My 87 nissan pickup won't start when the weather get hot, starts every time in the winter. The starter does not kick in when the weather is hot???? Any Ideas?

I can start it by getting a little speed and poping the clutch. Once started it runs great.

SOURCE: 1995 Nissan PU wont start. Has battery, starter,

I just fixed my exact same problem. Everyone told me the starter was bad. I knew it had to be electrical because there was no noise when I tried to start the engine. Here's a good way to check to be sure your starter is not the problem. With your key removed from the ignition, the truck in neutral, and the parking brake applied, look under the hood and over the wheel well on the passenger side you'll see a long (about 6-8 inches) black box. This has a removable cover. Take it off and you'll see a bank or relays. First, swap out a relay from another spot on the relay block with the relay in the Clutch inhibit relay spot. The relay location should be marked on the top of the plastic cover. If your truck starts, then you know you have a bad relay. If it still doesn't start, remove the relay from the clutch inhibit socket. Next, take a piece of wiring, about 1 foot will do, and touch one end to the positive post on the battery and the other end of the wire to the socket. If you are looking down at the socket, you'll see 4 prong recepticles. The one to the right and closest to you should be the one you touch with the wire, if the engine doesn't crank, then try the other prong just above it. If the starter makes no effort to spin, then the starter is bad. If it does spin, then you have an open circuit somewhere between your battery to your clutch switch, ignition switch, back to your clutch relay. Rather than try to open harnesses and trace the wire, I just installed a push button and mounted it next to by fuse box below the steering wheel. A wire from the positive post to the button and back to the clutch relay socket took care of my problem.

My 88 gq Nissan patrol won't start. There's clicking but won't kick over

Sounds like what happens when your battery is too low to make the starter kick over. At least from my experience. Could be something more like bad connection between battery and the starter. To clean these you could dip the positive cable of battery connectors in a cup of fresh cola or any other soda or baking soda in dissolved in water to clean it and then on the positive site you possibly would want to get a battery post cleaner or wire brush to clean it. because you do not want any of the soda getting inside the battery or it will be useless. This would make the electrolyte in the battery to become neutral and cause you to have to buy a new battery. I hope this helps. Thanks, Cody

1992 nissan pickup, manual transmission, does not start, had new battery installed, had starter cheched ( it's good) what could be the problem for not turning over?

Ignition, ignition switch, bad ground, wiring from battery to starter. Will it push start?? Also try getting a test light and see if your even getting power and ground to the starter (pos cable at starter should be hot all the time) and grounded to the frame when bolted in.
