Sorry guys. I'm Not the best at saying what its doing. I'm going to try and say everything I can think of and ill try to answer all the questions. If I miss something I'm sorry. Ill read through everything after I reply. So it dies in gear. If I give it gas I can keep it running but it will try to die if I don't feather the gas. it dies while I'm still holding the clutch as soon as I put it inot gear. A few times when iv let it sit all night and went out in the morning its ran perfect for about 5 min. Then it went bck to dying. I can push the clutch in and out and it does nuthing. Its just when I push the shifter into gear. I took it to an auto shop and checked for leaks but couldn't find any (might still have some) but when I was there the lead was checking the carb and when she put her hand over the carb it ran great no problems. Idk what thet means. She said to try rebiulding the carb. Idk if I answered everything. I'm going to do the timing today or tomorrow and ill let you know what I get.

its shifts great. just dies as soon as it goes in. it has been having some problems starting. almost a backfire at times or to much compression..... it doesnt want to starts and when i let off it blow back sounds like air no fire yet. could my timing be off or 180 flop?

thanks for the help guys. planning on getting rid of it asap!!!!

they just run to the air box. so the only leak would be an exhaust leak. but i think your right. its running. not very well but running. so better to leave it

nuthing changes. only when i put it in gear. i was out side playing with it and i tried every gear still the same even tried turning up the idle and advancing the timing still no change. just doesn't want to run when its in gear.

so i know in most cars you want cold are intakes but in my 82 sentra i have 2 hoses going from my exhaust back to my intake. im not sure what they really do. and i kinda want to get rid of them but i dont want to hurt the car or lose any gas millage or power (the little it has). so i was just wondering if any one knew what the point of the hoses is and the ups and downs to taking them off or keeping them. if any one want to trade a 510 for a 82 sentra let me know. lol

i was having the problem before it got a little better after i had the head re built but still wants to die. check for leack and couldnt find any. when it was choked it was running really good just high idle. but if its wamed up and you just hold the rpms at like 2500 it will still die when put into gear. im planning on getting a carb from the junk yard and putting it on when i get payed but i dont want to blow money for no reason.

ya mine is electronic i believe. and its all gears it dies in. when i started it this morning it was fine had no issues for about 5 min or so. i think its when the choke opens it starts having problems. im not sure though. thanks for the help

i have an 82 nissan sentra 5 speed 1.5. i just had the top end re built and im still having problems with it. any time i put it into gear it wants to die. if its not in gear its fine. but as soon as you shift even with the clutch in it just dies. cant find a vacume leak but if you cover the carb it has no problems. some one said i have a leak in my carb. nut i want to know for sure whats going on before a tear my carb apart or buy a new one. any ideas.
