  1. Anyone want to take my 88 Pathfinder, blown engine.  2 door model, v-6, 5 speed manual, 4x4.  I replaced the R-14 A/C with R134a, still in good shape other than the blown engine.  3" body lift kit comes with it but not install yet.  Looking to just get rid of the truck but do not want it to be sent to junk yard if possible.  Exterior body painted with Rhino liner black.  The truck is located in Orlando, FL.

     

    In case it was not implied, it is free to take.

  3. I bought my 88 pathfinder brand new and still own it today.  Look for rust under the hood near the vapor canister and ignition coil area.  Also I had to replace the power steering high pressure hose twice over the last 31 years.  Oil pressure switch is most likely the cause of most oil leaks, it is simple to replace.  Front disc replacement is a big pain since you need to repack the hubs when you replace them.  My 88 is a standard shift so I have to replace the clutch twice, not bad for 31 years of uses.  Also look for rust on the door near the windows weather strips, it seems water likes to sit there and eat at the metal.  I have a 2 door pathfinder, I do not see many of them around and I usually get offers on it monthly even though I do not have it for sale.  I did convert the old R12 A/C to the R34 system.  Pretty simple to do, only cost me $325 in parts from RockAuto.  I wish I had a better cool air intake system for it but I happy with how it still drives.  Weekend fun machine now.

  4. I have a 1988 Pathfinder, 4x4, two door.  The clutch pedal was not returning and sticking so I replaced both the master cylinder and slave cylinder and bleed the system.  Pedal felt great and shifted fine for a day and 1/2.  On my way home at a stop light, shift to 1st and take off fine, shift to 2nd fine then 3rd and the engine revs up and nothing catches, like it is in neutral.  I try all gears, same thing like it stuck in neutral.  I can shift into any gear easily but nothing catching engine on or off, just feels like it stuck in neutral.  Can a clutch go bad the fast? or could it be something else keeping it from engaging the gears?

  5. While I am waiting for the replacement temperature sensor and wires from RockAuto I am driving the truck with the wire not connected to the sensor, it seems to be driving better with it disconnected, what type of damage with this cause if any with it not connected. It is just a weekend vehicle now but I don't want to cause any permanent damage, I can live with the bad MPG since its just used a an extra vehicle on the weekends.
