I Have a 96 Nissan Altima w\ only 65,000 miles. I am having a problem, where the car starts and runs fine for a few minutes but then it starts missing then eventually shuts off. I've replaced the Distributor, plugs, and wires. The car still does the same thing....
:banghead:

Anyone having the same problem just email me <x1gary@hotmail.com>

Here are some of my Car Pics (http://f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/x1gary/album?.dir=/f5ad&.src=ph&store=&prodid=&.done=http%3a//photos.yahoo.com/bc/x1gary) .... I will post more later

The cars electric system shuts down..... the distributor , coil , etc doesnt get any power. When the engine cools the car works fine, as soon as it gets hot again .... the engine misfires and then the car stalls ....
