Engine misses when wet at idle
#45
Hello all! I have a 1990 nissan maxima GXE and am experiencing the same problem! YearOfTheGus i can say man is that if you can garage keep ur car it helps significantly! On my car when i pull out the spark plug for #1 the rpm's don't drop and all the rest do this points to a dirty injector and will be shortly replaced! I will try some of the ideas that have gone spoken on this thread and if i can figure anything out i will let ya'll know! I will be taking engine apart to the head to replace all gaskets as i have one hell nasty oil leak! I have to agree w/the ground being bad on ur car somewhere! I can't tell you enough times that the most complicated problem was resolved by finding a bad ground in the most uncommon place you would have thought to even look! So look hard as i will be too and hope we can fix this most frustrating dilemma!

Kudos for making the attempt, and not posting "cool car" fifteen times.
If you have a concern that needs immediate attention, we have a newbie question thread, located at the top of the 3rd gen section.

I took my smacks like a man when I first joined up . Take yours.

The problem wasn't the injectors, although I ended up replacing those a few months ago. The cheap ebay air filter that I got with a CAI kit ended up rusting, and let moisture into the intake, which caused the MAF to flip out. Replaced that and problem was gone.
