Best thing to do is go to an Auto Zone and have them scan your truck for any DTC codes. Auto Zone scan free of charge, there is just to many things that can cause the engine issues your running through such as detonation during acceleration due to timing issues to lack of fuel pressure. Good luck and keep me posted, be glad to help you get your truck running 100%

2008 Nissan Champ 1400 is jerking and cuts off when I accelerate to 50 kph. After it cut off it take time to start again.

Question edited for clarity.
Question moved to Nissan.

There is some ideas in the link, but you need to find someone in South Africa that has a scan tool computer. Dirty injector from bad fuel is the most likely. Check the spark plugs as well.

It might be a bad computer. Or someone has altered the governor setting on the car. the governor usually cuts acceleration; Most times even power to a vehicle

When accelerating fast the engine cuts out suddenly then returns to normal multiple times. If I try to accelerate at a lower pace then it works fine. It feels like an electronic problem

Engine ECU is provided with a high RPM ignition cut off. Perhaps that is what is confusing you. When you accelerate at a fast rate, probably you get higher RPM's and the ECU cuts the ignition to protect the engine from damage.
