I have a 1989 Nissan Sentra that is hesitating/missing + rough idle (dies at stop signs). Thing is, it does very well going up steep, long hills -- lots of power, no problems. But when I ease up on the accelerator, or on the flats or slight downhills, it starts jerking/hesitating/missing. If I floor it, then it kicks back in and is fine for a while. Also, it sometimes dies at stop signs. It has new spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor, oxygen sensor, fuel filter. Ideas?

problems. But when I ease up on the accelerator, or on the flats or slight
downhills, it starts jerking/hesitating/missing in an inconsistent manner. If I
floor it, then it kicks back in and is fine for a while. Also, it sometimes dies at
stop signs. It had been running great, then I parked it for the winter, and the
problems started when I started using it again. I thought it was bad gas, but
did fuel treatment, refilled the tank, and problem persists. It has new spark
plugs, spark plug wires, distributor, oxygen sensor, fuel filter.
