My car does't pull when you accelerate.
I checked the fault code manually and it gave code fault 48.
I googled and the answer was LAF sensor(Lean Air Fuel)
I want to know what LAF sensor is and where I can locate on my car

There is no such thing on the vehicle. What you have is a lean air fuel mixture code, this means that you are running lean (more air, than fuel).

Items to check:
-vacuum leaks
-o2 sensors
-MAP/IAT sensor
-exhaust leaks
