Around the engine. . .

I have a new problem. . . I just changed my oil (I use 10w30) and fliter (k&n) replace my old cheap $20 cone air filter with a stock oem replacement K&n air filter. . . now i have strange sounds coming from the engine 1of them is a broke stud and i cant get to it to replace it. so i think im just going to plug that hole with some thermosteel. . .

THERE IS VIDEO but i got pulled over by the cops while doing it lol for doing a 3 point turn before a stop sign. anyhow vid will be posted or linked since i don't know how to post it here. I just want to know what this noise is. . .

i THINK you can just get this then cut and splice it.... i can double check if the plug from the Z will fit on the sensor from the Maxima.

Junk yard has many cars with decent sensors/wiring, cutting and resplicing will become your new art dealing with this 1989-92 connector sealing bellows that tend to dry rot and expose your wiring.....shoot for upgrading your wiring to the 93-94 VG style connectors cause they're simply more reliable and durable......
