I had the same problem with my 2000 GXE...it just died suddenly..I used a hand held scanner and it turned out to be a camshaft position sensor about $ 80.00.It's very easy to replace,it's located on the front cylinder head. Looking at cylinder head (near the radiator)follow the camshaft location (with your eyes) towards the left,you will notice it on the side ,it only has one bolt and one wire plug. very simple fix. I hope that this is your problem. Good luck. jal1948@aol.com
what would cause a nissan maxima to run slow or almost stop when it rains or snows and the distiributor is dry?
loose exhaust
Overheating
Yes, it should since it is the same motor, chassis. Only thing that might cause a problem would be the transmission programming.
It may be that your fuel pump has gone out.
Intermittant short?
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.
It will fit if the 2000 engine is a 3.0 L VQ30DE-K. They are almost identical engines
I would like to know if you have to lift the engine up in order to change the sprokets on 2006 Nissan Maxima?
You should use the Nissan undiluted antifreeze for your Maxima. This would require two gallons of antifreeze to fill the reserve.?æ
Low coolant, stuck thermostat, blown headgasket (from overheating BEFORE) or a damaged (rusted) water pump.
A bad crankshaft sensor would stop the engine and not restart.
