With that code I would check the intake manifold gasket. It has to be a vaccum leak making the mixture lean out. Get a can of Ether or such and spray it around the intake manifold and see if the motor revs, if it does there is your leak.
Reply:you have a bad mass air flow sensor i have fixed many of these, also only replace with one from nissan as aftermarket ones are junk,
Reply:check for a bad plug or wire or if a injector is sticking.or a vacume leak but that usaully sets both codes, check for o2 sensors switching
