this evening at around 6:30 i got out to my car to go to work. opened the door, sat in, just like any normal day.

then proceeded to start my car. my started but then within two seconds the engine sounded like it was bogging like its was struggling to stay on, then rpm dropped, and complete shut off.

at this point i was like WTF JUST HAPPENED HERE!?!?!?!

then i start the car again but this time i revved it all the way to 4k then left it there for like 5 seconds, let off the gas and it was fine again. idle like normal an everything. i got out of my car and walked to the front, popped the hood and check for any leaks of sorts, nothing ont he ground underneath either. so i am very stummped.

i drove it to work and back after and it started and drove like normal again.

i am wondering what could have caused this? plugs? fuel filter? any idea guys i need your help. thnks in advanced.

 

happened to me too. but only one time, and i recall it was a very hot day.

 

it was the same for me. after i drove to work. everything was fine again. do you thing i need to replace the fuel filter and plugs?

 

i wouldnt worry about it unless it happens again. it wouldnt hurt to change those things tho.

 

check for vacuum leaks.

 

i'll just go ahead and replace my plugs, fuel filter, and check for vacuum leaks as well.

 

Tell me how that works out because my **** does that all the time.

 

try spraying some carb cleaner on the maf sensor

 

filter has been replaced. better MPG and response. plugs have yet to be changed. vacuums are all good.

 

man thats still happening to me. the hoses are fine but other than that i havent been able to check anything else.

 

that happend to me aswell, however I belive I know why, I was out of gas, just below the E and the car was park on a hill with the back end sloped down toward the bottoim of the hill, and it started chugged for a s econd droped to like 100 rpm and died. after I got it started it never happend again.

 

Which filter did your replace?

 

my fuel filter. stock nissan factory.

 

thats what my car does everytime i leave it sit for a few hours....its really bad in the mourning i have to start it then it dies right away then i start it again and it goes to about 1000rpms then bogs i push on the gas but no response most the time then the third try it always starts and revs to 2000 for like 5-10 seconds on its own then if i dont keep the pedal down it most the time dies after that i have to rev the engine up for a minute or 2 before i can let off the gas and go
