Hi all, I'm a new member to the forum so please go easy on me. Recommended by another member by the way. (Cheers adi )
I hate the fact that my first post here is a problem but I guess I would never have heard of the site unless I had this problem.
My brothers has a Mk3 2.5 TT R (1JZ-GTE) Supra and has just developed a miss at 1500+rpm. It only happens when the car is warm (eg sitting in traffic). Once the car is running on the road its fine. As soon as he gets stuck in traffic or is sitting still the miss comes back. It seems to be all 6 cylinders.
Car boosts fine, runs perfect when cold and idle's perfect when warm. Engine sounds perfect (no noises or rattles).
But every so often it will miss when you accelerate it or it will try to stall.
He's now replaced the plugs, fuel filter and reset the ECU but its still there.
You can burry the throttle and the car won't rev above 3000rpm. It misses for several seconds then suddenly clears and you're on the rev limiter
No ECU warning light is displayed either.
Any ideas guys/gals?
Any info appreciated as the car is becoming undriveable.
