I have just purchased a evo 2 gsr running link g4+. The car stalls itself if you don't keep the revs high. When driving its fine but soon as I slow down for example to go over a hump it stalls. Have to keep the revs really high so it doesn't. Spoke to the old owner, he said the issue started...
The bearing plate where the detents go into, the 3/4 hole had been messed with (seems like with a screwdriver) and the ball bearing would get stuck. So we used a sandpaper with dremel and smoothed it out and it works as it should now. Everything else is in gearbox was perfectly fine
Bit of a late one but finally found the issue. Removed the box and disassembled it to find the 3/4 detent ball was stuck, not allowing me to shift into the gears🤦♂️
Issue RESOLVED!! After months of trying to sort the car, I dropped it off to my mate who solved it in 10 minutes. The issue was in the tune, Ign angle on the map @ idle was -8
It was idling yes but was still not running too good. Sat in my garage for a while now it's having trouble starting. I'm going to double check the timing again and go from there
I've been having some trouble with getting my evo 2 to start.It's a built motor with k20 coil on plug and play kit. It sometimes starts but sounds very rough and like a miss fire, but now it doesn't start at all. Every time I would crank it would backfire through the exhaust and Intake...
As I mentioned above, once I remove the shifter cables from the trans side, the gears work fine by hand. Soon as they're on 3rd and 4th don't go in. To me I think its the cables that's the issue. Can't think of anything else, will get new cables and see what happens
Everything looks fine and feels solid. I remove the cables, put it into 3rd or 4th then put the cables back on and once I throw it into neutral, with the shifter it won't allow me to go back into 3rd or 4th but soon as cables are off again it works by hand. So my only guess is stretched or worn...
Got some good news! Removed the cables from transmission side and went through the gears manually and they all work perfectly fine! So my guess is stretched shifter cables
This is exactly what I've been told by a few people. I think this is the first thing I will do. Thank you very much for the write up, I will check everything you have mentioned before removing the box. Worse case scenario the box will have to be removed. Thank you again
