  1. yeh i did search that was the problem there have been so many threads on it its very difficult to sift through it all and extract what was personally relivant
  2. anyone else with them? just got a policy with them, semed pretty friendly and helpfull
  3. think il save up and get one but time being i think repairing the one ive got is the best option, you would think taht sum 1 out there would produce a non genuine but quality repacement for it, within the uk. (some one out there nudge nudge)
  4. yeh new loom is summin im more and more tempted with, considering this is sucha common falut im assuming zedworld have/sell replacement connectors so im gonna give them a call tomorrow see it i can get some and maybe new cas and water temp, while im at it those boys look set to cause issues soon.
  5. yup agreed, mines having its injector plugs and coil pack connectors renewed soon. had a chat with the guy across the road an old rally entusiast he had a quick look and told me basically clean my connectors better theyre not fully clean and this may have made the issue worse or ittermitent from the removal of the grease and spreading the fillings about etc, ie clean them better it will probally work. the throttle position sensor was the one that he told me off for lol
  6. and the problem hasnt gone, yesterday it was a little funny on idle. so today i cleaned teh idl;e control valve connections and teh cas and ptu and water temp for teh ecu. bothe the cas and the water temp(ecu) were a bit tatty. now it well just doesnt run on its own ie some accelorator has to be applied. im gonan book the car in tomorrow with alocal jap specialist. im convinced its summin tertribly silly. but my noodles baked with it and id like them to have a good poke around and check the rest of the car over.
  7. right, went for a quick drive it seems to be firing on all six now but still bogs at idle which im for the time being gonna assume is the idle control vaklve which il have to take apart and clean see if taht cures the issue. the car drove as normal as it ever did if anything it seemed faster. the turbo kicking in was like warp factor! lol i believe the virtual pint goes to zed me up for suggesting pushing the spade a little closed witha small screwdriver, it did the trick
  8. ladies and gents the non firing cylnder is firing, trouble is anopther has gone down just gonna try the same trick
  9. how did you trace your faults was there a method or simply a case of going over eachwire witha fine toothed comb?
  10. mine are brown. its a jspec 1990tt
  11. osty1 was that on the spark circuit or injector circuit? and zed me up i think your right im fairly convinced that its summin of that sort its just finding out wetahter its right without replacing everything till summin helps, time is not on my side
  12. i swapped the plug for teh cyldner next door and the cyldner still doesnt fire, hence ive pretty much decided its not an issue with spark there was a good healthy spark from the plug when i checked it.im thinking its either the ptu the harness or the timing in some way. but i cant see how taht could have changed overnight
  13. how can you find out wether its been taxed recntly etc or are these perks of peoples jobs?
  14. whoops that will need replacing then
  15. yeh been through all the injector connections its starting to do my head in im sure its summin silly/electrical
  16. cheers black zed i read your post earlier and repolied to it, tried swapping therough and just ran codes which came back code 55 aka alls good
  17. i used a long maybe foot to 18" on the plate on top the injector heard lots of rapid clicks they all made the same noise.
  18. coil pack is faluty by the sounds of it you should be able to test this by swapping it for a known working one from another cylnder as youve done but retaing the same plug. you can do the reverse to check the plug. hope that helps
  19. because there mesaured in a differnt scale jap is measured in cm3 or summin and uk spec in psi summin along those lines. tells you on the gauge itself in tiny writing
  20. :confused1:i had a weird idle which upon investigation reveled i had a misfire on the drivers side front clynder. ive cleaned the injectior connection, done the screwdriver test, and it was clicking, ohmed the injector which came back with 12.9 i believe this is acceptable? ive also checked that i have a spark swapping the coil packs made no differnce and i pulled the plug and grounded it to the plenum and i got a nice fat spark. the plug itself looked normal no blackness or chunks missing etc. ive cleaned the ptu connections. all im thinking now is taht it could be the injector connector is so badly corroded its past salvage? any advice greatly recived my mot is due this week and im assuming im not gonna be passing with a misfire, due to emmisions.
  21. hrm just replied to you baz then read this lol. no closer to my misfire then :/
  22. dunno been faffing baout with mine, checked the coil pack by swapping over and checked im gettinga spark at the plug, which it was and ive checked the injector with the old screwdriver trick, gonna ohm it check its working properly then do a compression test like yourself, next thing im thinking is the ptu or summin maybe im gettinga spark just not at the right time. basics really atm feul spark compression timing? let me know if you sort yours il keep you posted on mine
