My 2000 Nissan Frontier will run fine for a while...then sputters and dies. Acts like it is running out of gas. I have replaced the fuel filter. Did not work. There are no codes showing. Any ideas?

Here's a few;

Old/bad gasoline, water in gasoline, weak fuel pump, in tank filter partly pluged, Loose electric connection at fuel pump, crud in fuel rail, carbon deposits in injector tips, partly pluged exhaust (bad cats) and poor electical ground wires.

Good Luck.. Don S..

If you are not using a Genuine Nissan oil impregnated air
filter, you should be!!!! Try cleaning the MAFS with
approved cleaner.
