my pathy is at 174,180

as far as i know with the power switch it lets the gear change at a higher RPM than in the auto mode, normally when mine comes on i jus use the kinkdown switch to come out of it, but i has happened to me when i move off and when first gear revs above 2500rpm the light will come on and it well rev to about 3500 and it will change

I always thought it was a free download...
PM me a name and address and I'll send you a CD.

did u get to flush the transmission, prolly that my remedy the problem

Sounds like you have a valve guide/body or piston ring problem. A quart of oil a week is a lot!!!!
It sounds like someone needs to look at the top end. Can you do a compression test??
B
i can do the test but i dont have the tools to do it and its expensive to do it a garage worse the dealer. I wanted to re service again and see wat happen caus normally it starts to burn the oil when it wants to be serviced, and i wanted to change the plugs and the fuel filter
-
blue smoke typically means oil, but I have seen it being a bad mixture also, but I would start by watching your oil consumption, but for the idle area, I would say check cap, rotor, wires, plugs, then move the IAC solenoid, TPS, MAF, or fuel filter sometimes does that crap to the idle, but if you are missing like crazy revving and you got blue smoke, I am guessing somewhere you might have some oil getting into the chamber, but I could be wrong, lets hope so!
Well I know in terms of the oil consumption I have to top up a qrt of oil like every week or so. I know the tps and idle sensor is working and I think the o2 should be working
-
i did some tests on the ECM, in the mode to check the O2 sensor the sensor is working ok, the throttle position sensor is working fine and when i checked the air fuel mixture it is running lean, but i know tat my intake hose has crystallized rite after the MAF but i taped it over as the hose is very hard to find in Jamaica so will that cause the misfire and lean mixture. When i was testing the mixture u have to have the rev over 2000rpm it was missing like crazy and alot of blue smoke was coming off the exhaust. so would tat mean its running lean or rich
-
The green light flashing indicates that the O2 sensor is going into closed loop mode. Read the info about the Mode 1 check in the FSM. It tells you all about it. If the engine is stumbling like you say, then I would say MAF as Tungsten suggested or O2 sensor.
oh ok thanks for the advice, i wiggled around the MAF wire and didnt notice any difference i started to wiggle the idle sensor tats the one near to the firewall on the left side and i noticed the rev getting smooth but it was idling high, does that mean the sensor is faulty
-
i noticed on my 90 pathy SE when it is idling it is idling rough, and when you touch the accel. pedal the missing would get worse and the ECU green light would blink on and off. When drivin on the road the van would run really rich as the accelation would be very slow and there tends to be a lack of power. The only time when this lack of pwer disappear is when driving late at night when the temperture is very cool. An help on what could cause this would be appreciated
-
vg33's and I believe vg30's are prone to cracked manifolds. If the crack gets big enough air will be sucked in, and since the ecu reads there as being too much air it will increase the fuel mixture causing your engine to run really rich. Cracked manifold should be fairly easy to notice, there will be an audible tick, but I figured it was worth mentioning.
edit; burning oil generally causes blue smoke
oh ok thanks, for the edit
-
black smoke is normally oil is being burned along wit the fuel so u shuld check ur head gaskets for any leaks there, caus if there is a leak it can cause a loss of power and poor performance, check it out and let me know
-
If it has a little sticker it probably has it, run the vin number to see original equipment, do a burnout on some gravel and see if you have 1(open) or 2(LSD) ruts.
there is a orange sticker at the top of the diff
-
At least it wasn't like mine. There was a poor attempt at fixing it in there as well...You can see the expanding foam they put in the void on the left. A memeber here fixed the whole in the floor but it had moved into the structure of the body, so it cost me 500 dollars to have it all fixed.
oh wow i definately have to check mine caus i see a burned spot on my carpet but it more in the center of the floorboard on my side

thanx a lot guys

hi my name is chris, i'm from Jamaica. I have a 1990 Nissan Pathfinder SE. I have it a little over a year now. I jus started to do some work on it now.
-
It's good if you don't mind blinding other people at night. The stock headlight housings aren't designed with HID bulbs in mind, so the focus point and beam distribution end up scattering light everywhere. You might check on headlight laws in your state.
i live in jamaica so we dont really have any law as pertainin to HID or what we can and cant do with the headlights. But if the HID kits are plug and play what is the sense of them making bulbs that fit the 1990 Pathfinders.
-
i wanted to install a HID kit on my pathfinder, i wanted to know from you guys if u think tat it is a gud idea or not???????

in terms of draining the transmission cooler how do u go about doin that on 1990
