white-gt Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Hi guys i posted a threat in the ignition bit a few weeks ago as i had what i heard was a miss fire high revs in 3rd and sometimes 2nd. So i went out and cleaned the plugs (iradium grade 7( like a year old as they wernt that bad and i tried to adjust the gap very slightly which i now know these dont like and changed the rotar arm. So put it back together and went out, any kind of throttle and it starts to miss, especially between 2200rpm and 2800rpm, so you could be in 2nd at 1300rpm and try accelerate about 40% throttle and its blurb blurb blurb.. so i ordered some new plugs and its still the same. now this major miss fire didnt start until i took the plugs out and cleaned them while changing the rotar arm. i done a 18 miles trip with the iradiums in after cleaning them and below is how they look after being cleaned up, now they look alot worse than they did the first time i took them out.. i thought i noticed a slight crack on one of the bent metal strip but not sure if it just a mark.. whats your thoughts please? i've included my dizzy cap also Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 im gonna get a loan of some leads and see if that solves the issue. any other thoughts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris_GlanzaV98 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Check leads and coil pack also make sure the dizzee was put back on exactly where it came off Plugs look fine i could say you could rule them out, unless you have messed the gap up Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 the dizzy is deffo on the same way and the rotar is on how it came off... thanks for the suggestion pal Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 Changed the leads with 2nd hand leads and no different. Checked the plugs and they r fine, but the sides of the metal tip are white.No smoke but the stutter is mainly at 2200rpm to 2600rpm..Any suggestions ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jay85 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 What boost you running? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 i only run 1 bar, but this is off boost, i dont even get to have any boost.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jay85 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Silly question but did you swap the king leads when trying the other leads?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 no i couldnt because the other king lead was gubbed. i dont have another lead to try... thats really the only other thing i could try but i dont know any one who can give me a loan of one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 ive tried resseting the ecu and trying for fault codes befopre and after but to no avail ..Getting stressed now.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jay85 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 You're gonna have to go to your local toyota and buy/beg a king lead to try Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 right ok, i'll do that mate (£20 from id-workz) you reckon thats the culprit? would that cause the high end miss firing in 3rd on wot u think? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jay85 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 It's what I'd try first tbh Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 im borrowing a working lead, ignitor and coil, try get to the bottom of it!!Thanks jay Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 ok so changed the king lead and ignitor+coil pack and dizzy.still no better. if you try accelerate even gentle in 1st gear it will gangaroo about and same in 2nd if you try accelerate that bit too much and the rev needle bounces about..im trying to attach a videop so you can see what im talking about. really not sure whats going on now! what would be the effect of the rotar arm being on say the wrong position so say it should be at the top but is put with the connector to the bottom? just so i know.. any other thoughts? i just went and put fresh fuel in also but that was a struggle!

Ollieh17 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 check the wire into the igniter next to the king lead plug, my wire from the ecu had exposed wires in and was causing an issue when wet. Bit of electrical tape and its fine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 it does look as though the intake pipe has been resting against the top connectors and some look squeezed but its looked like that for a while now! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

white-gt Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 possibly a lambda issue? i cant think what else... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I defo check all the wiring isn't damaged, looks very similar to mine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white-gt Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 just double checked everything and had jezza come have a look..we think it might be the fpr.. it started dying on idle and now its undrivable, you try pull away and it just dies down to like 400rpm and give it some throttle and it bobbles about and gets its revs back but now cant pull away..we never touched any leads or anything before this happened. we took the vacume line off the fpr and the symptoms didnt change which made us think the fpr at fault..any thoughts? their isnt any markings on the unit so not sure what make it is..

white-gt Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 So I changed the fpr today and it got worse and now won't start, I tried swapping the pipes round on the nipples to check I didn't get it wrong but still no good.So I put the original back on and it still won't start.. I've tried the vacume pipe into the inlet manifold from the fpr also as that's where it's now plugged into . I still get petrol comming out the fpr when I UN plug it .All ignition leads etc are in fine .Any other thoughts ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
