runs like crap
just swapped all the igition coils and spark plugs, unplugged the battery overnight to reset computer. now is been over 100 miles and it runs like crap. if i drive it like grandma, it's fine, but if i floor it, it revs up to 4k RPM or so, but then stopps accelrating, i have to really let off gas and slowly get on it for it to upshift and accelrate more. any ideas?
and for the first 5 minutes this morning after i started it, it ran like it was about to die.

any other ideas? before i got and pay $100 for a sensor.
i just went and started the car and it was pulsating RPMs and eventually died. started again, pulsating again, disconnected the MAF plug, RPMs jumped to over 1k and it started running fine, but there's still little vibration in the engine. now there's a SES light on.

I am new to the this website. but i have a 2k1 se maxima. question is does anyone have probs with the SES light? i recently installed a CAI and a hyper grounding kit, and the SES light went off for like 2 days. Any comments or suggestions as to how to turn it off and keep it turned off?

put a new MAF in, have not started it yet. the paper that came with it says i need to reprogram the ECU. what's it all about? i though, i just need to disconnect the battery for couple hours to reset the ECU and it will relearn everything.
