2001 Altima

Jun 21, 2005 1 Replies

My daughter has a 2001 Nissan Altima. The car seems to drive ok but when one stops and after the car is warm it seems to have a miss or what I call an idle that is not right. It feels like it is going to quit but it doesn't.My husband changed the spark plugs and the fuel filter but it is no better and since he put the new fuel filter on the check engine light is on continuly.Any idea's would be gratefully appreciated.

it has a vacuum leak,

the intake manifold gasket is leaking and needs to be replaced

big job, not for your average shade tree knuckle busting weekend warrior.
