nurrish Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 On the way home tonight my car suddenly lost all power and and was spluttering at 2.5k revs..... I turned off the ignition and started and seemed ok....But closer to home i gave it some beans up to 4k and then it lost all power again.......It was cleaned today so im not sure if some water has got in somewhere making it act up...... Any ideas??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3FIDDYZ Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Done an ECU reset? Any warning lights? Did the dash light up? Is it running ok now when you turn it over or still not letting you give it full beens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurrish Posted October 2, 2009 Author Share Posted October 2, 2009 Well Looked in my maf sensor housing and found water in there. I have left this to dry out so hopefully all should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurrish Posted October 2, 2009 Author Share Posted October 2, 2009 No lights on the dash. I just think the cleaner has been a bit spray happy with his water hose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3FIDDYZ Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 hmmm... hope it is.. will need a reset.. perhaps a bag over the intake may be required in the future esp when using a jet wash! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zxtreme Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Just to clear this up for any future searches on this subject - the 2.5k rpm limit is a standard Nissan failsafe if the ECU detects an error or out of range value from the MAF sensor. It then ignores the MAF signal and does its best to calculate load from the TPS value but restricts RPM to protect the engine. Be carefull getting water on your MAF - they don't like it too much...
