4,000 RPM I assume? Check your plugs, wires, timing.

Also, how many miles are on this engine?

well the motor has about 176,000 on it and ya sometimes it will stall out on a start up..and i thought it might be the spark plugs so i changed those..so ya i guess i should have done the plugs also.

As l8tapex said, plugs, wires, and such.... also the early nissans had problems with injectors starting to fail after time. So its time to upgrade or replace them.

Pakelika, unless youve personally diagnosed his car dont go around making uneducated statements such as he needs his HG replaced just because its high mileaged. Id do the easiest stuff first, check your timing, get a free MAF(or clean yours), then move on to the tune up things.
