EGR will also be smudged .. sommer block tha one off anyway -- then get a quality ELECTRO CLEEN [Carb cleaner also works: Spanjaard seems best] and clean the AFM [air flow meter

ALSO - you friendly efficient low priced nearest NISSAN dealer and let the 'console' check wat gaan aan

I finally resolved all the issues. The main culprits were the six spark plugs they were so dirty and clogged ,I'm amazed she even ran at all. Seems like severe clogging on cylinders 3&4, while less of a problem on 1&6.

Anycase, today for the last part of the repair, I'll make a sticker for the inside of the petrol flap "ULP ONLY!"
