i was driving to work this morning and pulled out of the stret i live on on to the main road an there was this loss of power like i hit the brakes. i got up the road about 5 miles and sitting in traffic it died, i started it back up and drove about another mile it did it agian, so i turned around when i got back to the neighbor hood i put it down into 2nd and had it at about 4000, 4500 rpm (to see if it was a miss) it died agian. so i dont know if one of the coil stem is bad or maybe a gas pedal sensor i say that because when i got back on the gas i had to go almost half throttle to get it goin. so its a 05' frontier nismo 4.0L any advice would be greatly Appreciated, Adam

Sounds like it is a fuel delivery problem.. New fuel pump? Crud in the tank blocking in-tank filter?

Is your check engine lite on?
Low on fuel - possible inaccurate fuel level reading??
How many miles on vehicle?

NEVER spray any cleaner into the throttle assembly!!!
NEVER manually open the throttle!!!
To clean the throttle,turn ign. on, (eng. off), put trans in D or 1st(man), have someone or something hold gas pedal to floor, spray cleaner on a rag and wipe out throttle chamber. DO NOT spray into throttle chamber!!
Then perform IAVL procedure.
