SOURCE: no power hesitation

Did you replace the fuel filter ? There is NO WAY TO CHECK a fuel filter. Because fuel comes out of the feed side of the filter does not mean its not clogged. It could restrict under pressure. I say , start by REPLACING THE FUEL FILTER. There is also a screen in the tank attached to the pick-up. It also gets clogged at times. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: Stumbles and backfires on acceleration

Check the distributor shaft. They have a history of developing finite cracks that causes the condition your describing. Let me know if I can help you with any other info.

SOURCE: bogging and hesitation on acceleration iddle is fine

You definitely covered most of the bases. Considering all you've done so far, I would check into the fuel system next. First, how old is the fuel filter? Has it been changed? Yes, a bad filter can cause the problems your having. Next would be the fuel pressure regulator. You need a fuel pressure gauge to check it, which you should be able to rent from a good auto parts store. That will also tell you how good your fuel pump is, i.e. if the pump can deliver the necessary fuel pressure off idle. After that, I would check the injectors themselves for wear or blockage. A bottle of fuel injector cleaner in the gas tank would be a good idea, cheap, quick, and it wont make anything worse. If all that checks out, check your catalytic converter, a clogged or bad cat will also do what your describing. Good luck.

My Chevrolet s10 4 cylinder

Possible cracked sparkplug insulator. Faulty plug wires. Both can cause a backfire. I would replace the plug wires if they seem worn, and check each plug thoroughly. Good Luck

Hesitation and backfiring when accelerating

there will be codes stored so the scanner in use has not got the right protocols to read the ECM
Nissan products have to be set using a screw in the ECM to get to read the codes
you have to be specific with make , model , year , type of equipment to get closer

I own a 95 nissan sentra automatic runs but w/hesitation

1995 sentra's are notorious for being pieces of shyte. Maby try and sell it to an old bag and put some "electrical tape over the warning light,hint,hint". Tell her the surging is a super charger and it can be easily removed.

Bogs and backfires

What have you done so far? Does your van have electronic ignition or points? If the latter i'd check/replace points, capacitor & white, low tension wire inside distributor. Also check the spark plugs (all four should have the same grey/brown colour) & H.T. lead resistance, especially if the fault occurs under load/acceleration.
