Problem when accellerating
OK this morning i noticed when ever i step on the gas the car would(cant relly explain this but here i go ) it was like act like its humping sumthing. it like it speeds up for a second and stops and keep doing that. unless i gently( like extra gental) step on the gas pedal. i also replaced the fuel filter yeasterday. this also happned when i cleaned the throttle body but it went away after like 5 mins of driving at low reves. but this is taking even longer.
some one pleazee help meee.... thanksss

Did you find the problem?
The most likely cause is going to be MAF or coil packs, although those aren't the only possibilities.
My car stalled/bucked (humped something
) on acceleration and it turned out that one of my rear coil packs was bad. I swapped in a lot of parts including ECU, cam sensor, ignitor, o2 sensor, throttle position sensor and MAF in trying to find the cause before I replaced the coil packs.
A lot of guys with VG engines have had their MAF or MAF harness cause this problem. It doesn't seem to occur as much with the VE for some reason. I also read where the cam position sensor caused stalling/bucking, but that was on a google search and as far as I know, no one on .org has verified this to happen.
I talked to a Nissan Tech a few months back and he said using non-OEM style spark plugs can also cause problems like this, particularly Bosch plugs.
When your o2 sensor craps out, you usually start getting worse gas mileage. I think some guys were getting around 200 miles to a tank, then by just replacing the 2 sensor it jumped up over 300 miles to a tank. I have yet to read where that caused anyone's car to stall or buck, however. Internetautomart is right. It should be replaced if it hasn't been in the last 60k.

yeah i get poor gas milage i got like 90 miles on like half a tank. but any way ayma newbi. so is replacing the 02 sensor A job for me. if ther is s write up for it then i can prolly do it. i should invest in a FSM.
