When it doesn't start again, you need to check for spark and fuel to the engine. One will be missing.

IT could. You should check the fuel pressure.

RCBJR - Did you resolve this issue? Because I am having the exact same problem with my '94 Sentra, and it has just about the same total mileage on it too.
