Jack-GS

hmm im all out of ideas tbh gonna get a mate to have a look next week see what he can come up with, damn car needs to be killed with fire me thinks

nope still not sorted and still no closer to solving it either :/


swapped the coils round etc and still does the same,

keep taking tb off and looking about etc moved stuff around and put it back together and it ran smooth on idle and at low rpm occasionaly missed but then missed a fair bit when start putting some power thru it,

when its idling fine if you remove inj wire 3, it starts to miss exactly as it was before, and when its miss fireing, removing inj 3 plug makes no change at all so thinking its an injector fault or something fuel related

put some fuel injector cleaner in it, as it cant make it any worse haha, but I cant really drive it to get it to run thru because it miss fires badly again, whole car shakes when you drive it now :/ had it two weeks and iv driven it 10 miles haha 5 off which have been missfireing, great start to GS ownership !

Any idea which wires?

Changed coils and no different

Next is a trip to lexus for coilpack connectors i think

See what that does

Na

No lights at all on the dash :/

I left a sensor off by accident and vsc and vsc off and eml came on but webt out when connected sensor back on

Ran 4 different code readers but non would connect to it

They ordered the wrong coils

Ordered individual coils rather than the block ones that run two

Where abouts are you based dude?

Spl mate pentagon island

Changed leads

They messed up coils so had to reorder ..should get them tomorrow,

Will let you know how i get on,

Swapped coils over from 3/4 to 1/2 and its still doing it but the one thats potentialy faulty is easy to access

Now when u pull plug one nothing changes... Where as before the engine stutted more

So hopefullt a new coil on there should sort it

Fingers crossed

If not im gonna have to starr stripping loom looking for faults and consider it being the ecu

Nope

Changed plugs

Got leads and coilpacks on order for tomorrow

Did many tests yesterday and got to down to cylinder three

Injector is working so its spark related

Going to change plugs and leads today and whip tb off to have a look

Got my GS300 last friday and waited till today to get it on the road ( payday )

Test drove it before bought it and it was fine

Drove it home 10 miles and it was fine

Today i took it our for a decent drive, naturally this started at macdonalds

Goy maybe 6/7 miles from home and it started running lumpy and no power which then got worse and worse

Pulled over and gave it a check over all seemed fine, turned back on and it was still rough

Got tool kit out and took the 4 plugs out i could get to and triee each one for a spark etc all fine

Kept looking

Startee it again and wouldnt start

Called aa and he had a look

Chucked some fuel in and still no luck ( just incase)

He banged the tank as i started it and it fired up but ran rough

Any ideas?

Origional thoughts were plugs/leads etc

But now leaning towards fuel pump

Yeah thats them

They are HID aswell

Assumed they were standard look good anyway!!

Cars turning out to be a better deal that i thought then!

Knew about exhaust and wheels and plate but headlights and spribgs are a welcome bonus

That lots worth alot more than what i paid for the car haha

Ooo headlights? Whats different?

Yeah definatly lowered then, not enough tho haha

Cheers all!

My new whip, wont really be doing much other than driving it tbh,

19 inch millies magila wheels

Top performance pro 1 cat back

And when i took wheels of to clean the springs are black and say h&R on them? So im assuning there lowering springs?

Will get proper pics when i can

Yes i know the exhausts need a good clean, my bro has my metal polish
