Some say not needed. I guess if you can't find them then that makes sense. I am trying to find them, so does anyone have a good source for a fuel injector pintle (need 6)? Since this is my second GLE that was purchased new, I am not sure if these are stock. They look like Beck/Arnley? PN on injector says "FBJC101" and there is a "001 2924" under it. I sent a request to Mr Injector on ebay just now. My car is in the driveway..... not on the road.

Should I leave them off or buy $$$$ injectors.....


2003 Maxima GLE, 149K-Auto.

 

Or you can look for some used 350z Injectors, and mine didnt come with the little brown thing in the picture....

 

I have 6 fuel injectors from a 2003 Maxima with 150k miles. PM me if your interested.

 

Thanks all, the Mr Injector guy had the, 6 for $20. Bosch Type 3 part, guess it fits. Caps on the way......

 

What do these Pintle caps do ??

 

injectors are cheap as hell, glad you made the right choice and just bought new ones.

 

I had to replace a few like 10 yrs ago, I got them from napa for something like that, $20.

 

Damn thats a good price....

 

Man, I meant the nylon/plastic pintle caps are 6 for $20, but in the middle of pressure checking, one is leaking bad. I was wondering why one of the port areas in the head after the manifold runner on bank 2 was very clean, and the fuel trim (LTFT Bank 2 (-8) was negative. So now I am ordering all the injectors from some place called partsg**k. AND, I am doing the Home Depot catch can thing. I loose a 1/2 qt of oil a week (I like thrust, "I'm giving her all I got"). The pinging will most likely stop, too? And it will fix the rough idle? Is it really worth installing external seals on an injector when the internals wear, too? I think not!!!!! (I guess I am sometimes too cheap and like to do things twice). After I clean the manifold, install new injectors, and install the oil catching device, I will see what I have.

 

ouch hope you got to it before doing any ring/piston wall damage, make sure you do a compression test while everything is apart!!!

 

My OEM's didn't have that nor did my 2 most recent sets.
