Why does my pulsar shake when taking off from the lights?
When taking off from the lights the car struggled for power and slowly crept up to 60 and any time I stopped at lights the car would shake like it was about to cut out, although never did, and I found that throwing it into neutral reduced it but didn’t completely eliminate it.
What was the problem with the N16 Pulsar?
Other issue with N16’s was the coolant leaking through the porous throttle body and destroying the idle motor, and at times frying the ECU. Scan the ECU and note fault code/s.

The N16 has a coil pack design. Hey man, I used to drive one N16 a while back. That sounds like it’s gone to limp mode.

What causes a Nissan Pulsar to blow head gasket?
If it takes a while to fire then likely poor fuel pressure probably from a failing fuel pump. If the engine struggles to turn its more likely to be water in one of the cylinders and thus a blow head gasket. I’ve heard the MAF can do this, but not so sure.
