Auto to Manual swap - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I've tried searching the forum, going in and out of every thread that has to do with the auto to manual conversion and have yet to find a solution to my problem.

I just picked up an s14 that has an auto-manual conversion and for some reason the ignition is kinda finiky.

Whenever I try to start the vehicle in just about every running condition (morning/evenings cold and warm starts) it takes a few tries to get it going.

Picture this situation.. you're in a manual car and you go to crank the ignition without pressing on the clutch pedal

Its not an issue with the charging system.. It's pretty upsurd how sometimes it starts up in 1 try and sometimes 6+

If anyone experienced has any ideas or questions lmk, thanks in advance.
