Hey I havc a 98 Nissan 200SX SE and for the last 3 months I've been
having problems with this car. It shuts off after driving it for
awhile, I will be driving it and then it will just lose power and then
shutoff I also notice in the night that my exhaust manifold was glowing
red and it was extremely hot. So I changed the oxygen sensor, the crank
shaft position sensor, the distributor, spark plugs, spark plug wires,
fuel pump, and after changing all of these parts, I was still getting
codes like P0608, P0102, P0115, P0901, P0207, P0214, P0505. But
recentyl I've changed the MAF sensor and the car is running better but
it is still shutting off and now I am getting a PO215 code.
If anyone knows whats is wrong with my care reply ASAP!

Check for a clogged catalytic converter?
You may have two of them in the system.

I have the 1998 Nissan Sentra/200SX service manual. I am not a
mechanic, but out of curiousity, I looked up P0215, and don't even see
any P02XX codes listed in the manual. I did a web search and the web
lists P0215 as "Engine Shutoff Solenoid Malfunction". Looking through
the service manual, I could not locate that component either.

Sorry

Jim

I've run another test at advance auto instead of using the self manual
test from the ECU( which by the way is still giving me the P0215 code)
and I got P1446 which means and EVAP Canister Vent Control Valve
(Close). Also when I'm putting fuel in my car every 5 seconds I have to
stop the pump because the gas comes back up. So if anyone knows what
exactly or have any idea what this problem mean, and if this is why my
car is shutting off pls respond.
