when it idled for 3 secs was it normal or or rough?

If there is no spark from the coil perhaps try a different coil?

also try replacing the CAS itself... its a 5 min job

it idled rough sometimes but most of the time smooth, we have tried 3complete dizzys tht worked, but still the same problem and have tried 2 AFM;s

try checking your fuel pressure maybe its an electrical issue with the fuel pump? Failing that i would have a good look at the 12v plug to the coil, the power transistor plug and the 4 wire cas plug, overtime with the weight of the wire hanging off the plug the contacts bend and cause a crappy connection, when the car heats up the wires soften and bend a bit more causing the car to stall, this is happened to me it was my 12v coil plug.

check the AFM piping, had the same problem, one plastic bit had come undone... causing HEAPS of problems!!!!

The annoying thing is that it is such a broad problem...the only way to find the problem is elimination, it could be anything really. Do some diagnostics. Is the fuel pump priming? Have you checked your fuel pressure? Have you tried a ecu? it is a long shot but very easy to test another one. Have to ask questions like what does it seem like the problem is? ie is it starving of fuel, running to rich, lack of spark, timing of spark. Also something similar happened to me. Check all your wiring at the back of the firewall. Mine shorted out causing my PT, CAS and fuseable link to all sh1t themselves.

update have now tried 3 ecu's, all wriring looks ok, 2 AFM'S new CAS clip and wiring checked for holes in air snorkel thing. Im now thinking PT only thing tht hasnt been tried i think,

have u changed the actual CAS....?

he has tried multiple complete dizzys patches, doing the whole dizzy is obviously easier than changing the cas its self. all were in unknown condition though, we spoke to a guy today who gave us a couple of new things to try though.

fuel in the fuel tank then...

well i can say nothing else than.... maatouks

lol stfu patch. we were actually talking about maatouks. but we would rather save ourselves the half a million dollar bill. we will take our cars there when they are turbo lol

maatouks is cheap... give him a call... and he'll give u a quote...

had this prop exactly about 4 days ago got it goin after hours ****in with everything.. it was a little wire running to the positive on the battery.. it read fine thru the multi-meter but i put a new wire in and started first time no probs revd fine drives fine.. get a wire and have a play with some of the wires might be same prob as wat i had

UPDATE: put ANOTHER dizzy in this is number 3 and the car started amd idle, but now its over fueling heaps even with the standard reg, any suggestions

Could be a busted fuel pressure regulator , happened to me many years ago in my first VL, turned out that the cylinders were filling up with fuel but the engine wouldn't even crank over. The fuel was coming back through the vacuum line on the pressure regulator as the diaphragm was busted.

UPDATE: Car is now on the road, Tried another afm and the car idle'd fine, then we found out that my fuel pressure reg was stuffed so we put on an aftermarket one tht was laying around the house and it works again, shes just needs a good tune n it will be all sweet again thanks to all the guys whu have helped me try and sort it out, and a special thanks to justin lol cheers mate Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
