Tricky-Ricky Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Check your brake fluid level, and top it up as high as you can, that should cure it;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanM Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I have the same problem at the moment and it ain't a fluid problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Have you checked for fault codes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattysupra Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 could be the ecu picking up det on the engine. What fuel and mods you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Never seen a ECU throw up a fault code for det, it just retards ign timing;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattysupra Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 only reason i say that is today we took a skyline that we had loads of engine work done on and mapped back to the tunner because the ecu light was flicking on and off when putting your foot down, When we got it back to the guy who had done the engine work the first thing he asked was what petrol you running it on. I say optimax of course and then thought i better ring the owner and double check to see what he had filled the tank with! In the mean time we had downloaded the log off the ecu of what had been happening. The tunner looked at the mass of figures ( which mean nothing to me ) and then stood there with a strange look on his face, looking at me waiting for the answer off my customer on the phone........ 'i filled with normal unleaded' he said. It didn't go down well. So drained the tank and filled with optimax. The ecu light has stopped coming on now!

Digsy Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Check the fault codes first. Could be as simple as a code 42 error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 only reason i say that is today we took a skyline... Alas this is a Supra and it doesn't monitor knock as stock by flashing the MIL. -Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
