I start her up for work and drive about 2 miles. The engine starts to sputter and run extremely rough. If i can pump the gas enough she will continue to run with high RPM. If i let off the gas she dies and won't restart for about 20 mins. She starts right up and acts like nothing is wrong. i am pretty sure it is a fuel problem. I, just haven't had a can of starter fluid when it happens. Anyone else have this phenomenon?
Thank you for your response, Sincerely, kwright39

Try cleaning the MAFS w/ approved cleaner and install a
GENUINE NISSAN air filter.

 Thank you for your reccomendations. I installed a new air filter and cleaned the filthy MAFS with an expensive can of MAFS cleaner. $ well spent. The totlal repairs were under 25$ and my Frontier hasn't stalled since. You da man! Thanks again frontierguy I love it when i save $ doing the job myself with expertise behind my efforts. I love these forums!!!!! Later, kwright39
