Its cool, really appreciate the Help Ian! No Just since I re-connected the Idle air reference hose but since I disconnected it she idles and sounds normal; she seems to boost as normal with the Idle air reference hose disconnected; I presume the Diaphram in the VSV is preventing any boost leak I know the Clutch plates can rattle on Idle; it is a bit annoying!

Sorry Ian It all spans oiff this Thread , you helped me with http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?273756-fuel-regulator-vacuum-pipe-jspec Re-plumbed in the Idle air reference hose for EVAP system; Engine light and she smells of overfueling Error codes 31 -- Air flow meter Circuit short 34 -- Turbo Pressure Malfunction;short in VSV or waste Gate Circuit I disconnected the Idle air reference hose for EVAP system and Engine light is gone, she sounds OK ; no strong petrol fumes from exhaust Obviously something is amiss in the EVAP System; what is the best approach to take? By-pass the system? I cannot see any obvious loose or worn connection ; to be honest all the pipes look 19 years old; its hard to tell what is causing the issue. I looked at the MKIV article on how to bypass the Charcoal canister but it is pants , anybody have a decent How to Do? thanks

I have a triple plate clutch in her , maybe that is the ticking ; hardly the injectors ticking or is turbo fubar

I'll get my coat!

Sold them early in the month, needed some $$ to finance the track day. I can always buy another set again but I am liking the pre-facelifts Wouldnt mind some new pre-facelifts though!

Tyre shot is gas, are you running too much tyre pressure, they look completly worn in the center?

Ronan! Nice Guy , his E30 is stunning! You should see his Mini and E46 with the BBS! Always chattting with Ronan at EliteAutoclean plus he lives at near me. See it at a few shows too! Was going to head down but want to sort out this Idle air reference hose for EVAP system first! http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/601057_391954560840536_1864431919_n.jpg http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/476696_391946234174702_209085478_o.jpg

Thanks Ian! Diagrams really Help, I was ready for the hammer yesterday! I had to have a popsicle to cool down ha ha I have the Fuel Pressure reference hose only connected to the map sensor & boost controller via the Idle air reference hose intake input for EVAP system (Blue pipe in the pic) ! I disconnected the Idle air reference hose for EVAP system to get home! With the Idle air reference hose for EVAP system connected she was overfueling alot and everytime you turn the key she would splutter and die. I traced the Idle air reference hose for EVAP system down the intake to steel pipe that splits into two hoses, I ran my fingers along each hose and found no tears or loose connections. The Blue hose you see above running from the Idle air reference hose for EVAP system is the vacuum hose for my boost controller, So I presume if I re-connect her she will get the same symptoms? Overfuelling etc Has something gone in the car to cause this? I cannot feel or see any issues with the hose itself? Not 100% sure what I need to do to fix it? Sorry!

FP vsv

Thanks Ian , I followed the vac pipe from the Map Sensor to the steel pipe which splits into two Vacuum pipes to the FP vsv I managed to get a pic of the FP vsv ; so I think one of the pipes has popped off the FP vsv , just need to see if I can find it later from the pic Looks like it is under the intake, I presume I should be able to feel it with my fingers ; I dont have a ramp so will be going in from the top deck ; so far I cannot feel any splits of loose vacuum lines Please ignore the disconnected yellow pipe in the pic, I just hook the fuel regulator to the Mapsensor and bypassed the FP vsv vacuum pipe so I could get home

Got to race a Ferrari 360! Was able to get some distance on the straight and keep up in the cornors! He was driving it like he stole it! Mondello is a very technical track, not suited for big cars! A small light car, like the Elise, S2000 will trounce all over a Supra or Skyline; by the time you get into your power curve you need to brake Great day out all the same! Have some Go Pro I will post up later

Hey Was at my first track day today, lost all power on the straight in the afternoon session , over fueling (black smoke) big thanks to colin in ssi for the help over the phone; knew what the issue was straight away!(Vacuum Pipe on Fuel Regulator) I have two vacuum pipes going from the map sensor, one of the pipes is easy accessible on the fuel regulator on top of the intake but the second goes between the intake and cam cover , loops down into a metal pipe which splits into two vacuum pipes near the rear firewall Just the fuel regulator vacuum pipe to MAP sensor is connected , the 2nd Vacuum pipe that disappears under the intake is disconnected at the moment so I could get home Not too sure what they are for as she seems to run ok without it connected ? can touch them with my fingers but cannot feel any tears or loose Is it an intake off to get at the vacuum pipes? Is it safe to drive the car with just the fuel regulator vacuum pipe to MAP sensor connected ?

Hey I got the same problem towards the end of the track day; to get home I bypassed the vacuum line from the map sensor goes between the intake and cam cover , loops down into a metal pipe which splits into two vacuum pipes near the rear firewall Not too sure what they are for as she seems to run ok without it connected Is it an intake off to get at the vacuum pipes, can touch them with my fingers but cannot feel any tears or loose

Hey Was at my first track day today, lost all power on the straight , over fueling (black smoke) big thanks to colin in ssi for the help over the phone; knew what the issue was straight away! I have two vacuum pipes going from the map sensor, one of the pipes is easy accesible on the fuel regulator on top of the intake but the second disappears over the intake and disappears somewhete deep in the block I cannot see where it goes, does anybody have the schematic or know what it is iff? I have it bypassed in the interim so i could get home

Oh yeah The pics above is after 40 miles from when it was done

From what I was told, over time it will eventually loose the shine and go dark grey
