I am trying to diagnose a problem with a 96 altima with a dual overhead cam engine. the car ran fine till it was parked for 9 months. now that is being put back in use. when cold, it starts, idles, and drives perfect. once it warms up, it will sputter at idle, and eventually die, and will not restart till cold again. I did a fuel pump test, and the pump pressure is fine, so it is getting gas. I have not done a spark test yet, but plan to, even though I know it is now a no spark problem. my question is, has anyone run into this problem before?? I don't know much about foreign cars, but believe it is either a bad coil, or a bad ignition module.
