I've finally got my dream car (my wife hates it), but it won't start. It's a 1992 Nissan Maxima V6 DOHC and it's been sitting for 10 years. I changed the battery, cranked it and it catches but won't run longer than 1-3 mins. Any suggestions???? Chris

Since the car has been sitting for so long the fuel in the tank has got to be bad.I would bet the fuel pump is ruined.

Yeah, I figured that too. Just ordered a new fuel pump, fuel filter, and fuel relay switch. I just can't find the location of the relay switch. And online so far hasn't been any help.

The fuel pump relay is located in the trunk between the driver side tail lamp and the trunk latch.
