94 altima stalls frequently!! HELP
I have had this problem for about two months now where my '94 Altima will
start-up drive for about 5 miles and the dashlights will come on and the engine will not run. After coasting to the side of the road I will wait for usually 4-5 min and it will start up again and drive fine usually for at least another 20-30 miles before happening again. At times the wait for the restart has taken more than a hour. The shop I brought it to believed it was the fuel pump, therefore replaced ther pump with the fuel filter and checked the fuel lines, however no luck. Next they replaced the distributor and distributor cap because of heavy corrosion. It stalled on the way home from the shop. Next time, they adjusted the timing belt. Still no change in stalling frequency or pattern of stalling tendencies. The most recent diagnosis from Nissan is EVAP drain clogged and water stains on ECM, need to start with replacing ECM for $1162. The tech also noted a valve cover that was leaking badly and soaking the ignition wires that could be replaced for $245. And a knock sensorcode in system for $660. I have read various forum posts from around the net describing the same problem to a T with no solution. Please help i'm at my wits end. Thanks ophuss |
I have a '95 that is doing the exact same thing, no one can figure it out.
What was your fix? |
I would replace the valve cover gasket and replace the spark plugs and wires. Excessive oil on the sparks will make the car shut off. I have a lot of oil on my position 4 spark plug and will replace the plugs and gasket tomorrow. Another thing is you should replace the fuel filter (part is usually like 10 bucks) and PCV valve.

I haven't fixed it, it is just sitting waiting for a solution.
Do you have a solid idea? |
You are spending to much money in replacing the parts,so its better to have a new car in a same.You will get rid out of the tension.
