AT 89 S13 Bogs when gas pedal is pressed - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I have an 89 Auto S13 that barely starts unless i mash the gas pedal and then if I put it in Drive or Reverse it immediately bogs down and dies.
If I do get it into drive; it refuses to move (no power?)
If I get it into drive and press the gas; nothing happens besides keeping it barely idling.
Before it did this- I could drive it normally and it would randomly bog down when I pressed the gas; making intersections a scary endeavor.
I have to crank it about 30 times before it decides to actually start up.
In Neutral or Park it idles fine and I can rev it without any issues.

What the hell is going on.

Try pressing in the clutch first next time.

Starting to think between TPS or fuel pump.
