I checked the timeing, all the grounds and tested all the sensors, also replaced the ecm with a known good ecm. But I think I got it. Below the mixer on the right side of the unit is a cap. i removed the cap and threr was a align screw there which adjusted the air fuel ratio. Useing the computer i was able to bring into spec, and thank you again for all the help.

I've had some Nissan motors act like that when the ignition timing was advanced a bit from where it was supposed to be.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
