    Thank you Adam - Great insight as always.  

    I secretly love how Link does their own CEL nomenclature with their own fault codes.

    I had some time this evening to dig into Nissan’s factory service manual and back-traced it to the throttle control in the IPDM.  Swapped a relay and the car is running (rough) and the faults have ceased.  

    Thank you again!  

    Hi BealJK,

    I'm having the same issue after doing the 75mm throttle body mod on my 350z (VQDE). I get the fault code 73 as soon as I turn the key to on position. I see a low voltage error in the ECU Status. Which relay did you swapped? My battery sit at 12 v ign/off and 14 v ign/on except when fault code hit it...drops to ~.4 v.

    Its a bit hard to tell with no lambda, but if I were to hazard a guess I would say "heat soak" of the IAT sensor and metal around it causing it to run lean after a hot restart until the temperatures start to equalize.  

    You could try adding some extra fuel in the IAT trim table for the first minute or so of running when IAT is high.  

    It seem the IAT correction was set to off. I turned it on and so far it seem to work. I'll adjust the table if it need it. Thanks.

    The leans spikes are puffs of oxygen going through the exhaust.  It appears to most likely be a misfire as it looks worse as load increase, but could also potentially be an air leak, exhaust leak or similar.

     

    I found a small crack in the wideband bung and thought that was the source of the leak. After welding it, I still get the erratic AFR. No cracks in turbo manifolds. I don't see any other area in the exhaust for a leak.

    Not related but just FYI before you tune too much: it looks like your VVT offsets might be wrong as your inlet cams appear to top out at about 30deg when they are trying to reach 40deg.  

    How do I correct that? I upgraded the cams and I want to get the most out of them. Thanks.

  5. It's strange that those figures before were bad, but the car ran fine with a correct AFR. I tuned the fuel table and was ready to go on the dyno for more tuning. It's running now but the AFR is bouncing all over the place. I'm getting huge spikes during normal driving. I still can't seem to attach a log. Is there a calibration step for the wideband? My old UTEC setup had a calibration step for new wideband sensors. 

  6. I managed to get it to idle by adding a crazy amount of fuel than previously tuned. My fuel table went from the 27, 28 in the idle cells to 65. The wideband is bouncing between 14.0  and 15ish. Could this be due to a faulty wideband? I'm having some issues with attaching files.

    Can you give us more of the story, has this previously been tuned and running ok and just stopped running?  Or is it a new install etc?  

    It's not a new install. The car was running fine until the upstream O2 sensor on the passenger side went bad. I changed it with an old one I had laying around and car was back to normal for a few days and the sensor went bad again. I decided to replace both upstream sensors and the car would still idle rough, but no codes. I replaced injectors with new 550cc ones since I had to upgrade to a bigger size anyway, checked spark plugs, coils, connectors. Now the car won't stay idle. It idles fine for a few seconds and die. I can rev it up a few times and it dies even when giving it gas. O2 sensor starts at .85 volt and drop to 0.0 just before it dies. Fuel pressure show 52 psi at idle. Please see the attached log. Thanks.

    I would be checking the basics such as fuel pressure and all injectors are working.  It appears you can keep it running by pumping the throttle which would suggest there is a lack of fuel.

    I added a fuel pressure gauge and it shows 43 psi. New o2 sensor , injectors, wideband sensor and car still won't stay running long enough to read AFR.

    Thanks. Unfortunately, I don't have a fuel pressure gauge but the injectors are new. Maybe the pump? It's over 14yrs old. I do hear it prime when I turn the key.

    From looking at the tune the NB sensors don't affect the fueling of the vehicle but the wideband does. You have one wideband hooked up but your CLL is setup for dual widebands and so any CLL correction made will only affect one bank of the engine, that being said it isn't making any big changes in your supplied log.

    Have you considered that something else has gone wrong with the engine which is causing the NB reading to look wrong and making it run rough, say if it missing on one cylinder that will both make it run rough and will change the O2 reading on the sensor on that bank of the engine.

    I guess it's possible, I may have a bad coil pack. In the process of troubleshooting the bad O2 sensor, I went through the coils, spark plugs, wires and connectors. Once I changed the O2 sensor with an old one everything was fine until that sensor went bad. I will check the coils and spark plugs again.

  11. The voltage will ramp, match the other for a few seconds and settle back to 0. It does seem to run ok for a couple of minutes.

    does it only run bad once it's up to temperature?

    Your tune shows that it does use the NB sensors but only once it's up to 70deg c coolant temp and only between 1200 and 3500rpm

    Yep, it does idle smoother at first start.
