Test that IACV before you buy a new one.

Nissan recommended 3M injector cleaner that goes inline on your fuel line and the car runs on it til the can is gone. There is def. a night and day difference after doing an injector flush. Car runs better, smoother, and with better gas mileage.

I did send out a set of 370cc injectors to RC Engineering once and I was very please with their service. They clean them, flow them, balance them, put new tips on them and send you all the paperwork.

You have to understand that with our injectors its pretty hard for them to get "dirty". They have built in screens on them. If anything you could just pull them out and throw them in some gas if theres something on the screens.

I've already un-plugged it while the car was running and it didn't do anything. Not sure if that means it's working or not...

I'm pretty sure I own one of three SE-R's in my town. One of them has been parked in some guys yard down the street from me for god knows how long. A couple GA16 cars at the local yards, but that's it. So, no go there.:o

Im not sure if it really works all that well on every car but you can get an injector service at walmart. The concentrate goes to the brake booster vacuum line into the fuel rail...and you can just ask them not to put the other stuff in the tank. Its $20.

I would just do a seafoam for half that. It's a low mileage JDM motor, which was put in not too long ago. I believe they used the USDM IACV and injectors, which both had 170k + miles on them.

Instead of popping $130 I recommend to see your dealer. Ask them to plug your Nissan to their diagnosticthing.

Overhere you pay 90 euro per hour and you don't have to repair, you just can get the car back, np. Just say so before u let them diagnose, should be enough.

Also I recommend waiting for it, so you always can say after your thrid cup of free coffee, ok thats enough, I want my car back.

Dc scotty has info on were to send your injecters. Contact him. He has been using the same place for a while. you get the paper work and test results. Before and after number and all. Its not expensive either.

It's not that serious. I'll eventually figure it out. Got a used IACV on the way right now. If that doesn't work, we'll try the injectors or something else I haven't figured out yet.
