Nissan Repair: nissan maxima 1986, air flow meter, nissan maxima


Question
The car will start just fine, but it will run for a mile or so and then quits running.  My husband is at a loss as he has checked and/or replaced the air flow meter, catalytic converter, distributer and plugs.  We have owned several Maximas in the past and never had this problem.  It is like it doesn't get gas or something.  We even drained the tank thinking it might be bad gas.  Help!

Answer
have you done/run a computer code test??????.....check fuel pressure?.......does it have the new fuel injectors, rails etc on it?.......does it have fire when it dies?////hook a timing light up an tie it to a w/s wiper arm so you can see the light.......
