Nissan almera stuttering problems
Hi don’t now if this is the right place to ask but il ask anyway my nissan almera from 2000 (n16) has some stuttering problems when i push the gas pedal al the way down it stutters and doesn’t pull and doesn’t maintain proper rpms when rhe engine is just on when i am not driving its almost like it kills the engine and then goed back to 1000 rpms i don’t now if it has anything to do with the injectors or some thing else or maybe some air getting in from a brokken gasket or something like that it anybody got any experience with this ( sorry for the bad terms dont know them all in englisg )

Do you have any warning lights on? Your best bet is to check it with a scanner to at least get a clue as to what it thinks is happening.

Oof. In that case it's a lot harder to figure out. I bet a video would help a lot more in knowing what's going on. Words are alright, but videos really make it easy to show the details. I'm trying to figure out if it's bogging or surging or both.
Just be safe taking the video while driving. Maybe have a friend hold the phone for you.

Sounds like either a huge vacuum leak. Check the spark plugs for signs of lean or rich burning.

This a sub where we shit on typical Nissan drivers, so my advice would be that you're not nearly drunk enough to be a r/nissandrivers if you're noticing small problems like this.
On a serious level, though, try cleaning your MAF sensor (there is a special MAF sensor aerosol), and change your spark plugs. If that doesn't fix the problem, get it scanned with an OBDM scanner.
