SOURCE: 1996 nissan altima no acceleration and poor idle?

check whether you might have a catalyst problem,1. doesn't idle as no emissions let out of the exhaust system,2. doesn't accelerate as the engine is pressurized as no released emission. Try to check by requesting somebody to accelerate as steady and you check through the end of your exhaust pipe if the emission outlet sound is loud enough or if is like weak sound.if is the second result surely your cat is the problem as also you receive a smell of a rotten egg as well.

Catalytic converter overheat

A rich fuel mixture will cause the catalytic converter to run hot. A plugged catalytic converter will cause the engine to run poor but not overheat normally

My 1996 dakota ran hot blew the top off the radiator. i replaced it now when it starts it will not idle and runs rough

you may want to have a block check done on the cooling system to see if the head gaskets are any good as this can cause the top of the rad to blow off and the rough running and poor idle.

The car idles rough and the code reader shows each cylinder missfireing

need to check the fuel regulator and or change fuel filter. not enough pressure causes misfiring and poor engine performance.

1996 explorer 4.0 181000 miles ... cranks and idles fine try to accerlerate it dies... cranks right back up .. making a humming noise through the breather... replaced mass airflow sensor and the check...

check for a leak in the air duct between the air filter box and the throttle body. When the mass airflow sensor was replaced you may have failed to get tight connections and any leak in this ductwork will cause problems with driveability. Also check for any thin or soft ruber spots in hoses between PCV valve and the intake. Any holes in these will cause the vehicle to run poorly but normally would be noticed at idle also.

1996 Chev Cavalier chugging and stalling running rough idle

Bad injectors causing the vehicle to run poorly can cause other damages to sensors etc. Buy a code reader and check the codes.

1996 Volvo 850 shakes when started and when idling

Sounds like maybe they left something unhooked or accidentally knocked something off. Personally I'd go back & explain, as they know what areas they worked on , and may be able to find it faster.
