    Unhappy 1JZ ignition or fuel problem??? Plz Help

    I have had a 1JZ in my GZ20 for about 12 months now. I think my car is cursed

    My current problem is either a fuel or ignition problem.

    While calmly cruising at say 60kph, it will be misfiring, almost the opposite of surging, like its getting starved of fuel. I sprayed all the connections on the coilpacks and injectors with contact cleaner stuff and examined all the spark plugs, they seem all 'good'. No. 6 plug was a little blacker then the rest. I have a new denso fuel pump and ryco fuel filter.

    Also when I calmly accelerate, it will have no power, will reach just over 0.0 bar and thats it. But if i give it a bit more, it will then surge up and run normal (while i give it good acceleration), but then as i slow down to a normal pace, it starts piss-farting around again. It's embarrasing.

    PLEASE HELP

    On a good note, I ran it at Townsville Dragway and got: 13.7 @ 102mph with wheel spin all of my 60ft (need better tyres)

    So it isn't misfiring when you are at WOT then?

    Check the plugs on the injectors as well as the plugs on the coils.

    What mods do you have?

    Anything about about 1/2 - 3/4 throttle is fine. WOT seems to be good too.

    I've checked and sprayed all the connections in my coils, and injectors 1,2 & 3. Havnt done 456 yet. my luck is it's no6. Still dont know why. Could they be fouled/dirty injectors?

    A list of mods is on the link below in my signature...

    yeah, I would change the plugs. At that boost level ngk bkr6e or bcpr6e would be a good plug to use.

    A plug wire/s can do that. What's yours condition like & age?
