the 3 bulk head relay should be on its own loom? Have you c101 pin out? sounds like fuel pump is wired to constant?

Damn that's a clean car.

Thank you

OK mate. Just quoting what you said in your words so i could convey an understanding of what i was implying. The change in voltage was progressive.

Ok, did the voltage in situ test TPS location (has yellow dot on it) Remove the cover And with the ignition on (engine not running) I tested the voltage to the TPS while opening the throttle slowly So i think i have good voltage at the TPS. As 3pedals (Ron) said, there weren't any gaps or inconsistencies when operating the throttle with the multimeter in. Anything I've missed?

"There are 3 prongs on the tps. Put one of the leads on the first prong and one of the leads on the last prong. You should get approx 4K ohms. Next, touch the leads to prongs 1 and 2 while rotating the throttle plate from the fully closed to fully open position. The resistance should flucuate from 1K to 4K ohms." that's the test i did yesterday, although i didn't get the 4k ohms. will try the voltage (in situ) test tomorrow afternoon and report back! cheers!

wow all that info! thank you! Obviously my search skill aren't as good as yours! It is reading 1-2 ohms just till around half throttle, just past half it will read dead. Im hoping this for me too, if its mechanical... another can of worms.

Ok cool! Is that resistance or voltage? Oh? The world wide web told me to test resistance? Sorry should have mentioned this is on my project e30 with a M50B25 non vanos and 402 ecu Sorry should have said this was on my e30 with a M50 engine

Hi all, (copied from my build thread) So i did some tests the other day on the electrics/sensors with his multimeter that is a lot flasher than mine, the coils came back reading good, and so did the crank angle sensor and cam position sensor. so i was standing around kinda clueless as to why it did so bad at the dyno. I checked the TPS, and at close (around 1.3ohm), to half throttle (2ohm) it reads resistance fine until i turned it just past half way. kaka. reads nothing. Online (because its sooo reliable) has told me to look for 1-4ish ohms. Does this sound about right for a faulty TPS? Or am i doing it wrong? cheers! ---------------------------------------------------------- update ---------------------------------------------------------- 1/11/2014 Hi all, put in some 21lb injector for my m50b30 stroker. Naturally it would hunt for idle because the tune isn't right(haven't been driving it, maybe one pull up the street then parked up). So I purchased a chip from Euro-tuning specifying my modifications, installed the chip, reinstalled the ECU and started it up. Waited until it was near operating temperature, but its still hunts for idle. Although it does run more consistent than before and less smoke out the exhaust. question is could my o2 or AFM be reading wrong(broken)? I honestly don't think the chip is bad, but then again, I don't know enough about chips to make that assumption. Here is a video of what is happening at the moment... you will see at the end of the video i look at some black liquid on the ground, it has the consistency of water but looks black. Is it because it has been parked for a while? (2-3 weeks) thanks for any help!

e30s are never a half hour job, take what you think it will take and then keep dreaming. haha jk. just my luck haha nice car btw

I found out a friend of mine did electrical engineering or something or rather! (good when you ask) So i did some tests today on the electrics/sensors with his multimeter that is a lot flasher than mine, the coils came back reading good, and so did the crank angle sensor and cam position sensor. so i was standing around kinda clueless as to why it did so bad at the dyno. I may have come to an answer! I checked the TPS, and at close (around 1.3ohm), to half throttle (2ohm) it reads resistance fine until i turned it just past half way. kaka. reads nothing. Online (because its sooo reliable) has told me to look for 1-4ish ohms. Does this sound about right for a faulty TPS? Also if anyone has any numbers for resistance i can compare to a good working MAF from an M50NV using a 402 (or similar ECU) that would be very helpful! cheers

Upgrading to a clio booster has made a huge difference to the brake assistance and feel, that and also a bigger MC and SS brake lines. Worth.

Good sh*t! maybe we could go for a cruise when my car is legal haha

Trip to the states anyone? haha

Made things a little bit more presentable under the hood (only presentable part of my car haha!) And also fixed an oil leak from the oil pressure sensor housing!

id like them, but i'm in Auckland

Id like to snail it, maybe later We did some stuff today! Rich and I made a semi diy vacuum leak tester! Made from pipes found at the local hardware store, (for some reason my s3 hates taking photos of car stuff....) Thankfully both our cars showed no obvious signs of any leaks.

haven't done anything other than a head skim, but that was only minimal. I've read that with the internals it would be around 10.1:1? i could be wrong though. The DME wasn't remapped for the dyno run. But a chip is on its way from the states that "should" help. There is something wrong with the motor past 5.5krpm. still need to figure out what. Might invest in a decent multimeter.

sick, mrs oil needs a change

haha i'm sure! i'm gonna polish the lips and buy new bolts then sell one real reason was the bolts holding down the trigger wheel were only hand tight, and 2 missing. So it caused it to misfire and the trigger wheel was flopping around! tested compression which came out quite well. still need to test the coils! When shes road legal, ill be over

m30 turbo? random touring pic

Not much to update, collecting parts at the moment Scored these pink top injectors and fitted them, also have a chip tune from the states for this set up Also purchased this LC-1 wideband for quite cheap! Bought these hartge wheels, which due to a recent change in circumstances, i will be unable to use them Because i scored these bad boys for a steal! and i need 17" minimum for them sorry for blurry pic they are off an e38 728i on a not so positive note, my car is 2db over the limit for an exhaust cert... with a silencer on it. need a new tip.

wow really nice GLWS

E30 m3? from personal experience there are only 2 reasons why you buy the 320 e30 1) you are in the e30 series 2) to throw out the 2L and put something better in.

good working order, came out of my running m50, checked with a el'cheapo multi meter, readings came out fine. m50 had 110xxxkms when pulled from the e34, havent done more than 1500kms since.
