NissanNismoZ

i bought one from autozone that extends like an antenna but its still too big to fit in the fuel injector hole..so im stuck with the air intake hole.. it might be.. im just hoping it doesnt hurt anything. but trust me i dont plan on turning the engine over.. i know that's just asking for trouble if it gets into the cylinder.. its like the screw sticks to the valve or air intake walls when i get it on the magnet.. im glad its not water though. it really worried me.. thanks i'll keep it posted when i finally get it out of there. i appreciate it!

Okay.. so my 1995 nissan pathfinder had a miss to it.. so i had everything checked at a shop and they said it was the number 5 injector.. well. i took it back home and started the 'project' I look and find the number 5 injector under the intake..so i remove it (which was a pain! it had so many vacuum lines and sensors) and remove the injector. i check that i have the right screw for the fuel injector ( it was late so i continued it in the morning) and dropped the screw in the fuel injector hole. (AAAHHH!!!!) i get my mini flashlight and notice the valve is closed and water is standing in there..with the screw! So i have 2 questions.. i know i dont have the time or patience to remove the engine..or the tools.. Will the water harm the engine? (i had the hood closed and it rained last night..so i guess my luck it got wet in there) and any ideas o how to remove the screw? i bought the little magnet and slid it through the air intake hole and it pulled up with it but fell back down on the valve.. (remember the valve is closed) so i know its there..but where? i cant seem to slip the magnet past the valve.. i pulled the spark plug to see if i could do anything there..but still no luck. any ideas would be greatly appreciated! I really didnt expect a simple repair to turn into a project.. i want to do anything but start taking apart the engine.. thank you! - Cody
