92 nissan sentra Stalls while idling

I will go for a drive (long or short) then have a short break before starting again (30 min) when I start my car, it stalls while idling. The only way to keep it from stalling is to give it some gas everytime I have to stop. It has only done it one time before, but this last time, it started stalling even from my pushing in the clutch before coming to a stop.

    i have the same exact problem with stalling after the car is warmed up. I have cleaned the IACV and throttle body, replaced the cap, rotor, thermostat, fuel filter, alternator, water temp sensor to the computer, and tghe head gasket. The timing is dead on with a timing light, and the car has great power without breaking up, But idle is rought at 700rpm and stalls everytime when the car is warm.

I had this kind of problem on my car a couple of times. It can either be the idle control valve or overheating. you can clean the idle control valve or replace it. the one for my car was like $140 at the dealership.

Nissan Sentra random stalls and wont start hot

Check out the catalytic converter, might be plugged up. I have seen some cars that will run fine, and like someone threw a switch the car acted like yours, no power, would not rev and died. Later when cold they would be OK for a while then just get worse and worse.

My 1992 Nissan Maxima is sputtering upon acceleration. It has 220,000 miles on it and it seems to mainly have this problem in first gear. And mostly happens shortly after starting the car. Ive done a basic...

92 max
I own a 92 max 370 kms runs good but one day just cuts out while doing about 30 km, I pull over i can start it no problem but when I touch the pedal to accelerate the car stalls out.

It got worse to the point of sputtering on the highway , sometimes i could keep it alive by working the pedal but others would slow down and stall out.

I have changed the fuel filter and plugs seemed to make it a bit better but still stalling. I ran it in my driveway for 10 mins on idle then it stalls out

Is this the fuel pump??

1990 Honda Prelude won't start after I stop or konks out during

Sounds like it could be a Main Relay (with controls the fuel pump & others). Look it up - on the '92 models its under the dash near the steering column.
