Okay all ya'll car buffs, I have a major problem with this 1997 Nissan Pickup.?

Question

Okay, this has been going on for a little while now. We took it to the Nissan place to get it fixed, but they didn't do anything but clean some sensors and fix a wire. So here's the deal. It is bucking like crazy after it warms up. We already replaced the distributor and cam sensor. Not always at the same time, but codes 0110, 0340 and GM code 1336 have been spitting out. After a while, it just gives up and has no spark until it cools down. What's the relationship between the cam sensor and the computer as well as the relationship between the mass airflow sensor and cam sensor? If anyone knows what's going on, please help me.

Answer 1

If it's dying when it warms up and starts after it cools back down it's a very good bet that you have a bad coil. No spark when it gets warm...right. Bad coil. I'd replace that...if it's just a standard coil, you can just get any one out of the junk yard. If it's the GM style that mounts on top of the ignition module, they aren't too expensive. I think around 40 bucks each. May also be the ignition module, but this symptom points straight to the coil. Good luck.

Answer 2

either crank shaft posisioning sensor with will cause that and also you ignision crontrol modual with will cause that they fall under the spark lines of things and what happens on those 2 things i listed they will heat up and then will shut down once they cool down the car will start right back up until it gets hot again you can have these parts tested at your local auto parts store i fixed a chevy lumina today with the same problem and it was the crank shaft posinioning sensor i would look at your map sensor too

Answer 3

has anyone checked the coil when you have no spark? cam sensor on most cars get the #1 fuel injector squirting in time with the #1 cylinder
