It sounds like a clogged catalytic converter. If you can unbolt it; try unbolted it and see how it runs. Also try unplugging the sparkplug wire one at a time and see if the shaking gets worse or stays the same. When you pull a spark plug wire and the car stops shaking then that cylinder isn't firing. Watch out though, you'll get a nasty shock if you do it without insulated pliers. It could be a stuck valve or bad ignition.

SOURCE: Starting problem

Try the idle air control valve it is located near the throttle body it has a four wire plug and has two small hoses attached to it this is a small stepper motor that controls the amount of air on start up this part will cost about $200 from a popular auto parts store.

SOURCE: 2004 1.8l nissan sentra what now? not battery or fuel pump/filter

Check your catalytic converter. If you are over 80k miles, these devices will wear in stages. The first stage of wear is slower gear change at cruising speeds when approaching any type of incline. Second stage is the engine light will reveal a faulty oxygen sensor. Because the converter is basically a "filter" built into the exhaust system, it wears by slowly clogging, which leads to no starts, no power, and sometimes a blown head gasket. If your mechanic removed the oxygen sensor before the converter, theres a strong chance it would start right up.

Hello I just bought a 92 accord Lx 5 speed. first i found out my fuel gauge gives me wrong reading it says is 1/4 full when is empty. my second problem is when I'm around 1/4 tank full the car shuts off...

I dont know why car shuts off when the tank is 1/4 full. Try replacing fuel filter first then maybe fuel pump. I think you probably have a stuck fuel sending unit. Here is a video of the location of the fuel sending unit.

It sounds like a fuel pump and/or fuel filter. Couple of reasons - if fuel filter is partially clogged fuel pump works twice as hard. Also this time of year with big temperature swings condensation (water) forms in fuel tank. If its a weak fuel pump, as pump gets old/tired it won't hold adequate pressure and drains back at night or shut down. Try the fuel filter first and run a good fuel cleaner through it prior to changing filter.

Bought this car in January, everything was fine. now that the weather is hot, seems the fuel overheats and the car dies. Left to cool down, will run till it gets hot again.

Only way to really know is to test thing but the things that can do this are the fuel pump or relay. The crank sensor, the ignion module, the coil.

This is providing the coolant is not overheating. If the coolant is overheating then as the motor gets hotter,,less fuel will be added creating a possible stall. When an engine is shut off they usually get a little hotter by the sensors before they start to cool down.

I would suggest checking the fuel pump regulator to make sure the correct fuel pressure is getting to the pump.
