Did you already install that? Unfortunately that KS is fake. If that's already on your car thank your lucky stars it hasn't FUBAR'd your car. Check out my experience with the fake eBay KS:

*edit* also - just think about it. How/why could somebody sell a part that costs $150 for less than a third of that? It makes absolutely no sense they could be genuine. Either way though glad it seemed to work out for ya but my experience with them was awful. It makes it worse for us because our knock sensors are so hard to get to. All the 4th gen guys it's no skin off their backs because its a 10 minute job for them. They're really good fakes physically but if you compare them and their packaging to the OEM ones you can spot the differences.

 

No, James not the same seller you dealt with; Car Parts 4 Less is the seller I bought it off. But genuine or not; I seem to have the same experience that the 4th & 5th gens have no issues after 1 week.

 

Too bad you can't buy anything from internetautomart anymore.

 

I got a new OEM o2 sensor last week for $30 shipped.. It's about $100 more from Nissan. But it's not some BIN where hundreds have been sold.

James is right about that being a fake. You can tell just from the label. Ink is way too dark and bold for that to be a real label.

 

What happened to him?

 

not a clue, but he sure had a great store for us 3rd gens.

 

check out partgeek.com; I found some rebuilt GB fuel injectors for $26.....

 

i want to change the fuel injectors on my 5.5 gen i saw some instructions but couldnt find a writeout for my car can anyone help me out? i have misfire on cyl 2 and random misfire codes and i changed my coil for cyl 2, 3 times within 2 weeks with oem coils i still kept the bad ones so i guess they actually arent bad lol. so i guess its the injector on cyl 2 idk how to change it. and should i change all 6 it can get pricey as the oem go for like 140 on courtesy and around 70 for a beck/arnley one and around 400 for a rc set what you guys think oem or pepboys is fine? i heard changing just one makes the car run uneven i was thinking since i dont haqve so much money maybe just change the front 3 since its on cyl 2? what you guys think i need all the input i can get

 

On my VE. I didn't have any luck, just changing one, so I ended up changing all of them. If you want the document I had my mech. use, pm me. I have it in word format. If you're gonna change them all, you're also gonna need:

(1) knock-sensor harness 24079-96E00

(1) Knock Sensor 22060-30P00

(2) lower manifold gaskets

(1) Throttle body gasket

And some hi temp silicone gasket maker. For the coolant housing.

NOPI, has OEM quality injectors for our SE cars for $42 ea. by Python, AKA Venom (same company); there is a core exchange. The one's for the SE (DOHC) are not in the online catalog; you'll have to call Bobby. I just ordered (6), he said they're all new. Go figure.

Is that your S2K?

 

thanks for the help man!

 

You can also try and find some used 350z injectors.....

 

i really dont want to use used injectors lol cause my car only has 79k miles ONLY and i have bad fuel injectors and the past owner said he only used premium and so do i so if they can go bad so quick then lol yea. i think ima be gettign autozone ones for 70 or 80 i forget which price and buying all 6 i heard good stuff about the autozone ones cause the oem ones from courtesy is 136 omg lol that would be mad money

 

Before replacing your suspect feul injectors you should really try putting this in your tank;

Costs pennies(relatively) no parts to open/remove. If this fails, then replace 'em.

 

i used gumont injector cleaners in my max still have misfire and random multiple misfire codes.

 

You can use the TC-W3 stuff all the time. If you use it the 1st time and notice maybe a little difference, keep using it. It may slowly bring your injector back to life. Because the gumout is a cleanser only, it shouldn't be used regularly.

I use TC-W3 now and I have no injector issues, and my car has since gotten way quieter because of the TC-W3. Read the thread and you'll see that's a common observation.

 

nah its my friends, i have a 07 n 00 max

 

Dog chasing it's tail @AZ!

 

I would swap injector locations b4 buying new injectors just to confirm...If it was Me!

 

yea makes sense cmax cylinder 2 has been getting misfire mad times so i believe its the injector my dad been driving the car and siad the gas mileage is worse then it seems it should be, sorta sucks too but idk if he just complaining cause he likes driving his civic but hates driving his truck unless he going fishin :P lol and o yea i forgot ^ how come i should change my knock sensor and gaskets and stuff? if im changing the injectors?

 

Are you positive those are OEM coilpacks? If someone stating changing the KS it's only because you'regonna be in there.....You had any KS CEL codes did you? You should try installing all your coilpacks with dielectric grease @ the sparkplug boot seal.....What kind of plugs are you running BTW?Check out partgeek.com dude!

 

Because if the knock sensors bad it will send bad signals to the ECU; and the ECU sends erratic codes to the fuel system and makes it seem to be a bad injector. In fact since you have had injector problems before & you only have 79K miles, I would change it first before injectors. If it's located beneath the upper & lower IM; then your gonna pull those & you have to replace the gaskets when you do.

 

o man sounds like alot of fun..not lol well idk if it ever had fuel injector issues just misfires on the same cylinder i only had the car for around 4 months and 500 miles maybe my dad been using it to get it to pass inspection for me. i been working on the car tho like so far i cleaned up the paint, changed the tails to some 00-01 se tails and i did an oil change, coils for misfire cyl 2, cleaned my filter and baby stuff
