out the solution for the problem. He said the fuel is injected perfectly and the sparker also working fine. He tested the system with an computing device which said everything is ok.

the car, drove it and stopped it. When I try to restart it again, it is not. I have to leave it for a while and then if I start, it starts for once. Then again same condition... leave it for a while and then restart. It runs perfectly when I drove it.

problem. I would appreciate if someone could respond for this weird problem.

malfunctioning security system?

If it's a dead spot on the starter, you can sometimes diagnose it by rocking the car back and forth and then trying to start the car. I had this happen, the rocking got it started to get it home, replaced the starter and haven't had any more problems (with it starting).

Hi,

I have the exact same experience that tim described, in my 93 Maxima GXE with

121K. Sometimes it refuses to start. I rock the car back and forth a couple of times, and it starts like a dream, and the problem disappears for a few months. I've had it off and on since the last 8-9 months, but havent bothered to do anything about it. Now that I know its a dead spot on the starter, I'll look into getting it fixed. Thanks Tim, BeeP and mdmohideen.
