Hey everyone.
I have an 89wt sierra with a g16b (from x90)
It only seems to run on 3cyl.
Has spark to all 4. Has fuel to fuel rail. Timing is right.
I pull no.3 spark lead off and it doesn't change idle.

Just wondering where the logical place to look would be?

Cheers.

Have you tried changing the plug?
Is the injector firing?

Vacuum leaks are worth exploring for. I'm not familiar with the G16B but a vacuum leak can cause a single cylinder to misfire

Have swapped plugs around with no changing results
Not sure how to tell without pulling injectors out?
Will have a close look/test the vacuum hoses.

Thanks

Fuel filter, dirty tank
What fuel pump setup are you running ?

you should be able to check the injector pulse signal on the injector plug with a test light to see if all are pulsing

Hesitates and backfires. Still no number three.
Vac hoses look ok.
In tank pump (coily maybe). New fuel and filter.
All injectors are pulsing. Could there still be blockage?
I think compression test next?

Does it run a crank angle sensor in the front of the sump ?

Yes.

Backfiring normally means timing related not fuel, if the motor runs a crank sensor then this could be the issue, coilpacks normally break down and hesitate but no backfiring

depends if there is fuel getting to the exhaust unburned and then igniting

Not sure a crank angle sensor would isolate the problem to no.3 cyl?
Compression test is all good!
Guess I'll be pulling the injectors out. Is there any way to test on the bench? Or should i be taking them to a mechanic?

Cheers

Mine backfired and 'missed' like mad when the stems had died (leads, whatever) - At first it was just one of them, then suddenly it was un drive-able when the coil pack went and took out two cylinders.

While it's running, unplug each stem and see if there's one that makes no difference.. that'll help isolate it if it's them.

Move injector to another cylinder and see if the problem moves across.

Post subject:  Re: G16b runs shit

Well i pulled it all apart and then put it all back together and she's running on all 4!
New problem! Starts fine, idles high (2500rpm).
Once warm, it surges quite fast between 1500 and 1800rpm.
What problems have others experienced resulting in these symptoms?

Cheers

air in coolant lines to the throttle body.
Clean IAC valve

Id try find a complete throttle body to swap and iac

Post subject:  Re: G16b runs shit

its been sitting for a while so im betting on a sticky IAC

Author:  MrRocky [ Thu Aug 24, 2017 5:01 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: G16b runs shit

I never have much luck just cleaning the iac always seem to end up swapping the whole assembly over as a fix

Author:  Colin [ Thu Aug 24, 2017 5:03 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: G16b runs shit

Yay bit of wax and grease remover and paint brush iac and throttle valve and she purrs like a kitten!

Pull this off and use carby cleaner and toothbrush and clean throttle valve. There is also a little bypass valve that controls idle, clean this too!

Awesome thankyou my baleno motor looks abit different but I should be able to find that part aswell anyways

That’s just the TPS isn’t it?
IAC is under it with coolant lines attached?
