4 Yellow Dot Injectors

I replaced all 6 of my Yellow dot injectors (out of a 94 Maxima) - 2 of them were bad.

I've got 4 good ones that I'll sell for forty bucks to someone who is working on the cheap (New ones cost 90-110 ea)

No guarantees of course -but this could get someone who is financially challenged back on the road for cheap.

Caveat -- 3 of them are one model - and 1 is an odd ball. But they are all pink with yellow dots. They worked well when removed..

I've even got 2 brand new still in the bag rubber seal its (For some reason when I bought the 6 new injectors - 2 of them had seal kits - and 4 did not). I had already bought new seals from Nissan so I don't need them.

My car has daytime running lights and the speedo is in KM. That's a sad state of affairs right there, but it gets better. My '88 GXE was rear ended three weeks ago. Replaced it with a '92 GXE (Canadian model, hence the DRL's). I bought it used with 174000km on it. Test drive went OK, but my mechanic said the tranny was slipping in 2nd gear and the #3 injector wasn't always injecting especially at idle. Too late, already paid for the car (note to self #1 - let mechanic check car first next time, before bending over and taking it in the *&#). Anyway, decided to start small. One headlight burned out. Spent $10 for a bulb, put it in, turned on headlights - now notice the other bulb is out. Hmmm..spend $10 put new bulb in other side, now notice other just replaced light is out. WTF?? Flick the switch on and off and notice one light on, one light off, both on, one off, one on etc etc., plus this black box under the dash starts buzzing like a nest of angry hornets...pull the box out, call the parts guy and he says it's a Daytime Running Light Module. $180 CDN. OK, don't wanna be pulled over for headlight out, buy the part throw it in, and VIOLA!!! Both headlights work ---- until I flick the high beams on, then it's the same old #*&!. DUH, musta been the $70 headlight switch instead (note to self #2 - let mechanic solve mystery headlight problems before bending over and taking in the &*# from the local Stealership). I have yet to buy the headlight switch, but I sure as hell hope that solves the problem, or my kids will end up standing on the bumper each holding a Coleman lantern when I drive at night. So anyway, how does this relate to the injectors? I could have spent the $70 on the switch, and the other wasted $200 (180 for the DRL module and $20 for two unneeded bulbs) could have got me a new #3 injector for my car. So I won't be greedy - all 4 injectors would be nice, but I'd settle for just one. In fact, since money and I are so easily parted, I'd even pay for shipping, since it would have to come all the way to Canada. Oh, and if anyone needs a DRL module, I have an extra one.

I think flow capabilities. The red is a higher flow injector.
BTW try to make sure the color dots match yours when you replace em. The dots signify resistance.

UH, No.
They are all side feed like most nissans.
94 GXE

92-94 SE All the same

89-92 GXE


Do you see any top feeds among them?
I sure as hell don't
