If it turns over but does not fire then it is prolly the fuel pump. Running them dry is not healthy especially with the ethenol in todays gas.

97 nisson pathfinder won't start some times after sitting over night.

The next time this happens have a can of spray starting fluid handy (available from any hardware or auto parts store), spray it into the air intake of the engine if it starts you most likely have a sticking in tank electric fuel pump problem.

Try looking for the fuel pump reset switch, which may be towards the back of the vehicle hidden behind a panel.

My 2005 nissan pathfinder acts like its out of gas. Put gas, started ran like normal for about two days. Then just stalls out with no warning. Will start back up like twice before it finally just...

My 2005 pathfinder was having the same problem. Took it to the dealer and they told me that there was a re-call on a relay that goes to the ECU. They suggested a engine diagnostics. If it turned out to be the relay, the part/labor and diagnostics would be free. My pathfinder is running great now. Hope this helps.
