Take the time to write coherent sentences with punctuation, and I will take the time to reply. Deal?

Well the car has been a the Nissan service shop for 3 days now and they still can't figure out the issue. The car has more then half a tank of gas, they checked my battery,spark plugs,alternator,fuel pump.On there computer brings up a cam sensor error and that its some type of electrical issue. I was wrong before the car is not only cranking but turning on but instantly shuts off. The only 2 things that i can think of bu not sure is i have been having problems with my amp fuse and when i installed my exhaust headers etc there was no o2 sensor installed. So im still lost

You needs oxygen sensors in the exhaust system: 2 pre and 2 post-catalytic converter sensors. These are vital components of the ECU feedback loop.

Probly some type of harness is layingg on the exhaust and melted. I don't know how you have been driving without O2 sensors precat. You must be getting 5 mpg and some type of CEL?

Do you typically have extra parts left over when you work on you car? Maybe it's time to let a shop do the work for you. I don't understand how the dealer didn't notice the missing sensors.
