Hesitant Nissan Sunny - James Fox

Hello

I am the lucky owner of a 1993 Nissan Sunny 1.4 LX with 60k its a good car except for a slight hesitancy when moving off - occuring at about 1500 rpm.

I have replaced all the usual suspects, this car has a Cat although it is not fuel injected in the conventional sense. I am worried about the possibility of unburned fuel harming the cat.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what the cause might be, I have heard that there is a similar fault in a Primeras of this age

Best Regards

Jamie

It's a standard problem with the monopoint injection system in early catalysed Sunnys and Primeras. But a good clean out of the throttle body may help.
