Xterra studders when starting then idles up or shuts off	Sign In

My '05 xterra will start and run fine sometimes. Other times it will start, studder then shut off and it takes a bit to get it to start again. I have replaced everthing can think of, fuel pump, cam position sensor and crank sensor and the ecm relay. Any ideas please?
It either starts and is idled up or it starts idled down too low and can't get enough fuel to stay cranked?.

Any trouble codes stored? If so, what are the numbers?

You should read this:

When it doesn't want to start, you should check to see what is missing. Post your results.

did you scan for codes? Don't think no light no codes-
next would be fuel pressure- use a gauge! post psi.
