tune up Question

are you supposed to adjust the valves on maximas or what. Im getting some ticking. Its either the valves or maybee could be the injectors ticking. Either way its about time for a tune up with 140k

It's most likely the injectors... Clean your TB, change out plugs, use seafoam, and add some injector cleaner when you fill up with PREMIUM gas

As far as injector cleaner goes, use BG44K, you most likely will have to order it online, but its good stuff.

Also, when changing your plugs make sure you use platinum plugs.
