I have a 01 Altima with approx. 43,000 miles. The problem I have is
without warning the car will suddenly cut-off, typically but not
always when it is in idle. Sometimes when it is in idle the RPM’s will
flux between 600 and 800 rpm’s. I have very little problems restarting
the car and I have no engine light coming on. But I need to fix this
problem before it gets worse.
I spoke with the dealer and they told me the altima’s are famous for
getting oil in the distrubitor and that could be causing the problem.
So I have 3 questions.
1) Could it be anything else besides the distrubitor?
2) If Altima’s are popular for getting oil in the distrubior is there
anyway I can prevent that from happening again?
3) Anyone else experience this problem?

Thanks in advance

I'm not sure that an 01 Altima even has a distributor...
