I believe that you have the same VG33 V6 engine in that as in my daughter's 1998 Pathfinder. I replaced the distributor in hers back in April with an $82 from an online retailer, and set the timing to the factory 15 BTDC mark, where'd you find other information?

I'm guessing that you replaced the distributor for a reason, but you could've gotten its orientation off a gear or more, especially if you did not set the engine at TDC #1 before you removed the old distributor.

I assume that you have a timing light, and know how to use it.

Come clean....tell us the whole story...
