1986 Nissan 720 Pickup hardbody review from North America
"The 86 Nissan is a great little truck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have recently had a continuous problem with acceleration. Upon accelerating the engine sometimes shuts down, but will immediately restart. Other times when I accelerate it acts like the engine is starving for gas and will not rev up. Sometimes I pull off the road and sit trying to accelerate until the engine revs up enough to take off again. Upon doing so the same thing happens again. I have had all the vacuum hoses replaced as well as the carburetor gasket in the event it was a air problem in the carburetor. I also replaced the plugs and wires as well. I am at a loss as to what the problem is and would welcome any help from someone who perhaps has or had a similar problem.
General comments?
The truck runs great when the acceleration is okay and couldn't ask for better performance.
