My 2004 Nissan Titan 4x4 SE will crank, but will not start. Using some ether in the air box will cause some sputtering but will not start the engine. The engine problem occured while driving. The engine was warmed up, There is 3/4 of a tank of gas, and the weather was dry and cold. The engine cut off during a turn. I was able to restart and drive another 1/2 mile before the engine sputtered and shut down again. This time the engine would not restart. There are no engine codes showing on the OBD II tester. There were ABS and VDC warning lights on before this engine problem. The local Nissan dealer says there is no connection between the two problems. They also have no idea what is going on with the engine and lack of trouble codes. Any help would be appreciated.

Well first of all, who ever gave you the idea of using ether to start your Titan should be strung up to the rafters and shot with frozen paint balls. Using ether to try to start this vehicle can lead to the heads separating from the block. Do not tell the dealer that you did this!!!

Is the fuel pressure ok? Do you still have spark? Its possible that a cam position sensor is not responding/relaying a signal.

Without looking through your engine, I would guess that it is probably an injector problem, or maybe a clogged fuel line which would not register any codes because they have no sensors to record any fault. I hope this help please rate this thank you

2004 nissan titan = starts and runs fine for a while - and then spits and sputters and wont run for a while - then runs fine for a while - then spits , sputters, and wont run any...

Not sure to be honest as to what the cause could be ,i would suspect a coil pack problem or even the ignition module if it has one but i think it may be built into the ECU ,although you havent stated if this is a diesel engined vehicle so having more information would help a great deal

I have a 1997 Nissan Kingcab SE 4x4 with a 2.4. Everytime it rains it wants to spit and sputter. What causes this to happen?

i would check the distributor cap for cracks, this can draw moisture when it rains, and cause a engine to do as you are saying, spit and sputter, and even cut out.
