help blue maxima running bad need help engine experts step in

Car runs fine when cold but after it warms up it starts running like an rx7 sounds i can rev up and it almost dies and the put put put. I changed the fuel filter but it didn't help. Iam going to scan the codes tomorrow, what stumps me is that it only does it when the car is at normal running temp. cold its fine. please help. thanks

i'd check your ECTS with a multimeter since its a temp related problem

I would check the o2 sensors, ECTS, and the IACV. During cold start the ECU is in open loop so it is a preset map, since you're only having problems when warm, it could be the ecu isn't running right in closed loop where it gets feedback from the o2 sensors and other various sensors to make the car run smooth.

Check the MAF as well. See if you can find a buddy to swap with for a few minutes and see if the problems stop.
