thanks, I forgot to mention that

 

Just finished watching the vid.. Cool vid btw.. Did u put that spacer that fell off back on the bolt before you started the car??

 

It wasn't my car

I was busy, but the other two guys took it apart again and found the missing plastic spacer in the lower collector. All good now.

Also, just goes to show you that with even THREE people trying to be careful and follow directions, mistakes can still happen. Makes me wonder how many others that have installed the plenum spacer have had the same thing happen to them.. there was no indication of any problems so who knows....

I just finished a power steering flush vid and installed an inline Magnefine power steering / ATF filter. I'll be uploading it soon

 

same here - changed my gaskets out this past weekend after changing the plugs 2 weeks ago and finding oil on one of them, no biggie, the gaskets are $17 a piece

 

the f'n screws snap easy

i almost sh@t myself when i snapped one. was able to get it out, they are $4 a piece from nissan, or you can go to home depot and get one for $0.79

 

Could you please tell me the screw spec so i can replace it without opening just to take a screw out/ not have to order from nissan.. I have snapped one of those too ..

 

It's a metric M6 screw. Get one that's 25mm

 

well, lets just be glad we got weak valve cover bolts cuz if they were strong, something else woulda cracked and woulda cost more than 4 bucks.

 

so what? my head is gettin confused with what i have to order. Well i just bought valve cover/gasket (built-in) from this member, i thought that will be it! but i have to order another gasket?

anyone can clear this up what have to be replaced?

Thanks

Yup I now realize im in the same boat. Is this not covered under warranty? My warranty book seems to read like almost all the gaskets are covered.

 

ok so from what i gather is the vavle cover gaskets where the valvecover mates up with the top of your head you can buy, now the gaskets that go around the shaft that comes out of your head for the spark plug is what is leaking and you cannot buy that gasket you have to buy the hole valve cover from nissan? so either way if you have oily spark plugs you have to replace the whole valve cover and valve cover gasket?

 

valve cover, the outer edge gasket may be reused if you want, but for the money and hassle do them also

 

i had replaced them like three weeks ago thought it was the problem and i didnt know the vavle covers had t he rubber o rings around the spark plug shaft if i woulda known that i would of done it then

 

priced the vavle covers at my nissan stealership todya and they are 208 a peice so 416 with out tax theres gotta be a better place to get these thats freakin rediulous for valvecovers

 

www.1stAAANissanParts.com has cheapest price for valvecovers.

 

^ hey thanks man thats a whole hundred bucks i saved buying from that site

 

I sealed mine with RTV

 

Please let me know when you do the flush video...i need to do this as well

It's up and ready to be watched
