Hesitation on throttle when warm, negative LTFT (datalogs and vids)
Howdy,
I'm going to try and be detailed about this to try and make it informative and maybe make it useful to those getting the same symptoms. I know there are a few threads covering similar symptoms but I'll try and detail new ground if I can. Any insights on things I'm missing or overlooking would be appreciated. Relevant information: -2013 BRZ, 84000km, MT -Injen Intake (earlier)/stock intake (now) -PLM UL headers -PLM overpipe -Invidia front pipe -Invidia N1 -OFT Bought in January this year, this was the cheapest BRZ/FRS available near me at the time. It was a rebuilt title due to front end collision and came with the modifications listed above. I purchased this as a project and to use primarily as a track car with occasional Sunday driving (my GTI is a bone stock and very comfortable daily driver). I have only started driving/troubleshooting this past month. The problem: From the first test drive, there was a hesitation on throttle most noticable from idle. Recently I have also determined that it something that gets worse as the car warms up. When cold, if you rev the engine the response is snappy, as it should be. When the car is warm it takes a second for the revs to pick up at all, even though the throttle body is opening up. The sound is similar to if you were to make a revving sound with your mouth but took a sharp inhale first. It also shows up when shifting, but is not as noticable. Here are a couple of crappy videos that may not provide any insight. Response from idle when cold Response from idle when warm I started looking into this problem and found the following resources on this forum (no shortage of good information here!): High negative STFT and LTFT https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=127265 High Negative LTFT on N/A BRZ causing idling issues https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=106123 High negative LTFT OFT Stg1 tune https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=129889 Throttle Delay Fix. https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=115282 MAF Scaling - Open/Closed Loop Fueling info https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=64790 OFT - Guide To Dialling In Your OTS Base Tune https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=94822 Diagnosis: After having done some reading I flashed the car with Stg-2-Plus-v4.03 OFT tune and proceeded to drive 3-400km. I started taking data logs to see if I could identify anything that stood out from a "healthy" data log (from Wayno's guide above). A full throttle pull showed nothing seriously wrong but at idle or coasting off throttle the LTFT would sit around -25%. By my observation it seems like in low load or low rpm situations, there isn't proper combustion due to either insufficient spark, unatomized fuel mixture or sensors (MAF/O2) giving improper readings to the ECU. Early log: https://datazap.me/u/grant-runion/lo...zoom=2132-3518 Steps taken so far: -Clean MAF -Rescale MAF (100km driven on rescale flash) -Return to a stock air intake (back on standard MAF scaled v4.03 tune) -Replaced all 4 coils from a part out -Injector cleaner (0km since putting it in) Areas I can think of to try next: -Clean throttle body -Spark plugs (only checked one so far, looked fine) -Clean injectors -Try new MAF -Try new O2 sensor (front I believe?) Latest log: https://datazap.me/u/grant-runion/40...d?log=0&data=1 Again, any insights or new direction is appreciated.

The tables look good, I don't see anything out of the ordinary. It could possibly be an intake leak, recheck all the intake piping, pcv, sound tube generator, the ltft spike while at idle, if anything try swapping the 02 sensor first. Last edited by Project_1796; 05-17-2021 at 12:11 AM. |

Thanks for the double check. The O2 sensor might make sense, as when the car is warming up I believe it is running in open loop, therefore not relying on feedback from the O2, which could be incorrect. I'll try that avenue and follow up with results.

YOu know in romraider the table MAF compensation (IAT) ?
that 's shitty from the factory I saw the best approch of it in Wayne's tune Stock vs modified: Try this, then re scale the maf again and fix the open loop fueling , this table is powerfull and will mess with your existing fueling |

So if I understand, update the IAT table with the values above, datalog, then rescale the MAF. When you say "fix the open loop fueling", do you mean adjust the open loop fueling tables?

I just mean that, if you rescaled the maf already, you ll have to rescale it fully because it will modify the fueling
So yes, try to mod it and rescale from scatch |

I have been sitting at -15% on my LTFT at idle, too. This is the richest it has been. Not issues mechanically. My local shop is retuning it next week, so hopefully that fixes it (current tune is Delicious e-tune)
In for any responses!

Gotcha, thanks for the clarification.

So I installed the new O2 sensor yesterday and took it for a short drive. Regrettably it wasn't a magic bullet and the problem remains the same. Not that it is helpful, here is a new data log, the only difference is more time on the tune and the O2 sensor replacement. Next up I am going to revisit MAF scaling, this time with the stock air intake, as last time I was still trying to get the Injen intake to work. Failing that I will try the IAT remapping.

I checked out that .bin but it looks like it is the same one as I had on my tune already. Regardless, I did manually put in the values as shown in tomm.brz's post and flashed again. I have only had one drive on the tune so haven't been able to log for MAF rescaling, so that is up next. No noticeable change with the IAT rescale but I hadn't expected that right off the bat.
As a side note, previous to the IAT rescale, I did logs on Friday morning and afternoon on my way to and from work and it was interesting to see the difference that air intake temperature has on LTFT. In the warmer temps in the afternoon the LTFT was only around -11 at idle/off throttle and even in the positives at normal speeds. I don't know if there is anything to glean from this, but I didn't expect it when I looked at it. Friday Morning https://datazap.me/u/grant-runion/21...g=0&data=1-5-9 https://datazap.me/u/grant-runion/21...g=0&data=1-5-9 Friday Afternoon https://datazap.me/u/grant-runion/21...g=0&data=1-5-9 https://datazap.me/u/grant-runion/21...g=0&data=1-5-9

Been a while since I have been able to work on the car but finally have some kms on the tune. I flashed with the MAF sensor rescale and put on about 140km. The hesitation is still there regrettably. I'm trying to gleen something from the datalog but I'm at a loss as to what to make of it. Specifically, at idle it looks like the LTFT is starts high negative then slowly comes closer to 0, while the STFT bounces like a yo-yo. The STFT creeps up, then falls back to a low value, creeps up, falls back to a low value. Is this normal? Any suggestions on where to go next?
