Blackie Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I over took a car on full boost and my car just died, All the lights on the dash came on/Stayed on but the car wouldent restart. Left it abit and after about ten mins it started up again. Drove it full boost (With the rac following and flicked it in to neutral and bang it off the rev limiter and it didnt cut out an has been okay ever since. Any ideas?

L18msy Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I aint to clever about this stuff but i will have a pop at it. Could it be a fuel cut defender? Someone tell me to shut it if i'm talking balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Not got a FCD on there mate, Good shout though Not having one would mean if you went over the boost limits (1.0bar IIRC) you would hit fuel cut. It wouldn't stall the engine though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly an old N/a fuel pump running a TT? Only thing is it wouldent start again for ten or so mins, Would a blockage cause that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Possibly an old N/a fuel pump running a TT? Sounds like it could be. Not sure on the N/A vs TT fuel pump differences though. It also wouldn't really explain why it wouldn't re-start, something has either blocked the fuel or stopped the ignition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest james mundy Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 All right Fella sounds like Crank position sensor they tend to fail at high temp and will often restart after a brief wait when cooled down, don't know too much about supras i only got mine a couple of days ago so no idea where it will be proberly next to the flywheel. This might help you out hope you get it sorted soon whatever it is mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's plugging it in to the launch diagnostic so hopefully it should show an error code for the crank sensor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
