I just pulled the codes on my maxima and I am really only curious about one, which is 0210 - Fuel injector system left bank lean.

So does this mean that one of the injectors on the left bank (closest to firewall?) is being restricted for some reason? if so, how do I determine what the problem is.

Ive got time all day and plan on taking it apart to look at the injectors, but fast responses are always appreciated.

What other codes did you get? It may be related to something else.

Left bank should be the front bank. Left and right is looking at the engine from the back of it, as if you were sitting in a RWD car.

It could be that the injectors are a bit dirty. Basically the O2 sensor is seeing that side being a little lean so it could be any one of the front injectors if that's the only issue.

The other codes i pulled were the knock sensor (of course) and the rear heated O2 sensor code.

Now that you brought it to my attention, that bad O2 could be pulling the injector code.

Where is the rear heated O2? I really hope its not on that header next to the firewall

The rear O2 is behind the cat.
