I JUST REPLACE CAR COMPUTER, WITH A NEW COMPUTER FROM NISSAN, BECAUSE OLD COMPUTER WAS NOT WORKING, SO I CAN PASS INSPECTION. CAR WAS RUNNING GREAT NO PROBLEMS. NOW NEW COMPUTER CAR RUNS ROUGH, LIKE NO POWER, AFTER YOU GET TO YOUR SPEED IT RUNS FINE UNTIL YOU SLOW DOWN. WHEN YOU CME TO A STOP IT DELLS LIKE IT WANT TO STALL. ALSO SOUNDS LIKE IT MIGHT BE BACK FIREING WHIL DRIVEING. I DROVE CAR 35MILES SINCE I PUT NEW COMPUTER IN.

DO YOU HAVE TO PUT A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF MILES ON FOR COMPUTER WORK SET PROPERLY.
I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT TO LOOK FOR. ENGINE LITE IS STILL OF

I kind of doubt it have it scanned for codes and fuel pressure checked with a gauge more than likely it's one of those.
