This GP5 came to our workshop and seem to have a issue with idle and sometime while running it suddenly feels a loss of power and stops. Then when you try to crank but it will not start then when you fully turn off the system and then restart it starts fine and moves. The car has done over 100k and haven;t touched. We did a general EFI cleaning and hoped it would clear out. No engine codes were given. After the EFI cleanup the car ran fine for sometime but after about two days same thing started. My guess is may be the ignition coils kind a give up when they heat. (Not sure, just a suggestion) . If you guys have any idea appreciate sharing it with us.
Restoring a 90's Diesel.
Gentlemen, What are your thoughts on doing a soft-resto on an unhacked Nissan SB14 that has been sitting around for 8 years?
1997 car registered in 2000. Manual gears, 2L CD20 diesel. Single owner -Decased. Family who are known to me - dont use it. Unhacked body and almost pristine interior. Clean body lines, no accidents. Complete car and appears untouched by makabasses. Engine shows signs of under-compression, brakes and clutch-plate need replacing, tyres are on the brink of decomposing. Power mirrors do not work. Needs a paint job. No major corrosion but early-stage rust spots on the boot lid.
