sir how to check their coils?
measuring resistance?

Congrats on completing your swap! We need a running video! Also show a 0-100kmh run!

In other news, my 5afe is having an overfuel condition - long term fuel trim showing its consistently trying to reduce fuel injection. :s now I gotta figure out whether that was because I've been driving it in isloo cold all the time or is it because of high fuel pressure or because its burning a little oil too.
Tedious job.

As I Remember.....13.8 OHM......Check It B/w Two Terminals of Injector...

thanks bro..
yes i'll post a video after getting it completed...right now struggling for some paint work and interior repair.... but this SUN is not letting me do anything..
i hope tomorrow sun will show up

bro may be your injectors need cleaning?

Sharo53 (Sharo53) 2013-01-01 08:20:42 +0500 #145

will check and let you know

SER i am not sure about charges in Lahore but here in Islamabad they charge around 1000Rs for cleaning.

BTW i also heard very good things about Liqui Moly injector cleaner and they say it works gr8.

Sharo53 (Sharo53) 2013-01-01 09:44:51 +0500 #147

removed seats, carpets, few parts of interior for general servicing...but so Sun no servicing...

guys from where can i get this original type sound deadening sheet?

clogged-up injectors/dirty injectors run the engine lean, not rich! Leaky injectors would be another tale.
I'm gonna check the state of spark plugs too just to confirm.

The low VF value could've been due to recent ECU reset alongwith driving in near-freezing temperatures.

Is that ultrasonic cleaning? Do they replace the microfilter in the injectors and do they do leak testing also? Where from?

(sorry for hijacking your thread bro )

Morning update!: The VF issue turned out to be nothing. I rechecked the voltage at vf and its 2.2v - thats like.... a perfect tuned-up engine!

I also took out the engine coolant temperature sensor and cleaned the gunk off it using my brother's dremel tool - after that the engine is running even better mashallah.

One thing I'd like to ask the experts and if anyone else wants to pitch in, please feel free:

VTA-E2 voltage (tps voltage) at the ecu comes out at 2.2volts at wide open throttle (WOT). Isn't it supposed to be at least 3.7v or 4.5v? My TPS physically cannot go above that.
All other similar throttle position sensors I tested at the kabli parts supplier also give the same resistance range: 0.4-2.9Kohm
What is one to do?

sprayed the car's floor from both upper, lower side with this..
bought it for 350Rs
2liter petrol used to make it thin so it can b sprayed through spray gun...
litle bit petrol used to clean the mess...

after results

guys petrol smell is not going away....what should i do...?
sealed the fuel tank from upper side where denter did cut/weld thing...changed both rubber pipes...placed double clumps on both pipes..

not having rear seats in car and can clearly see fuelpump's top... every one saying smell will not get away untill seat is places on it...
need suggestion...

well you did use petrol for the protective coating...its bound to smell for a few days if not weeks.

Sharo53 (Sharo53) 2013-01-05 15:41:51 +0500 #153

Bro, petrol smell was already there before undercoating..

SER_GTR (SER_GTR) 2013-01-05 16:48:54 +0500 #154

Wait For Some More Days.....If Its There.......Something is Definitely Leaking....!!

ahsanonline (ahsanonline) 2013-01-05 23:40:33 +0500 #155

Test for leaks right from the tank up till injectors. Visually inspect all joints and pipes. Do it with the fuel pump running.

Sharo53 (Sharo53) 2013-01-08 06:22:00 +0500 #156

cant smell petrol now but smell is definitely there..

good..
100HP in a hatch back is quite good..
u must be burning rubber...

Sharo53 (Sharo53) 2013-01-16 13:04:44 +0500 #160
