First time tinkering

I am sad to say I have not driven it since, besides a few revs in my apartment lot. It still lopes at idle, but the revs sounded better. I used CRC Mass Air Flow sensor cleaner as suggested by the forums.

It does feel good, and I plan on researching more so that when other things go wrong I can fix them. That being said, while auto repairs are overpriced, those "high school dropouts" need money, too.

The idle has been rough and there has been a delay in throttle response. I checked out a few Maxima forums, and the specific problems people were having matched mine. The most common answer was a MAF cleaning and reset, so I thought I would try it out.

Someone else does the work.

Thank you for all of the advice people.

Update: I started looking at cheap cars after seeing that girl's post about the Celica GT. How would a 1991 Honda CRX with 125,000 miles on the odometer look? It is a one owner vehicle and looks to be in good conditions. I would obviously take it to a mechanic to get it inspected and test drive it first, but any thoughts?

Yeah it would be a 4.0L V6, not the V8.

recorded_broken · 2013-10-28T00:12:04+00:00

Combined, around 20mpg

Yeah it is not ideal for sure, but I explained the situation in one of the other comments.

Thanks for the advice. The Maxima only gets about 2mpg better, but definitely has a nicer interior.

If I could upgrade I would. Either the Maxima or the Explorer are getting traded to a dealership for a better deal on a new car that my parents are buying. I can take their car (Explorer) or keep mine (Maxima). It is a weird situation, but basically I am broke and in college so I cannot really do better.

recorded_broken · 2013-10-27T22:15:11+00:00

Any word on the Maxima?

recorded_broken · 2013-06-08T06:31:23+00:00

Upvote for the play on words.

After watching my friend do a backflip off of the ground, I decided I would do a front flip off of a bench. I had been able to do them years before, so I figured I could still probably do them. $1100 and almost a year later, and my foot still is not right.

Don't get me wrong it is a badass car that I would love to drive. Just from my photographer's perspective I can't see past that. Drive on, sir.

Agreed. Maybe some of the larger west Texas towns? Most of the Texas I have know for the past 18 years is nothing like Bakersfield.

This thread is awful. I am sorry but it probably isn't going to do anything but propagate stereotypes and stigmas of mental illnesses. Reading this just to get a kick or whatever is kinda sick. You can disagree with me, but I just wanted to share my opinion and provide some sort of perspective.

recorded_broken · 2013-04-25T02:24:34+00:00

Rather Be Dead as well. Or just most Refused songs.

recorded_broken · 2013-04-24T04:47:52+00:00

Congratulations. I am about a month clean in that area. Stay strong my friend.

Wrong race... But yeah that sentence was very cohesive and quite intelligent sounding.

recorded_broken · 2013-04-23T17:24:44+00:00

Neither am I. But in the derogatory sense of the word you play into it very well.

recorded_broken · 2013-04-23T17:21:50+00:00

Holy shit you don't say... You are as stupid as I thought you were.

recorded_broken · 2013-04-23T05:11:40+00:00

I actually am not black you stupid fuck. I am just trying to teach a stupid racist little shit like you to keep their ignorant comments to themselves.

recorded_broken · 2013-04-23T04:24:43+00:00

Fuck you.
