Looking at getting injectors with low miles on em for my 95 s14..just wondering if injectors off a 96-98 would work and everything be plug and play?

Thanks

Yup. Same.

Just make sure to replace the Orings and lube the injector before install.

You mean lube the rings or injectors themselves? Like I read you could use vaseline on the rings.

Thanks for fast response

91-98 all the same. You can use 93-01 Altimas as well.

Vasoline on rubber o-rings will rot the rubber in no time. Kind of why you cant use a latex condom with oil-based lube when you're doing the deed. Use a waterbased lube for the injector and it'll slide right in and not to any damage to the injector/o-ring. Ive honestly used KY before and it worked just fine, lol.

I dab of drop of WD40 on them. Never had a problem, it dries fast enough to not leave a residue.

What about using motor oil, is that bad? Also, a friend of mine just took some of the fuel lingering in the rail and dabbed it on the o-ring to lube it up on his SR. Then again, he has a ton of problems so I dunno how good of an idea that was.

I dip them in motor oil all the time when I install injectors, works fine everytime.

Alright I'll be sure to skip the vaseline...good call guys. Thanks.

Hey on another subject my new nissan distributor cap and ign. rotor came in this morning, so I put em on shortly after. Everything went smooth but I noticed some differences between the old and new rotor. The new one had like this thin layer of black epoxy looking stuff on the tip of the conductor..I mean the top metal part of the rotor. The old one didn't. I thought it was some sorta protective tape or something at first, so I tried gently prying edge up on the bottom. Didn't peel up and infact a piece of it flaked off about the size of a grain of salt (no biggie), so I assumed it was there on purpose and for good and left well alone.

Car started and drove fine..and I pulled each plug wire to make sure all plugs fired. Also do any of you pack the wire terminals on the top of the cap for moisture? I skipped on that..since i don't plan to spray under the hood any time soon.

Thanks again

I always apply Permatex Dielectric grease to the boots (inside and out) on the plugs and distributor cap boots.
