Maxima still stalls/hesitates/rumbles/smells rotten after warming up (20miles of driving or so), so far ive tried cleaning TB, changed MAF, EGR, FPR, IACV. Still no idea whats going on.
And now, I got a new problem, the shifter (AT) seems to have the lock button stuck in. So my key is stuck in the damn ignition! And I can put it into gear without pushing on the brake. I had to use a vice grip to latch onto the button and pull it out enough so it would disengage the key lock, but now im stuck in park, in a home depot parking lot, 15minutes from my house!
You've done all that, but you haven't changed the one part that is actually temperature dependant? Check and change the ECTS.
Have you checked the shift lock solenoid for your second problem? Happen to spill a drink on the center console lately?
Woops, forgot to mention the ECTS. Changed that when the water pumped died last month and I drove the car until she started to steam =\
I haven't spilled anything, which is whats driving me crazy!. I'm guessing I'll have to disassemble the center tomorrow during the day so I can see what I'm doing.
I've fixed my stalling issues after re-grounding the MAF grounding wire (black)
Hmm.. My car has TERRIBLE grounding (when I bought the car, it had been chopped-shopped, so just about EVERY wire harness is poorly spliced in). The wires are a mess, and the car always seems to never have any power (roll up a window and the car looses revs and everything dims). Guess it dosen't hurt to try?

Thats a problem you should address first.
Rotten egg smell is usually a bad cat.
