i have a 95 nissian altima gxe. recently it started dieing when at idle and while turning, then it will be hard to start if it will start at all-especially when it gets hot. I'll let it cool down and sometimes it will start and run ok for about 15 mins then same thing, or it won't start or hard to start and I'll have to try again later. There is no apparent reason that it dies out other than it seems to be heat related. replaced mass air flow sensor, egr solenoid, had intake leak and repalced intake gasket, taken to dealer and had checked out 6 times they were unable to properly diag the problem. the car is now in a regular car shop and they are having a hard time too. if there is any techs out there that have run accross this problem before please let me know what it is.

already replaced the distributor with aftermarket re-man twice. with new oil seal. there is no oil on the sensor, i've checked that.

First off the 1995 altima had all the problems you fixed except the oil in the distributor problem. The didtributor shaft leaks oil into the electronics and car shuts off like turning the key off.
Have independent shop remove the distributor cap then the dist rotor. Next the black plastic piece under the rotor. If by now they notice swelling of the rubber seals for the dist cap oil caused it. Spray clean with brake cleaner everything remove the dist. cap seals to let the little amount of oil run out. Reinstall the cover rotor cap and drive. Or pay 430 dollars and buy a nissan distributor. (oil gets in the photo optic sensor and stall)

i apologize if this is useless info but im pretty sure when your changing it at the work shop you'd be able to check there you need to have AT LEAST an inch of gap from the tyres to the wheel arch, but please note that those 20s will ruin your ride and handling and also your speedo might be a little off (if the stock wheels are 18s and above then it wouldn't effect the car too much) just a heads up...
