1. Knock Sensor
2. o2 sensor right front
3. EGR Control Solenied
4. Elecronic Fuel Injection

Gonna cost about $1000 to repair all of those, maybe cheaper but those are nissan's prices, I need to get them somewhere else that's cheaper.

I had a little something similar wrong with my old 93 240sx, a couple fuel injectors needed to be replaced and a couple o2 sensors needed to be replaced to.....Nissan was asking $2300, so I sold it, bought a max...

How in Gods good name is it going to cost that much? I would get a second opinion on that fuel injection theory.

I'd do the first three and see if there is still a fuel injection problem...

Don't bother with the KS yet - the O2 sensor might be setting it off. Fix the other stuff and then check to see if you have a ghost code a week or two later

Replace the O2 and EGR yourself. What's wrong with the fuel injection system? Go dump in some Chevron w/ Techron Fuel System cleaner in your gas tank or is it a fuel injector?

The KS code is being triggered by the O2 and EGR system errors. You most likely don't need it.

Put a new O2 sensor in it, clean out the EGR passages and clear the errors from your ECU. $90 bucks for the O2 and a few hours of labor to install it and clean your EGR system. Brings your $1000 quoted price down under $100 bucks and I bet your problems will be solved.

What code did you get that points you to "Electronic Fuel Injection"? And what are you fixing, replacing, repairing on the "Electronic Fuel Injection"?

Thanks everyone, you dudes are great I will try to do this myself, I'll pic up the sensor over the weekend.

I took it to Nissan and got it tested (costed $100) and they told me the E.F.I and the others were the problem.

I'll pick up the repair book for the Maxima over the weekend, any instructions on changing the sensors?

Scott, a little off topic.

Your screen name reminds me of an old rap group, Boogie Down Productions (if my memory is still intact).

Only 96 and up and I own a 95 max.

You can do it on a 95 also... My mechanic used it on mine when I first got the car

Or you can do it yourself for free... http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=104931
