Nissan what? What engine size? Don't just say 4 cyl. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Maybe you just need to go back to the car and get some accurate information. You are asking for very specific information about an engine but can't seem to supply accurate information. They never made a 4 cylinder Maxima ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Yeah, you got the engine size wrong on that too. It's a 2.4. This just has a basic distributor type ignition system. Use a spark tester to see if you are getting spark on that cylinder. If you are and the plug isn't cracked, then do a compression test on that cylinder and verify injector pulse. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Another thing to look out for is a leaking intake gasket on those, especially around the intake runner on number 4. Pretty common problem. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

compression is at 150, got spark, voltage to injector, with my stethoscope I'm not getting ticking on the injector until I bring the rpm's up a bit but it seems to be intermittent. possibility a week and or bad injector

What are the ohms on all the injector coils? Is your injector losing control or power when it doesn't sound like it is working? Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.
