Sorry about my english, i hope you can understand to me.
The mechanic clean the throttle body, change new ngk sparks, change oil, and filters, after that my car begining with starting problems, more problems if the engine is cold, by the mornings i need to pull and move several times the gas pedal to make the car starts, after the car starts it run fine, like new one, if the engine is warm or hot i can start it most faster, but not at 100%, i really really angry whit the mechanic, i tell to him that before he did the labor in my car it run and start perfect, here in mexico we said "start like fire" but after that my car is not the same.
another mechanic check the ngk sparks, all were ok, the throttle body looks fine, there are no codes in de ECU, there are no check engine light.
we change the coolant temp sensor. check all the injectors, ok, the starter is perfect to. no problems whit battery. during the day the car no got problems or variations in the RPM.
one more thing.... in the morning when the car finally starts, the rpm begining in 700-800 then it moves slowly until 1000-1100 rpm, in my other car when the engine is cold the rpm go faster at 1100 rpm until the engine is hot.
i apreciate all your help, this problem make me feel like crazy.

Hey check your engine grounds. According to this site they are notorious for causing starting problems: http://autos.msn.com/research/vip/Reliability.aspx?year=1997&make=Nissan&model=Maxima
I'm having similar problems and about to have mine checked out

Check O2 signal quality, connectors ... If problems are in oxidized connectors, mech is not to be blamed. See link below.
Coilpacks do die by the mile.
