So I finally took the time to troubleshoot an issue I was having with my "spare" NA Z. Whenever I would start it when it was cold I would drive it and it basically had no power, it was acting like it had no fuel, the rpm would bounce around while accelerating and it would backfire gain power back lose power again.... very frustrating. Then after a couple minutes it would feel completely normal and I couldn't re-create the issue when I turned it off and turned it back on while it was hot. I checked the coolant temp sensor, changed the spark plugs, checked for air leaks, disabled the egr, sprayed the MAF with MAF cleaner, adjusted the TPS then I found out when I was checking the timing that my timing was jumping around between 15 and 20 degrees. So I swapped out the cam angle sensor and now all is well, the timing is now set at a rock solid 15 at idle-warmed up. I could almost swear it feels a little bit peppier too. :)
*disclaimer*: all that I say may be true or I may be completely wrong and I accept that.... please, it is your duty as another person on the internet to in-politely tell me how wrong I am :) "The dreaded 2nd windshiled wiper swipe when you turn it off its almost like tis showing you that it's boss, and it doesn't have to stop when you tell it to :("-College Boy (discussion on ptu relocation) "No good reason to put it there anyway. -Bernie (NoVA) False -vorpalZ False. -Bernie (NoVA) You're correct, there are 3 good reasons -vorpalZ False. -Bernie (NoVA) Wow, right again, just remembered another, make that 4 -vorpalZ" XD
