Just changed the plugs, cables, rotor and distributor cap to get rid of the mis-fire. Plugs, 2 & 4 have oild on them. The mis-fire remains.
What's next or get rid of the Nissan?
Thanks,
Mike
Good Luck

Another possibility is that someone put in a huge amount of oil, and this is also stressing the catalytic, -- but in this case you'd probably have lots of smoke out the tailpipe.

Checking Catalytic Converters

Here's a good quick description of different types of brake pads:
BRAKE PAD TYPES
And once you know the terminology, here's a great FAQ section on pads and rotors:
Questions About Brakes and Rotors
As for struts, KYB is okay. Always buy quality in struts--stay away from any "bargains", they simply will not last. I like Bilstein and Koni but they aren't cheap.
P.S. Why didn't the morons at Nissan just put it in the gas tank and give you a fishing line and hook to remove it!!! :mad:
anyone else having issues with nissan gas caps.
the dealer is taking its time replacing the altima's cap.
thanks, rr70
Has anyone else out there had a problem with self-loosening gas caps ?
I have noticed that my Bose stereo sytem in my 2005 Altima tends to adjust the volume on it's own. Has anyone encountered this problem?

The dealer also said that it was normal. It is the resetting of the brake-interlock. I hardly think that an audible resetting of the interlock is normal operation. However, the click hasn't gotten louder nor hasn't interfered with the operation of the transmission. Looks like I'll have to suffer through having that click.
