injectors

[AZN MK3]

ok this might be a really dumb question, but i was wondering if there was any way you can tell if you have stock injectors in your 1j or not... the reason being is because im having a problem where when i mash my foot on the gas pedal it seems to hesitate in higher rpms. BUT when i gradually increase on the throttle it doesnt do that. im guessing its a fuel issue... i havent changed out my fuel pump yet, im guessing that could be a reason too. and my car was originally N/A (7mge) so maybe the stock fuel pump isnt flowing the fuel fast enough to the engine at higher rpms... could that be right?? i just dont know.. i mean the car runs fine as long as you dont step on the throttle right on, and just gradually increase on it then you feel the pull really good... but other than that im really satisfied at what this engine can do...Mods are pretty basic...custom 3" exhaust, 21x12x3 ic, 2.5" ic pipping, boost controller, and a greddy bov...

so you used to have an NA 1j?

OH no i mean i kept the old 7mge fuel pump... im sorry...maybe i should change that...

 

[PROJECT N00b]

ah ok.

Stock injectors will be yellow on top, that's the easiest way to tell.

It's probably a mis-adjusted TPS though.

you need to change the fuel pump it could be detonation, or premature firing of the piston.

but i never touched the tps... so would that still be a probable cause???

how will you know if you have premature firing of you pistons? like are there any signs i look for to tell or since i havent been driving it for a while since then will i not see any signs???

I'd suggest getting an upgraded fuel pump. But, as mentioned, the 1jz injectors have a yellow top. I'm using the stock injectors on mine with the stock 7mgte fuel pump without any issues.

well does the 7mgte fuel pump flow out more fuel out than the 7mge??? and if so... couldnt i go with the 7mgte fuel pump??? well then again an upgraded fuel pump from driftmotion isnt all that expensive so i guess i'll go get one..

 

[AF1JZ]

I'd just get a walbro 255lph. The 7mgte will be good. But, if you are buying one anyway, you might as well get the best. Only reason I haven't got a walbro yet is because I'm too lazy to change it out. The 7mgte is fine for me right now.

oh ok thats kool... i guess there was differences in fuel pumps... well meaning the n/a and the turbod fuel pump... well thanks man, and the rest of you guys...

 

[AZN MK3]

ok guys this is what i found out... the fuel filter and fuel pump is the same... MEANING SAME PART #'s.... the 7mge and the 7mgte has the same part #'s for both the fuel filter and fuel pump... now my problem is why my car is hesitating really bad when i push my car... Well a friend of mine said it could be my fuel filter because my car has been sitting at home for quite a while before i dropped in the 1jz engine... now could that be a reason why my car could be acting the way it is??? i mean since its been sittin' for a while the fuel pump and filter just crapped out on me!!! could that be true??? just kind of frustrated right now because its the only thing thats wrong with my car... so i just hope i can get it fix... so anyone there please shine some light... thanks

It's entirely possible. I've seen more than a few fuel pumps stop working from extended dry periods, including 2 in my Supra.

oh really well what about the fuel filter???

 

[annoyingrob]

not from sitting, but the do get clogged over time.

 

[foreverpsycotic]

What plugs are you using and have you checked your timing?

well that sucks... i hope it'll be ok

im using ngk's off of the mr2 turbo and my timing is set right at 0... like it responds very well it just hesitates towards higher rpms and it feels as if its fuel...

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

Did you mention any pops?

Mine hesitated up high because the coilpacks were cracked on the boots.

 

[BlackMKIII]

From my conversation with Bigaaron, the stock 7M-GE fuel pump is too weak for the 1JZ. That's why he's changing it with a Walbro 255 while the car is still there.

What Kyle said is likely as well. It's not to hard to pull off the coil packs and check them.
