Fuel Rail Cracks at mounting bracket, 2nd time.
Long story short:
This is my 2nd time having fuel leak while I was racing on the track. I smelled gas when I was racing hard. Popped the hood, fuel was leaking at the back side of the fuel rail. Both cracked on the exact same spot.
First Set of fuel rail: (Stock)
2nd Set of fuel rail: (Bought it used)
Finally, called Nissan dealer and found out Nissan has an updated part #. The new one is beefier on the mounting bracket. I am hoping that will fix the problem.
Anyone have experienced something like that? They need to make a recall on this!!
