A 98 nissan altima i replaced blown head gasket

Yep, I would use the same camshafts. The engine you used if from a 96. It is a different engine, but if everything is sealed up and mates up ok, then it should work.

That's hard to say without a little more detailed information ! Was the check engine light on ? If so what codes ? There are a lot of reasons for not passing a emission test ! The engine management system is very complex an has several sensors that input voltage info to the engine computer, which in turn controls out put devices . injectors ,purge solenoid , shift solenoids , idle control etc.. No I could say with the information you supplied ! PA EMISSIONS WAIVER

My air conditioner stopped working today 98 Nissan Altima

most likely you had a leak you can first try the DIY way by going to the store and buying a refill kit w/ a can or 2 of R134a to see if it'll kick on after you add a can... or pay $$$ to a shop to diagnose where it's leaking and give you parts/labor to replace it

1998 nissan altama starts stalling after stopping and turning right

Hi , the ultima has a internal fuel pump. it is possible that the pump filter has been blocked. otherwise it can be a loose connection on the management system. first bet would be to check the electrical under the hood especially anything connected to the fuel system, the turn could cause the connection to fail.

The sun visor will not stay up on my 1998 nisson altama

Most of the sin visors has a small screw near to the fixed hinge. that is to tighten up the tension to flip it open and closed. another thing to do is tightening up the grip of the clip by adding some insulation tape to the inside. a quick fix

1998 Nissan altima whining sounds like power steering does when it is low but it is full and steers fine does not get louder when you turn the wheel but does get louder when you rev it up later I noti

Sounds more like a bearing in the pump going bad. But change the belt first since it needs it anyway. Then you'll know for sure.

Why is my 1998 nissan altima keep shutting off at stop light?

Does it lunge forward a couple times when stopping? (Acts like a standard that the clutch wasn't pushed in while trying to stop). If so There is a solenoid inside the transmission that may cause this. If not second guess may be that you have a vacuum leak somewhere. Does your engine run rough? Or High idle?

Why does my high beam only works on right side1998 nissan altima

If the fuse blows violently (i.e its pretty black inside the fuse as opposed to just the fuse link being melted) then its a dead short to ground. Follow the hot wire from the switch to the light, someplace its contacting metal and shorting out.

How to check 1998 nisisan Altima a/c belts

Be aware the A/C belt is more than likely the Serpentine Belt for your Altima. This belt powers multiple functions of the car including the Alternator, Idler, Power Steering, etc. as well as the Air Conditioning Compressor. Attached is an image for what the A/C compressor on your car should look like, as well as a diagram of the belt and pulleys. (Ignore the RED arrows in the diagram) You will know the belt should be replaced if you can see 3 or more visible little cracks/frays within a one-inch segment. Any one crack that penetrates nearly halfway through the belt is also considered high risk. Also when a serpentine belt begins to go bad, people tend to hear a squeeking or squealing noise when they car starts up. I once had a mechanic tell me to keep an eye on my belt, and that it was looking sort of worn but nothing too terribly bad. I decided after i made the drive home for the holidays I would have it replaced. I did not make it more than 15 miles from the shop before it snapped, threw out my alternator which was not cheap to have replaced, and got stranded for over an hour. If you're questioning the condition of your belts, its best to play it safe! 54d5bffa-ec22-4b03-a1ff-f629b49b02e9.jpg 58f26d76-8bfb-4280-97da-4715bcb08879.png
