Engine Mechanical problem
2002 Nissan Maxima 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic
Our maxima has about 87000 miles has started clattering and the diagnostic indicated a ITC Valve the needs cleaning or replacement and, I think, cam shaft timing out of phase. How difficult is it to replace the ITC Vavle. I think that is the Intake Timing Control Valve.
