Q: 2005 Murano 3.5l no spark
Drove the car over 100 miles to the beach on monday, no issue. Before we made our way back, I stopped to fill up on gas. After leaving the gas station we get 5 miles down the road before the car sputters and stalls. Was able to get it to start in neutral, stalled after another 250 yards. Pull over to the side of the road and cannot get engine to start. Long tow home.
Replaced front cam sensor about 2-3 weeks ago, after changing leaky valve covers. I changed the other cam sensor last night. Had a your mechanic over today who tested for spark, none found. he tested for voltage on the connectors and they were good. Advised to replace the crankshaft sensor. Installed new sensor. Still no start. any ideas?
My car has 138000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
