my Nissan elgrand just cut out when I was driving it now it wont start can you help me
Check the ignition coil on the Cheyenne. If it is ok, check the timing. The timing chain could have slipped or broken causing the engine to not start.
It's broken!
slow to start from cold and starts when warm
Make sure connections are on tight.
because its not a Primera
One way to tell if the timing chain is broken on your Nissan Altima is to see if it will start. If it starts, it is not the timing chain. You can also remove the distributor cap, have someone step on the gas while you watch the engine. If the rotor moves, it is not the timing chain.
Yes, a broken chain or chain that is worn so bad it has jumped a tooth or 2 can cause the vehicle not to start.
No, a food chain has to start with a producer.
compression? bad/worn/broken timing chain..
It's a chain. Be careful though, it's a faulty Renault timing chain. It's stretches and causes the engine to stall and not start. It's very expensive to repaire as engine needs to be stripped. Nissan are yet to issue a recall for this model.
a timing chain has broken
Yes.
If it i broken, your engine will not start. If it is worn, your engine may run rough.
If the car overheated, you may have warped the aluminum head. You may have to have the head shaved and a new head gasket put in.
Sounds like the timing chain adjuster is worn out. It is actuated by oil pressure. Was it replaced with the timing chain?
