Nissan Repair: Nissan Altima 1999, throttle position sensor, nissan altima


Question
Car starts fine and runs good but shuts down at stop sign or traffic light, is the problem the starter

Answer
sounds to me like you have a faulty tps (throttle position sensor).  the starter only is operative at startup.  when you slow down to a stop or at low idle, if your tps is faulty it will cause your engine to run rough, stall, hesitate, etc.  this is not adjustable, only replaceable.  good luck and e-mail me your findings!! thanks!  xxp_sebby@yahoo.com
