I recently(2weeks) installed my engine after i swapped the injectors to the newer style, delete the egr,did the water bypass, installed new belts, new seals, ect.

I used it for about a week then noticed loss of power at first I tought it could've been a clogged injector but then I got a faint gas smell but there was a old truck in front of me and tought it was coming from it then the next day I had the same smell this time there was no car infront of me so I knew it was my car the first thing that came to mind was a gas leak from the injectors so I decided to park the car till i fix it.

Then this past Monday i had to use my car as a last resort I had about 1/4 of a tank so I went to the gas station to fill up. The car fired right up and when left the gas station again it fired right up I got in the freeway ran about 5 miles then decided to go deposit some cash in the atm i got off in the exit and started to slow down to 2nd gear but didn't release the gas pedal I passed the yield sign still in 2nd the atm was about 1 block away so I just went slow then entered the atm line and I released the gas pedal and shifted to neutral and the car died I tried to turn it on whith the speed i had left but it didnt work so i stopped the car tried to start it but nothing then i tried again while slightly pressing the gas the pedal and it seemed as if it wanted to turn on but wasnt getting gas



So far what ive tested is the fuel pressure
I removed the line thats after the filter connected it straight to the gauge and got 20psi when i turn the key to the on position and 65 when i crank the enginge

Also tested the injecters with the CAS
I removed the sensor as soon as i started to remove it the injectors started to click i pulled it out and turned the small gear slowly and heard them click

Any tips or toughts in what else to test

I havent been able to pull the penlum for further investigation of the injectors

Also i might pull the spark plugs tomorrow to see how they look and if theres spark

 

When you turned the CAS with the plugs removed, did you smell gas or after cranking the engine, are your sparks plugs wet with gas... cause i'm having the same problem right now. I blew up my tt engine last year and swap a JDM one in my car in april... only one cyl. is getting gas and I don't know what the problem is. (Sparks ok, injectors clicking ok, fuel pressure seems ok) I'll look at my pump today to see if the fuel pick up isn't pinch and if not, I want to swap my injectors in last resort cause it's time consumming and I'm not sure if it will fix the problem... Tell me if you fix your car, I'll do the same... Good luck

 

If you smell gas, you have a fuel leak. Simple as that.

 

I changed the fuel rail along with the 6 injectors and it started perfectly

 

I did a ecu test
This is what I got

21: ignition signal circuit
34: detonation sensor circuit

Also the instructions I read about the ecu test was that the key was suppose to be in acc position but the light never came on in the ecu so I set it to the on position

 

So I did a "sub harness bypass" to the ptu and then did another ecu test this time the 34 code went away but now I have 14: vehicle speed sensor circuit

edit: so i removed the ground terminal from the battery and once i reinstalled it i did a test again now i just got the code 34

 

I tested the ptu
I removed the 6 pin harness and tested the volts all 6 pins in the ptu they had .02v so I assumed the ptu was the problem

But I decided to test the volts on the 7 pin harness the one that's sends the power to the ptu and it had the same volts .02v so now I'm thinking it might not be the ptu since its sending the same volts its receving

Also tested the 6 pin harness the one that goes to the coils they had 12v is that normal?????

 

I did checked all the fuses and relays they are all ok

 

I did a compression test I got 60 and 80 on cylinder 3 and 4 so I checked my timing belt and it had sliped =(
Because I had forgot to properly ajust the belt tensioner.

So now I took it apart and this time I did ajust the tensioner to 4mm

After I finished I did a compression test again and I got 210 to 230 on all cyl except on #3 I got 120

Could I have damaged the valves and caused the psi to increase so much?
