I have a 1998 nissan Frontier. It starts and idles fine but
when you drive it and try to come up to speed it has no
power, you have to baby it half throttle to get up to
speed. I have changed the NOC sensor, housing , fuel
filters, fuel pump, and have taken it to three different
mechanics who have all failed to find the problem. Anyone
have any ideas?

Does the engine miss or run rough when you try speeding up
normally? Does the engine sound like it's struggling at
all, or just rev and no go?
Also helps to have more info on your truck. Which engine
and transmission

MAFS???????????????????? Timing chain may have jumped a
couple of teeth, any more than that and it is not going to
run(bends valves). Also check for any debris down in the
hole for the MAFS. I'm sure you are using a Genuine Nissan
oil impregnated air filter!!!!!????????!!!!!!!!!!
