Try replacing the Idle Air control valve! I am having the same problem, and cannot find anyone who knows where it's located so I can take it off.
UPDATE: The Idle Air Control valve is located underneath the throttle body. Remove the throttle body, turn it over, and voila! There she is.
what would cause a nissan maxima to run slow or almost stop when it rains or snows and the distiributor is dry?
loose exhaust
Yes, it should since it is the same motor, chassis. Only thing that might cause a problem would be the transmission programming.
There are several things that can cause your 1993 Nissan 300 to idle rough. The most common cause is dirty spark plugs. Bad spark plug wires can also cause the problem.
It may be that your fuel pump has gone out.
In order to have complete combustion you need only a few things.-Spark-Fuel-Air-Compression-Correct TimingAny of these things could cause a misfire.A common problem with the 1992 Nissan Maxima is the fuel injectors. I would check the resistance on them and check the wiring harness.
I would like to know if you have to lift the engine up in order to change the sprokets on 2006 Nissan Maxima?
It will fit if the 2000 engine is a 3.0 L VQ30DE-K. They are almost identical engines
You should use the Nissan undiluted antifreeze for your Maxima. This would require two gallons of antifreeze to fill the reserve.?æ
A bad crankshaft sensor would stop the engine and not restart.
Low coolant, stuck thermostat, blown headgasket (from overheating BEFORE) or a damaged (rusted) water pump.
The maxima is a 3.0L while the altima is only a 2.4L. While the maxima only has 5-10 more horsepower, its extra cubic inches goes more twords torque. I would say maxima hands down. I personally have a 92 maxima, and it is not at all slow.
