Car Having problems running in morning.
Yes I have a Check Engine Light but haven't had it checked cause its OBD1 and cost to check it. Well anyways the guy sold it to me said when the motor is cold u have to rev it up untill its warm or it will just turn off. i noticed when it was hot outside it only sometimes idles at like 200 RPMS and then other times idles perfect most the times. pretty much when its warm outside it starts right up and idles low.


Well little bit ago i went to start it when it was cold beginning of today it took a while to start and then it turned right back off. i started it again and took a long time and then finnally turned on and smelt like pure gas. i held the gas pedle at a 1500 RPM Idle and it would strugle to hold that RPM. i would floor it for a second and it races up but at low rpms it just wants to die untill like 3 minutes of idleing it at 1500RPMs.

Its a 95 Maxima 3.0L. has new oil and new spark plugs and wires. just put fuel injector cleaner in BG last week.

Typo?

All 4th gen maximas are OBDII IIRC.

I thought only 96's and up were OBD2? So your saying my 95 Maxima is OBD2?

if you spent more than 15 minutes reading the stickies you would know that.

When I had a very similar problem just recently, it was a combo of my FPR and then later my CPS (POS). (crankshaft position sensor, rear)
