ok, got the max sitting on the driveway for almost a week. yesterday, i went to start it up and it strart right up and then die, it does it everytime i strart it. i saw the rpm went up and then stall for a while and then it went down and the car die.

it was made on 1994 and sold as 1995 model and i went to autozone and they cant pull the code, need to go dealer and i hate stealership.

I could be your coolant temperature sensor.. but I'd also check the hoses along your intake system. My car did a start and stall out not to long ago.. It ended up being a part of the intake was pulling away from the other parts, leaving a gap around the acordian looking part of the intake. Its like losing vacuum pressure. It'll start up fine then die out.
A coolant temp sensor usually gives you a very rough idle for a second of and on. You can compensate by pushing the pedal to floor, this can usually keep your car from stalling out when that happens.

 

Oh, also check around your throttle plate and throttle intake, pcv valve. If have a build up in them they can cause what your having to. It does sound like your having is an air issue.

 

there is a sticker that tells you where to hook up the diagnostic, which says to the right of the center console. know where your ecu is by the gas pedal? well it's on the other/back side of the ecu where they hook up the diagnostic tool. and all 4th gens are obdII.

 

fixed the problem, faulty/bad TPS. Went to Autozone and got it. It for Infiniti but it work on Maxima too. Drove it today whole day around 60 miles and it drove good.


i also change the temp sensor.


how do pull the code out after reseting the computer?
