A couple of days ago, my Nissan was running great, and I pulled into the grocery store, left, pulled onto the highway, and it sputtered, and died. And, has not started since. I thought it was the crank shaft positioner, and changed it. That, was not the problem! I noticed what appeared to be a weak spark off the plug wire.
All assistance, and consideration is greatly appreciated.

If you noticed a weak spark, it could be a problem with the ignition module or coil. It'd be rare to have all four plugs/wires go bad all at the exact same time.

The symptoms also point to a bad fuel pump, fuel pump relay, or clogged fuel filter... Could also be a failed fuel pressure regulator.

Is the check engine light on, and did you have the car scanned for codes (some auto parts stores do it for free)?
