First you have a couple of things mixed up. You have plenty of fuel flowing to the carb, but in the next sentence you mention fuel injectors. You can't have both!

First determine which -

With carb - rebuild carb for stuck float seat and make sure all the idle passages are open.

With fuel injection - check fuel pressure at the rails make sure around 60psi or so. I'm betting you don't have then replace the fuel pump which should be back by the tank.

SOURCE: 1987 Nissan Sentra diagram for fuel line routing

There are many online wiring diagram solutions, but the cheapest way to find your diagram is to purchase a haynes or chilton manual from the local auto parts store. Both have excellent wiring, fuel lines, brakelines, etc diagrams. I prefer the Haynes manual myself.

SOURCE: My Nissan Pickup is losing power

If you take the vehicle to a local shop, you can get a mechanic to do a compression check on each one of your cyllinders. This will tell you if your engine is holding pressure. If that checks out, it would have to be a fuel problem, (injectors, pump, filter, or clogged line) or maybe spend the couple bucks, and buy yourself a new MAF (mass airflow sensor) it may be the problem, but if not, it always helps to change.

Its BOTH, sort of....TBI Throttle Body Injection. If you look into the carb with engine running, you will see the injector spraying fuel onto the butterfly.

1994 v6 Nissan pickup dies at stop lights. won't idle.

Hello, first is it carburetor or fuel injected engine? When was the last time it was tuned up?
If carbureted engine then the carburetor will need to be rebuilt or replaced with a rebuilt carb.



If fuel injected engine. low fuel pressure, faulty fuel injectors, new air cleaner, throttle position sensor might need to be replaced, air flow sensor could be faulty, broken vacuum hoses, plug fuel filter, faulty fuel pump, new spark plugs, etc. All of these things need to be checked out.



You are probably not getting very good fuel mileage. Couple of things will be needed. rebuild carburetor, new filters, and a tune up. GB...stewbison

My 1991 Mazda mpv v6 3.0 cranks but won't start. I installed new Fuel lines, Fuel filter, Fuel pump. why won't it still start.

I assume you get fuel. But, does it get spark? If not then a coil may be bad, pickup coil if so equipped, or ignition coil if so equipped.

Good luck on this one.

1994 nissan truck seems to be sluggish.

Hello, I would first check your fuel and air filters first. I would also check and see if your spark plugs are fouled and I would do a general tune up to see if this corrects your issue. I would do a basic oil filter and oil change, spark plug and wires, fuel and air filters, and rotary cap and button. I would try to run some higher octane such as 89 and some fuel injector cleaner first and your air filter to see if this fixes your problem. Is this truck a manual by chance? If the vehicle is over 100,000 miles you may have a bad O2 sensor as well. Autozone offers free diagnostics of your system and this would pinpoint an electrical issue if you have one. I would check and see if your air filter is clogged or not first if it looks dirty this may be your problem. I hope this fixes your problem for you!

1986 nissan hardbody

Replace the fuel filter and poor a can of Sea Foam motor treatment in a full tank of gas. Sea Foam can be picked up at any part store for $5 to $8 a can. If it still has a problem you may need to replace the spark plugs.
