Is the tps v and timing reading correct there?

Tps is but the timing is not... I spoke to Parksy and he said for some reason when plugged into the TB42E thats the reading that shows... I plugged it into Georges car and the timing was spot on?? not sure why.
Interesting that the timing reads that. Is it only with that style of reader? Does George have a you beaut snap on or similar reader?
Yeah and it is spot on... it is set at 23 degrees?? Its not pinging and the car drives perfect but since the new pump went in it is using way more than it did before???
On idle the injectors do move a bit but for the most part sit around .4milliseconds which is too long from what I have been told??
The injectors were from my donor car and were sent to be cleaned and checked for leaking???
I have thought maybe injectors??
I have to pop to the shops in a minute so will try and get a value on them while driving..... eyes on the road Rhonder !!!
I wish I could pop over and take it for a spin, just to get a feel for it and see what it's doing. My patrol returns about 15l per 100km. Yours should be the same. What does the accelerator pedal feel like? Does it feel pokey? Eg, on mine, I only need to push it down no more than 2cm because all the power is there. No need to sink it into the floor. Generally if you need to constantly sink the pedal to drive normally then something is not right. I know your O2 sensor isn't right, it should fluctuate when driving.
Injectors went up to 15.00 on normal acceleration and even hit 20.00 for a nano second.
The maf voltage sits at about 1.6v on idle but 3.6 on acceleration ??
The o2 sensor is new but a cheap one off ebay and does fluctuate but spends most of its time at .9v
The car drives beautiful Andrew but the fuel gauge is moving so quick... this tank I am now in the last quarter of a tank and I have only done about 250km .
I'm not a 100% certain but those voltages seem to be ok considering their operating range.
You poor bugger man, I hope you get this sorted soon. Have you thought of doing what i did and just buying a banger to get around in and tow the trailer, the repayments on it are only $65/week. Which by the sounds of it would be a lot cheaper than the fuel bill.

What temp does your engine usually run at BA? It says 78 in the pic you posted which is fairly cool. A cold engine will use more fuel. Should have an 82 degree c thermostat. Diesels run a 76 degree c thermostat.
Have you ever pulled apart the aac or what ever it's called off the back of the plenum and given it a clean? I'm not 100% on what it does, but it does play a part in changing the airflow within the engine and also changing the idle speed when you turn the ac on. They do get gummed up which will effect its operation. There's a valve or 2 on springs that can go stiff and not slide properly if dirty. Carb cleaner and brush for the win.
Kept quiet about a booked dyno run for today and rushed around like a madman to get there by 8.30am to be told " Didn't anyone ring you the dyno is not working"...
Got told to come back in the afternoon and it would be done then.. came back and got told to ring again tomorrow morning about 10am to see??? I took the day off work for this and just got stuffed around...bloody pissed.
Billy did a fuel pressure test and it came in at about 36psi??
Bugger!!
36 psi is no good. If your pump is new then the next thing would be the regulator. Sometimes you can tell if the regulator is u/s by removing the vacuum line while the engine is running. If fuel comes out, it's bad. Sometimes it can take 5 mins of running before fuel will come out. But this isn't always the case with a bad regulator, it just could be one of the symptoms.
Why what should it be???
I had to read your post a bunch of times then...... brain elsewhere!!! just been looking at Toyota diesels on ebay.... bwa ha ha ha
Should be 40psi. Doesn't seem like a big difference but mine used to be 36psi also. When I changed the pump it jumped up to 40 and made a big difference to how it ran.
So with the vacuum line off there should be no fuel coming out of the reg?>??? is this correct???
I actually thought it was supposed to be 40psi and stated so but edited my post as I thought how can 4 psi make a difference??
That's correct. No fuel should come out. There are some YouTube videos of blokes testing their regulators.
Hate to burst your bubble but like i said if it was at 229kp@12v ( about 40 psi) like its meant to be, your economy would be worse. Theres something there that i can't put my finger on, get it dynoed see what they say
But if it's a dodgy regulator leaking petrol into the intake, that's not going to help economy...
I just sliced my finger open like a bitch..... might need stitches.. !!!!! fwark..
With the vacuum line removed fuel was pissing out..????
There's your problem. New regulator is needed.
Just googled it and my mistake.... cut myself open for nothing... I going to get my gun!!!!!
Did you remove a fuel line??
What.... the first time I removed the return fuel line and the vacuum line.... and of course fuel was pissing out of the outlet for the return line.. yes I am a dopey prick.
As for paper cuts I have had over 27 stitches in my right hand alone and removed most ... lost count on the left hand.
Wheres my dinner I am hungry.
Bahahahahaha. You're a funny man jono!
I think weve been here before and you lost
