the lamda sensor wires if they've possible scraped on the floor.
I doubt serious damage has been caused. Is it a case of resetting the ECU for it to go back onto the proper map? If it on this high det map?
Do these have 'eml flash when knock detected'?
95 regular. But Just filled right up with shell vpower incase it was a a fuel issue. Do these HAVE to be run on super? I thought uk models could accommodate 95 Ron?
