My 1994 sentra dies at a traffic light afte i

My 1994 sentra dies at a traffic light after I stop. It also hardly has any pick up when taking off but it starts to really kick in when the RPM's start to build. then last night it chugged and died when backing out of the driveway. now it won't start. I replaced the fuel filter and added some fuel anti freeze as I live in a cold northen climate. At this point I'm thinking fuel pump, what so you think?

I think you should check fuel pressure before buying the expensive fuel pump,also inspect spark plugs how long have you had the car did you ever replace them?

1994 oldsmobile died while idling at traffic light. No power from battery to restart. Pushed car off road and got a jump. Car started and idled but died as soon as I put it into drive. Car had no power...

Take a battery that has a good charge on it or 12 volts put it in and start it then take a multimeter and put the red lead on to the power lead on the back of the alternator and ground the black lead.It should read between 13-14.5 volts anything more or less replace alternator.If alternator checks out ok check battery voltage after charging it.Must have at least 12-12.6 volts anything less replace battery.

Your alternator is dead/dying. Nissan puts both of those lights on to tell you that the alternator isn't charging your battery.

1987 Nissan Sentra Wont Start (died after going through a puddle)

the EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) valves like to stick on these cars, they get fouled up with carbon and if they get stuck open, the car will not want to idle well and even stall out. they are vacumn operated and can usually be cleaned with some carb cleaner and small picks. before you clean it, try moving the diaphram up with your fingers and see if it comes back down. this will tell you if its stuck. the EGR manifold port can also become clogged solid and requires removal for cleaning.

First check for holes or disconnected air inlet hoses, that will give the sensor/meter a problem so it cannot send the correct signal.
