TIRES

I PURCHASED TWO NEW NANKANG TIRES FOR THE FRONT WHEELS ON MY 1991 NISSAN STANZA ON 8/11/05. ON 8/16/05 WHILE DRIVING TOWARD WASHINGTON ON OREGON I-84, THE LEFT FRONT TIRE EXPERIENCED A BLOWOUT OF THE SIDEWALL, CAUSING THE CAR TO CLIMB THE CENTER DIVIDER. I MANAGED TO BRING THE CAR UNDER CONTROL WITHOUT ROLLING, BUT I INJURED MY BACK AND LEG IN THE PROCESS. *NM

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

FUEL INJECTORS ARE LEAKING GAS FROM THE INJECTOR SEALS. MY BROTHER OWNS A GEO PRIZM WITH A TOYOTA MOTOR IN IT WITH ALMOST 300,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM EVER. MY NISSAN STANZA ONLY HAS 133,000 ON IT AND I HAVE SEEN COMPLAINTS ON WEB FORUMS ABOUT 240SX WITH SAME KA24E SOHC MOTOR HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH LESS MILEAGE ON THEM. THEY SWITCHED TO THE KA24DE DOHC ENGINE IN LATER YEAR STANZA'S. I THINK THEY ALSO DID SO ON THE 240SX TOO, BUT NOT SURE WHICH YEARS THIS HAPPENED. I KNOW THE STANZA USED KA24E MOTOR FROM 1990 TO 1992 PRODUCTION YEARS AND THEN SWITCHED TO THE KA24DE AFTER WHICH COULD POSSIBLY HAVE DIFFERENT INJECTOR SETUP THEN THE KA24E WHICH IS WHAT I HAVE. *JB

I AM CURRENTLY HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY FEUL TANK LEAKING. I LOOKED ON LINE AND NOTICED THE CARS IN THE NORTHERN PART OF THE U.S. WERE RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM. WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY ALL CARS WERE NOT RECALLED AND IF IT CAN STILL BE REPLACED. THANK-YOU.
