2/21/21, turning on the ignition created a severely rough idle, the auto could not maintain "running status", a severe fuel odor ensued with blue-black smoke billowing out of the exhaust pipe. towed to the nissan dealer in shingle springs, ca. per the dealer evaluation: #2 fuel injector replacement and "o" rings. the mechanic found metal shavings on the fuel injector and it continued with blue-black smoke per the exhaust while running. may require new fuel sensor if this does not resolve. we purchase all our fuel from the folsom, ca. sams club. 2/11/14 was the date of the last gas purchase. 2/20/14 we attempted to purchase fuel for another vehicle but found the station closed during inspection by a company called tankology. could there be a relationship with metal shavings in the fuel, consequently creating this break down? to date we have spent $624.00 in repairs, $150.00 in car rental. we would appreciate your evaluation and response. thank you. *tr
While at a stop, gas fumes collected and seeped into the passenger cabin. the dealer replaced the fuel valve and evaporator canister, but the problem still recurred.*ak check engine light came on and the gas pump kept shutting off when filling even though tank was not full. smell possibly came from fuel injectors on rear bank. *tt *jb
