Hi Newbie here

Hi Guys,

I have just bought my first S13 and been checking out this site and you all seem to know your stuff about these.

Just wanted to say hi and ask a quick couple of questions.

I picked up my 200 on saturday ran fine. Saturday night started playing up and mis-firing/ not boosting right. Then just ran on two cylinders then gave up.
Sunday took off the coils and spark plugs to check. The coils were working fine, the spark plugs where soaked in fuel and so where the chambers. I'm guessing that it had over fuelled blown out the spark plugs which is where the mis firing was coming from then then unburnt fuel stayed in there?
What could have caused this?
The not boosting properly, having looked on here i know that some BOV don't work, if it was not closing properly would this cause the boost to leak?

This is my first Nissan, 200 and first turbo car so i'm not too hot on the reasons.

Any help guys would be welcome.

Sorry for the long post

Hi and welcome. For info on probs with the car, if you post in the "technical" section, someone will answer. I had lots of useful advice from the guys and girls there.

welcome mate :wave: it could be a boost leak/the bov is not dumping right if it has a bov take it off and try it with it off and see if that makes a difference :thumbs:

Hello and welcome,:wave: most boost leaks are caused by leaking BOV's, bin it and then have WG chatter (much better) IMO :)
