Message	I would really encourage you to take the extra step in sweat equity. Pull the plenum, delete the water lines, and shave off the excess metal "humps" on the plenum which block off your injectors, including the "bridge" that you're currently having issues with. The net result is a MUCH cleaner look, no future plenum coolant leaks, and easy access to all the injectors. I'm convinced Nissan engineered the plenum this way in order to bump up future dealer service. There's no reason those metal humps should be there.
