ISSUE & TIP

A 1987 Nissan Sentra that intermittently dies while driving may have a poor wiring connection near the throttle body housing. Open the engine wiring harness in this area and look for a crimped connection. The three wires may come apart and should be soldered together to prevent further problems. Also check for loose ground wires on the intake manifold.
