yes, of course there is. if the cylinder head gasket is burnet through, one cylinder fills with water and then the car runs on only 4 cylindres and the compression is too low
Because even idling engines use fuel.
Yes, "sparkling plugs" is definitely detrimental to idling or smooth running of an engine
it could be your timing is off
Check your spark plugs and leads.
Vaccuum leak somewhere
A bad exhaust will cause gas fumes to get inside the Nissan Maxima while it is idling. Gas fumes, if contained in an enclosed space, is dangerous.
i just payed $450 for mine and it has idling issues..searching for knock sensor location now...
Well, a transmission itself does not idle...the engine does. A vacuum leak in the engine will cause faster idling or slower idling depending on where the leak is. Newer transmissions do not use vacuum at all for their operation. Older vehicles used vacuum to help with the shifting of gears-automatic transmissions.
my experiencess with vehicles that cut out while idleing would be a fuel filter or fuel pump problem.
replace the carburetor idle speed electrovalve. Should pay about $3.00 for a new replacement part.
May be that one of the cylinders is not firing. Check spark plugs for oil/any other obvious damage.
Black smoke from the exhaust and rough idling are two of the more common problems. The egr valve can be removed and cleaned on most vehicles
