What is the difference between an oxygen sensor and an air-fuel ratio sensor?
An air/fuel sensor can read a much wider and leaner range of fuel mixtures than a conventional O2 sensor. That’s why they’re also called “wideband” O2 sensors. Another difference is that A/F sensors don’t produce a voltage signal that suddenly changes on either side of Lambda when the air/fuel goes rich or lean.
What is the crankshaft position sensor in a Nissan?
P0335 Nissan Description The Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) also known as the crank position sensor is an electronic device used in an engine to record the rate at which the crankshaft is spinning. This information is used by the Electronic Control Module(ECM) to control ignition and fuel injection.
Why does my Nissan Sentra make a glugging noise when idling?
Same issues as above, 80k miles. Got codes for multiple misfires, car is jerking at high speeds and makes a glugging noise while idling. We thought that this was caused by the engine running lean (some cat converter codes noted above). replaced the o2 sensors, but the issue persisted. One day the car doesn’t start.
Where are the oxygen sensors on a Nissan?
Your Nissan will have at least two oxygen sensors. One O2 sensor is upstream ( Bank 1- Sensor1 ) of the catalytic converter and can be accessed from the top of the engine. One or two sensors will be downstream, B1S2 and B2S2. The procedure is similar for the downstream O2 sensors (Bank 1 & 2, Sensor 2).
Why does my Nissan Sentra Jerk when I turn a corner?
If you have two different size tires on the front wheels, the smaller of the two tires will have to make more rotations in order to go the same distance as the larger tire, which in turn means that one axle will try and rotate more quickly than the other.
What causes a Nissan Sentra engine to stall?
The engine may stall at times due to a failed crankshaft position sensor and/or camshaft position sensor. These sensors can fail intermittently as they warm with the engine. Sensors on certain models have been recalled by Nissan and will be replaced as necessary.
