i was making my pizza delivering rounds last night when my car straight up died on me. it'll turn over and "run" for about 3 seconds (by "run" i mean sputter at 300rpms before shutting off)

i'd really like to give up driving my dad's 2k3 SE maxima and get the 2nd gen back (yeah right )

You might want to check for codes. Sounds like maybe a MAF malfunction. Also you could have a bad ECU but I doubt that. Check to see if you can start the car without the maf plugged in. If it does that sputter thing again.

so i never had time to look at the car until today...

turns out the intake fell off right behind the MAF

problem solved though and its running way better than before with the intake hooked up and all

Probably because he has a missing clip for the harness maybe. Those things have been known to break/go shooting off into the unknown.
