more than likely it is the water pump gasket,it probably has a tear in it or just dry rotted from age and use or if it is leaking out of the water pump itself it is the seal inside the water pump itself if this is the case the water pump must be replaced if it is the gasket just replace the gasket ...

What causes a 97 Nissan altima to cut off when you come to a stop light?

If a 1997 Nissan Altima cuts off at a stop light, there is a problem with the fuel getting to the engine. When you are accelerating, there is pressure and a higher flow of fuel, which is why it won't cut off then. The problem could be a leak in the fuel line, the fuel pump itself, or a fuel filter. It will need to be serviced.
