i have a 93 240sx se and it idles rough and when you floor it it will not respond at all. If you slowly push on the gas it will run but bogged down a lot at about 50% power. I changed the MAF sensor today and that did not fix the issue. I appreciate any ideas..this is my daily and i have got to get this fixed. THANKS-Josh

can ya tell if your running rich?..ie (too much gas)..if so..it might be injectors..allso..take a look at your intake many seal..and check vacume lines..those things get old and crumble after a while...post back and let us know what ya find.

will everything kind of die if you rev (softly) to 2500 rpms-ish? i've heard 2500 is the magic number for a bad or disconnected maf sensor. if it doesn't and still runs like crap then you might have a big air leak. check all hoses and couplings, kinda like liquid_cool said.
