Engine Dies +Radiator Leaks

[ramaks]

Hello all!!

I am a newbie and i recently bought an Altima GXE 93.It's got 137k miles on it.Frankly got it for $1200.Well it seemed to run good.

1.When you let the Engine Idle ,after some time it sputters ..keeps happening for some time..normal running..sputters..normal running and after 5/7 mins ultimately dies down.

2.The Radiator leaks.I might have to replace it.Is it possible for me to use some kind of leak fix.Could a leaking radiator damage other parts too in the car??

Thank you folks.I would appreciate your advice.

it might have something to do with your radiator, i mean check it out becuase if its leaking then youll have to replace it. I dont think its anything else, your car is M.T or A.T?

Hi Guys!!!

My mechanic fixed the car.Hope this will be helpful for others who face the same problem.
1.The problem was with one of the spark plugs.Also it seems that Bam- Bam was right ( for a qns in my other post).Somwhow more fuel than was really necessary was being injected and this was causing problems too..
