Okay! so today i pickup my car nissan maxima 2000 from having it stored for 2 weeks and at first im driving smooth. i stop go into a seven-eleven start the car and my whole car is vibrating/shaking enough to feel it on the doors/seats/pedals...everything! so i ignore it and drive and somehow on my way home it just goes away. i start it up again later and it doesnt do it, start it again and it does...again its like a 50/50 chance.

thats not the half of it i also noticed today while having my car on PARK and rev'd the engine the Odometer works fine i step out car and when i walk into my house and coe back out i notice my engine shut itself off, no engine noise or nothing just shut off... i try it again and sit and wait in the car to experience what might actually be going on and i notice my Odometer drops back to 0(Zero) before my engine turns itself off always when im on park and rev but it doesnt seem to be happening on other gears Drive/revers etc.. seem to be ok and its not suhtting off at stop lights at all. ONLY WHEN IM ON PARK AND REV.

WTF HELP ME PLEEEEASE

also i should mention if i leave my car warming up eventually the rpms on Odom start to deplete untill my engine just shuts itsself off

im no expert but i am stumped and my friend who is something close to decent with his own car mech skills isnt sure either but hes a honda freak and pretty much no help

Help please!

only thing i can think of is that today i had my hood open while it was raining for a bit and i tried driving some barely wet parts with a towel and letf it at that.
