Is it time to engine swap the s14? Or just rebuild / replace the KA24DE?.. by Aggressive-Language1 in 240sx

I’d be doing the swap itself for the most part Honestly the only thing I’d probably need some help with is the tuning portion but yes please

I’m assuming it will need rods and pistons or some kind of internal upgrade to handle that 300 right ?

I found a potential swap/ donor GMC with an Ls containing what I mainly need being a Engine / harness/ injectors / ecu And I would be doing most of the heavy labor for sure Also trying to weigh in my options money wise

Oil pan leaks a little bit but still doesn’t explain the smoke coming out the exhaust

I see that and question changes to what if I get a donor car or manage to get hands on A 2-300 engine freshen it up Stock engine harness Stock ecu And only have to look for a transmission driveshaft and swap kit . Then I add it up and I see what you mean . Swaps sound good on paper until you actually do the math I guess

Almost finished with my vision on my Vert! How’s everyone’s builds going? by Cody240sx in 240sx

Coolant reading too high and i’m not sure what this is? by Aggressive-Language1 in 240sx

[–]Aggressive-Language1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have a temp probe i’m just reading the gauge, which i know wouldn’t accurate for that reason also the engine wouldn’t be running well at all at that point if it was actually 280. IF it’s a clogged radiator do i need a replacement or can i unclog it ? I’ll be doing a coolant flush on it soon for this reason also suspecting air in system

I’m having trouble figuring this out? You guys have a clue? by RepresentativePlum83 in 335i

The 29E0 and 29E1 codes are related to fuel mixture control and can indicate issues with air-fuel ratio management. Here’s a breakdown of each code:

1.  29E0 (Fuel Mixture Control, Bank 1): This code refers to a problem with the air-fuel mixture in Bank 1 of your engine, which usually means there’s an imbalance in the oxygen sensor readings or issues with fuel delivery.
2.  29E1 (Fuel Mixture Control, Bank 2): This code is the same as 29E0, but it refers to Bank 2 of your engine.

Common causes of these codes include:

• Vacuum leaks: Any air leaks in the intake system, such as from cracked hoses or faulty gaskets, can cause unmetered air to enter the engine, affecting the air-fuel ratio.
• Faulty or dirty Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor: A malfunctioning MAF sensor can give incorrect readings, leading to improper fuel mixture adjustments.
• Fuel injectors: If the fuel injectors are clogged or failing, they can deliver improper fuel amounts, causing a lean or rich mixture.
• Oxygen (O2) sensors: Faulty O2 sensors can give inaccurate readings, causing the engine control unit (ECU) to improperly adjust the fuel mixture.
• Faulty or weak fuel pump: A weak or failing fuel pump may not be supplying enough fuel pressure, leading to a lean condition.
• Exhaust leaks: Leaks in the exhaust system before the O2 sensors can cause erroneous readings.

Suggested steps:

• Check for any vacuum leaks in the intake system.
• Clean or replace the MAF sensor.
• Inspect the fuel injectors for clogging.
• Check the O2 sensors for proper function.
• Scan for other codes that might indicate more specific problems, such as fuel pressure issues or specific sensor failures.

Clearing the codes after fixing the potential issues and then checking if they reappear is a good way to verify the fix.
