I have a 2002 Nissan Frontier V6 that begins to buck and/or " cough " a bit when I reach 40 to 45 mph..It does not seem to be consistant.. I have replaced the dist cap, rotor, spark plugs ( gapped at .043 ) and ign wires...which has not solved the problem..I am looking for clues as to what else would be causing this...The tach appears to be jumping a bit when it does start running roughly...The truck has 185,000 miles..No clue what to try next...Help!!

It sounds like the dist. is failing. Remove the cap, rotor
and inspection plate, see if there is any debris or tiny
ball bearings under the inspection plate.
