The 90 Maxima I handed off to a friend for $100 is now returning to me, and if I cant get this fuel problem fixed, it'll be off to the wrecking yard, or dumped in a cornfield down in the meth belt. It drives, but horribly.

Apparently, there's spark on all six, but two cylinders have no fuel. What is the best place to begin diagnosing injector problems? Can the coils be easily checked for resistance like on the Q45?

That sucks Jesda. You should be able to switch injectors around to cylinders that are currently firing and see if the miss follows the suspect injector to that cylinder.

Ohm test the injectors. Just like the Q injectors.

If they ohm out, test continuity between the injector harness and the subharness connector......
