The Idle Air Control Valve (IACV) may need cleaning or replacement.

This valve lets air bypass the throttle plate so that the engine can idle. The more air, the faster the idle. If this valve is sticky, the computer may have a hard time regulating the idle properly and may surge.

SOURCE: 1983 280z fuel injected starts

You will need to adjust the timing by rotating the distributor and using a timing light gun. The correct timing for the 1983 Datsun/Nissan is set at 8 degrees for both the manual and automatic transmissions (non turbo)

The correct spark plug gap is: 044 (In thousandths of an inch)

Firing order is: 1-5-3-6-2-4 ------------- front | | of | 1 2 3 4 5 6 | the distributor rotates counter clockwise

Also make sure your fuel filter is clean and your plug wires are good

If you have the turbo model, the correct timing is set at 24 degrees for both manual and automatic transmissions)

Note :
Before top dead center
*Set at warm idle speed (650 RPM)
*Distributor vacuum hose disconnected & plugged
*Transmission in drive (parking brake engaged)

I have a 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer ES 2.0L that has a problem starting. Battery is fine & if you push start it it'll start 4-5 times with the key then not start. Replaced starter and the problem remains

When you start the Lancer, does it actually turn over and start? Or does it sputter while you're pressing the start button?

This is what I would start with. First, I'd find your fuel regulator and follow the vacuum line that leads to the engine - then unplug that. Find some extra tubing or rag that you can replace that plug with to keep it sealed. Then, if you're car starts running, you'll know its just a bad regulator.

If that doesnt work, the second thing I'd try is pulling off the air-intake and spray some brake cleaner in there to see if it will start. If that works, then you have a fuel leak or clog somewhere thats preventing your fuel from reaching the sparkplugs.

Hope this helps-

Front right side hit . replaced concerter and won't crank over /or start fuel pump doesn'd even come on when key is on ?

ricks63toy, I believe that Ford still uses what is called an inertia switch even in the hybrids. This switch will shut off in the event of an accident shutting off the fuel pump. This is a safety feature built into the vehicle. Seeing that this is a newer vehicle I trust that you still have the manual. If not, the switches are usually located in the trunk. Look on the side walls of the trunk and see if you can locate it. It is usually marked by a sticker. When you find the switch, push the red button down until you hear a click. This will reset the switch and allow power back to your fuel pump. Good luck with this.

Lancer cut out while driving. will turn over but will not start. it has fuel but no spark.

check mass air flow sensor or crank sensor. If those are not working then the car won't run. is there a check engine light on or a battery light on? obtain an obd2 scanner from an auto parts store and download the code. that will usually tell you everything you need to know. also, check to make sure youre actually getting fuel to the engine. you might have a weak fuel pump. prime the fuel pump a few times before trying to start the car by turning/cycling the key from off to on, not start*, in 2 second intervals a few times then try to start the car. you might be able to hear the pump running under the back seat.

hope this helps!

2001 chevy k1500

THE FUEL PUMP IS LOCATED IN THE FUEL TANK. IF IT IS WORKING YOU WILL BE ABLE TO HEAR IT SQUEALING WHEN THE KEY IS TURNED TO THE RUN POSITION PRIOR TO ACTUALLY STARTING THE VEHICLE. IT WILL BE A HIGH PITCH. IF NOT THEN THAT WOULD BE A STARTING POINT. ALSO FUEL INJECTED CARS HAVE A COLD START ENRICHMENT VALVE THAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM. THIS VALVE CAUSES A MOMENTARY FUEL RICH SITUATION SO THE ENGINE CAN START. IT IS BASICALLY A CHOKE FOR FUEL INJECTED ENGINES.
