I'm pretty sure my fuel lines are right. When pump is on, the fuel flows to the metal tube that goes to the back of the rail. Then after the rail, there is my nismo FPR, and then the return line. If weather permits, I'll be looking into that CAS thing in the FSM again and try that. I assume that testing the CAS will also help determine if the injectors are working AND getting the pulse to make them work??S14-NEO wrote:backwards fuel lines..no injector pulse aka negative pulsing groudn coming from the ecu....check it with a noid light
Ok...I took off the 3 bolts holding the CAS on, and I see the shaft sticking out towards the motor. When I spin the shaft, I hear the injector(s) click. I'll go back later when it is not raining on me and check each injector individually for the click.S14-NEO wrote:negative, if it will fire up with starting fluid then it will def run if its getting the proper supply of fuel.yes by removing the CAS and spinnging the end witht he ignition on and listening for the injectors to click will tell you if you have working injectors and or bad injector drives on your ECU.
I'm going to work now, but if its not raining in the morning I'll check the voltages while spinning the shaft. I'll have to use my FSM to figure out the 2 wires on each injector....which one is the ground??KUILLIN_DRIFTER wrote:ok simple steps. If this is a fuel problem. Start by checking the 12vdc signal and ecu pluse signal (12vdc/0vdc off on like a relay). After u verify that u could look at removing the cas and spining it. Ensure u mark its position before u remove it. I had this same issue. exactly the same. Came down to my injector 12vdc power wire and the ground to my coil pack!
2nd this quick check... sounds like you need to make sure you're not running lean on start/idle for some reason (which is the base for a lot of the proposed fixes)Bluefire wrote:Heres an even simpler way... pull your plugs and see if their wet with fuel... If after a few cranks of the motor your plugs aren't wet then you got injector problems
Yep..will try some new gas...it's worth a shot. I can use Datascan to turn my pump on and let it flow into a bucket...lol Just have to leave jumper cables on the battery to keep it charged...Shocker wrote:how old is the fuel you are trying to use? it could be bad, thus not starting with it... I take it shes firing up with the starting fluid only for a few seconds then stalling out?
hopefully that is your problem! good luck.s13_240_rb20 wrote:

Ok...well, I tried to start it with starting fluid for about 10 minutes today and it wouldn't even respond to the starting fluid (even with the pump turned OFF to prevent flooding). So I decided to pull a spark plug and low-and-behold!!!!! Look what my 2-day old spark plug looks like:Shocker wrote:how old is the fuel you are trying to use? it could be bad, thus not starting with it...

Yeah i mean't to see if the injectors are operational.Carl H wrote:if its sparking then the cas is working, it sounds like a power routing issue.
ya, but it still isn't drivable. the idle is unsteady, keeps trying to die. I think it is going lean and bogging out when I rev....my "oxygen reading" in datascan should be fluctuating right?? I am assuming that is from my oxygen sensor...Shocker wrote:well I'm glad she fired up for you then, so it was the cleaning of the new plugs and new gas that did it?
Like said are all your coils firing??Is your BOV recirced....have you checked for vacum leaks?s13_240_rb20 wrote:
