Gslide Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 Hey everyone, My name is Gary and I live in the Houston, Tx area and I recently purchased a '92 SC400. I haven't done anything major to it yet, other than R&R and a few small touches. The car had been sitting for over 3 years so there is quite alot to restore, but for $1500, I cant complain. She just hit 250,500 last weekend and is still a pretty solid car with blown front everything.. and few other problems im working out here are a few shots of it the day i got it. I threw on my wheels for fun.. well the ones that fit Work: VS-KF 18x10 +13 / 5zigen: FN10R-C 18x9.5 +12 This is with the new lights and LED upgrades I also have my track toy, a Nissan 240sx that I am at the final stages of my 3rd engine swap. This time I have upgraded to a 1jz with a GT35R. Still gotta a long ways to go but its mounted, and most of the HARD work is done. for my fellow wheel fitment whores:) 18x10 +8 (5mm spacer) 225/40 & 18x12 +0 265/35 Well, I was recently driving my SC4 and all of a sudden the engine started to missfire and run as if half of the cylnders died. i figured the notorious ingition coil since it was one of the only things i hadn't replaced So I did the self diagnostics and these are the codes i received. 13- RPM Signal Curcuit 14- Igniter Signal 24- Intake temp sensor curcuit 31- Low air flow meter voltage FYI: plugs, plug wires, distributor cap & rotors had been replaced prior to this problem. So i borrowed a friends MAF, bought 2 new ignition coils and replaced them, but still not firing. tried resetting ecu to see if i got any different codes or difference in idle. No luck. Is there anything that I may have overlooked, or misunderstood from the codes? Thanks in advance for any insght -Gary
UCF3 Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 Welcome Gary. I thought it would be the MAF, but you mentioned that. It could be the TPS, but that has a different code. What type of Plugs and plug wires do they have, OEM, Denso, Bosch? ANy chance something is stuck in the Intake?
Gslide Posted August 15, 2008 Author Posted August 15, 2008 Thanks UCF3 i kinda needed them, so I bought the only ones Autozone had in stock. Bad Idea #1 NGK BKR6ES-11 Copper core and the plug wires were $60.. And on that maf... I borrowed his sensor and swapped it out, I did not replace the whole MAF housing. Intake was clean of debris, it does have a crack. But, You can't hear a leak through it.
Gslide Posted August 23, 2008 Author Posted August 23, 2008 well... It turned out that the timing belt had jumped teeth and was off timing Thanks for all the suggestions
