It sounds like you may have a bad mass air sensor. I just had this same problem on my daughters 94 Nissan quest. I bought a rebuilt mass air sensor for about 100 dollars and installed it myself( its easy to install)... they wanted 600dollars for the sensor alone and 80 dollars to install it at the dealer. After installing this part the car ran great again. However you may want to take the car into a shop and have them diagnos the check engine codes to make sure that is the problem. I did this first on my daughters car. It costs between 75 to 100 dollars for a shop to do a complete diagnostic test on the car....then you will know what all of the problems are.
Hope this helps
