I am about to lose my mind with this car. i have a 92 nissan sentra. My car spits and sputters on acceleration and loses power going up hills ect. i have changed the spark plugs and wires,fuel filter,dizzy cap,rotor button ect, and still the same problem. i am beginning to think its the timing chain. i have 2 cylinders that are not firing right, Mind you im a single female and no absolutely nothing about cars except what i research on here. can anyone help please. aprilhannaford@gmail.com
Any abnormal noise coming from the engine needs to be investigated dealt with before it causes you extra problems and expense. If you have a worn and sloppy timing chain it will effect your valve timing and ignition timing and can possibly skip a tooth and then run really roughly so that could be your problem. But you say you have two cylinders not firing right, with the timing chain they would all be bad so it could be something else. With the engine idling take off one plug lead at a time and note the change in engine sound. If no change this is a the bad cylinder. If the two bad cylinders are adjacent you may have a blown head gasket (look for a milky residue in the oil, foaming in the radiator and overheating). Once you have tried this report back with your results and you can get more help.

I have a noise at the timing chain on my 1992 Sentra 1600, believed to be caused by worn sprocket teeth and chain. I need a manual to show the cams timing setting and head bolts torque after overalling the head.
