Intermittent power loss- HELP!
Hello people,
Newbie here... I have a P10... but I went to the p10 area and it said come here.... I wonder if you can help- my mechanics have failed! Every so often, when driving along, my car starts to judder... as if its running on three plugs or something.... during this time I cannot accelerate. (It happened this evening.....I pressed the accelerator to the floor- no response). It doesnt last long... only 30-60 seconds at most before it fixes itself and the car runs fine again! I have replaced HT lead, plugs, petrol filter, distributor cap. The nissan diagnostic machine shows no errors. It can be 10 miles or 400 miles between this happening. I have been travelling at different speeds and in different outside temperatures. Any help would be greatly appreciated... I'm lost ...

Sounds pretty bad, have you checked all the vacuum hoses for leaks and intake tubing?
I think even the brake booster vacuum hoses being disconnected can make the car stall so check everything is tight. Does it backfire also? Cos it could be injectors, TPS adjustment or maybe AAC valve. Have the coil checked as well.
