Just looking to see how busy this place is?   I have an 86.5 se v6 barn find that I need info on and it will be for sale soon enough.

Am I in the best place for this?

I am here for both!    This Pathfinder fell in My lap and is to nice to crush! I am not a Nissan Guy as You can probably tell By My name. But if it runs on dead dinosaurs and sits on rubber I hate to see it go to the crusher.    I am not sure how I can contribute but I have had a box full of tools and a lost 10mm since I could walk. If I can pass this on to a person that will love and treat it like a red headed step  child than I feel My place is good.

I should have all the new parts in it this week and will get more pics. 

I would like to see it go to a good home.

It has new SEARS wear master tires from the late 90s . I need to replace them as the truck has not been on the road since 04. 

I am looking for glass for the rear hatch and drivers door.  I can buy new but would prefer used.

I will post more this week !   I just got the clutch working and am working on the fuel system.  the truck has not run in 15 years so I still need to flush the tank and lines . I just installed the new pump and cleaned the tank. I have pulled the plugs and put a little oil in the cylinders.  I am waiting on the new rad . I did have it running with a little gas down the carb but just enough to know it will run. It still has a filter from the dealer so it was dealer serviced by the old owner till the end. It was parked in a barn in 04 when the old owner got sick. When the owners kids started cleaning the property  they sold it to a friend of mine and when it was in his lot kids smashed the back and drivers windows. I have new glass on the way next week .

I do need a hood as something big hit the hood and trashed it and the rad.  I would like to say I would like to see this pathfinder go to a person that will appreciate it and treat it like any old ride that has made it this long should. I do not wish for anyone to think that I am a troll or a flipper that is just after a buck.  If I can help with advice or an eye on parts or a ride in My area drop Me a line.   I have been in the game for over 30 years and will do My best to help.

Well this thing is just tons o fun!  Clutch was a snap new master and all is good.  Rad was a breeze after I got the rad cradle straitened out.

On to the fuel system #!@%$#%&^   New pump new filter flushed tank and replaced all rubber lines. First I had a low voltage problem that I think was a ground and then I found I switched the polarity on the pump !  Fixed that and it ran like a champ! Reinstalled the breather ( has to be the worst design ever)  and let it idle in shop foe half an hour. Stat opened and the cooling system seems good. I set it on all four sears tires and backed it out of the shop.  Clutch seems great and it idled for another 20 min while I swept up. I jumped in the captains seat and threw it in gear and headed across My parking lot . First gear lots of snot (NO PROB)  Second gear and it dies!   No fuel pressure?   Go back to the pump and Have only 8 volts?

So I ask the Nissan masters.   Where is My low voltage problem coming from?   I have checked grounds and fuses .  Relays seem to test good.

This ride has been sitting for 16 years.  Is this an easy fix Or do I take it out to the range and put a mannequin with a Trudeau mask in the drivers seat and shoot the day lights out of it for views on Youtube?

Sounds like a fault in the wiring to me. I would start by checking the voltage on the pump side of the relay to ensure it isn't burned contacts. If it is good there, but 8v at the pump, I would inspect the harness and connectors for damage or corrosion.

Damn gremlins !!!  Pulled pump and works fine on the bench!  Test the plug and got 12.3V ?  Reinstall pump and it starts up like there was no problem .   Pulled it out and let it run to temp. Ran it around My 11 acres tested the 4x4 and made sure it will shift through all the gears .It all seems fine?  I should have the glass by fri . I still need a hood if anyone has one and I will charge up the AC tomorrow.  It will be looking for a new home so I will list it here first.

Update!   All glass is in and all works as it should.  AC is cold and works as should as well as heat .  next to the old tires I think it will pass a safety inspection .

I have been on the phone today with a local Nissan dealer and I  think it may live in there show room.  I will let them have it for $2000 Canadian.

Should I be asking for more?
