Rb25 series 2 spark plug issues - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

240-mike · 03-19-2017, 08:29 PM

Okay so I've looked through many different threads and can't find a straight forward answer to my problem so please don't give me the bs about starting another thread. So I can't figure out what to gap my plugs to, I have fmic full exhaust upgraded fuel pump stock Ecu stock intake etc. I was running on 10psi and every time I'd get into high boost it cut out so I figured I needed colder plugs along with regapping them, I've Gapped them several times with no luck, everytime I give it gas it won't rev past 3 grand and just falls on its face. Any helps appreciated, oh and the plugs I went with were the NGK bkr7es I believe, thanks again.

i have the same mods on my series 2. I run a .8 gap. Change to a colder plug. You are potentially having coilpack issues. make sure all the grounds are proper for the coilpacks

Series 2.. so im assuming you cant check your codes

Stock is the bcr5 I believe so from my understanding I already switched to a colder plug unless I'm wrong, and yea I thought about the coils too but the car ran fine with the other plugs other than sputtering in high boost so I don't think it's the coils. I think I'm gunna try iridiums tomorrow.

Also had them gapped to .8 and still did the same thing

So, were your spark plugs stolen? I don't understand.

Did you seriously just report me, TO ME? "Doesn't help me find my issue, and is frankly just annoying." I had hoped my post would help you realize that you posted this in the "Stolen Goods" section of the forum. Perhaps have a chuckle and ask me to move it to "Tech Talk" where it belongs. It seems I expected too much from you. I set the bar too high, clearly. Such a pity. That is what is truly annoying. Had you perhaps slowed down and paid attention to where you were posting, you'd likely have more answers. Most of the time, members don't poke their head in here unless they have have had something stolen themselves or are trying to help a friend find their stolen belongings. The Tech section is chock full of helpful individuals though. I'm going to need you to strive a bit harder to be a better member of this community in the future. I assure you, it's worth it.

Tried to post in tech talk actually, so I didn't think to look were it was posted. Honestly could've just told me that it was in the wrong section. That way there wouldn't be any confusion. I apologize thought you were just pissing with me

Also using the mobile version, isn't the greatest to navigate.
