Could use a little help...(little long)
I have come upon a new problem with my car. I can drive down the road and while under acceleration, I have no problems. But once I stop at a stop light and have to wait more than 10 sec the car stalls out!! It doesn't do it all the time, just 3 times today and twice two weeks ago. No one in my town will help me with my car (expecially the nissan dealership). All the plugs are ok, and nothing seems to be outa order, but the car justs decides to stall out. The ideas that I am working on are as follows:
1. I have adjusted the TPS for the nitrous and I could be getting inaccurate readings, but why would it start doing this now 3 months after adjusting the TPS.
2. Clogged fuel injectors or losing the fuel pump?
3. Loose vacum hose, somewhere, and where exactly I don't know.
4, It can't be the alternator, because everything in the car works with out dimming or giving at all.
Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Same thing happened to me and it was the MAF sensor. You can test it if your are good with a Volt meter. The other thing it may be is a engine Coolant sensor but 10 Bucks sais it's the MAF sensor. Warning: Don't buy one from a dearler$hip go to a junk yard or check out

The dealer charges like $500 for the thing so do what I did and get a used one. I just got one for $55 and it works great.
