[Roadsters] Sort of OT - need help with my maxima

[Keith0alan at aol.com]

My first thought would be those loose wires. If some of the sensors have  
been disconnected the engine computer can be getting confused. My 85 Z has 
the  Bosh style open loop analog fuel injection. It didn't give you a check 
engine  light when something went wrong, it just acted stupid. Sorting through 
the  sensors and making sure they are all working and hooked up is very 
time  consuming and about impossible without a proper manual. I would start 
with  temperature sensors.

86  maxima - suddenly starts somewhat rough - but fine when warms up -  but
won't restart when warm. new fuel filter, plenty of gas, plenty of  spark, 
ran
some injector cleaner through it - possible clue - had a heater  hose go and
car somewhat overheated for a bit - not long though - no leaks  and cooland
seems clean and no bubbles in the oil as far as i can tell -  but why won't 
it
start when hot???



Any thoughts would be  much appreciated. My mechanic won't work on it cos 
the
PO left a few too  many wires lyin around.



Thx
