Car Forum / Nissan / Nissan Cars / February 200690 Nissan Fuel Problem I think?
My girlfriend has a 1990 Nissan 1600 SX, fuel injection. Most of the time when I go to get parts for it, the counter guy can never find the look up. But it's the upgrade from the Pulsar and usually has the same parts as the Sentra. Anyway to get to my problem, the car has run perfectly up till now. It starts fine and after a little warm up when I step on the accelerator it hesitates like it's going to stall, but once I get past that it runs fine. But when I have to stop and accelerate again it does the samething. I know lots about cars but I'm old school. With all the electronics these days it gets a little tough. Is this an electronic or a fuel delivery problem? Clogged filters, electronic componet or device, or computer setting? Thanks for any help or ideas evo  Signature"You can lead them to LINUX but you can't make them THINK" I had a similar problem with a 1998 Altima. It turned out that there was a leak in the venting from the gas tank. The tank must be sealed. I can get the same effect if I leave the gas cap loose.

Sounds to easy, but I will check it out. Thanks for the advice! RV Signature"You can lead them to LINUX but you can't make them THINK" > I had a similar problem with a 1998 Altima.

This morning I went out and checked the cap and normally when you open it you will hear air rushing in, I didn't hear it today. I tighten the cap and the car ran fine. thanks again, RV Signature"You can lead them to LINUX but you can't make them THINK" You are lucky that it is not a leak in the venting system. On some of the car models, if you leave the fuel cap loose, the "Service Engine Soon" lamp will come on. The biggest cause is a loose fuel cap.
