how do i fix this problem?

Pull the head and replace the valve guides.

lol

Yup.

dont you mean valve seals sir :wink:

I would replace both, if nissans have both and they are both replaceable. Eather way your going to end up pulling apart your whole valve train… Its a prefect time for a port and polish / new valvetrain :smiley:

Right. :slight_smile:

the valves are impossible to get off! loll i tried and cant get them off i broke
a socket wrench trying it

LOL
