  1. Banned and for his obsessive need to schedule everything
  2. ^ might be on to something < turned work off again v needs to do the same
  3. Forum was offline for a couple minutes for a software & security update. It's possible that you may notice some things behave slightly different than they did before.
  4. You might get lucky and find someone that has a spare set, but in the meantime perhaps this will help? Nissan 1987-1995 Pathfinder - Control Arm Bushing Kit
  5. You need s new dealer.... I meant seriously, they could've even find the fusible link harness on a part diagram?
  6. Sorry don't know the part number, but the same thing happened to me once before. All I did was call the Nissan dealer and ask for the fusible links at the battery, they had no problem finding it.
  7. Changed the oil, after a run back to Autozone when the second filter came in.
  8. Checked all of the wiper linkage and everything seems to be okay, however the splines on the arm shafts and the arms themselves are beginning to wear pretty good. Plus the nut was a little loose on the passenger side. So for now it should be fine but it's definitely something I'm going to have to address later on.
  9. Bullet. Dodged. ? In other news, I need to investigate why my passenger side wiper isn't making a full sweep every time. Weekend project, along with an oil change.
  10. Took it for snow duty... aka, car sucks in snow so the Parthy gets the honors. Not that we got enough snow to worry about, though you'd have thought it was two feet or more by the way most other drivers acted.
  11. Banned for being jealous of superiors
  12. ^ is confusing himself with everybody else < turned his work phone off and enjoyed his low-key weekend v needs to get a job... lazy bum!
  13. And... along those lines, if you are not the original owner of the truck you may consider looking all over underneath to see if maybe you actually do have a harness that you didn't know about. I had an old friend who, as we were finishing up building a new trailer from scratch, took his truck (happened to be a D21/Hardbody 4x4) to a shop to get it all wired up and a receiver installed. This was so we could load our dirt bikes on a trailer, rather than into the bed of the truck. They did the receiver and found and tested a wire harness secured up on the frame rail that had previously been installed.
  14. Banned for implying anyone keeps anything private these days
  15. @headpeace This might be a good start.
  16. Banned for not allowing me to blame something/something else for my own failures
  17. And as @Slartibartfast said...
  18. Well I haven't shopped at Walmart in over a decade, nearly two, but I would assume so since it's available in most department stores that have even a slightly decent Automotive section. But it's all but guaranteed that every part store. Could just be "bad gas" as people call it, in which case dilute it with earlier fill ups.
  19. Others results may vary, but I personally have never experienced a problem running a higher octane than the vehicle as spec'ed for... when we are talking about standard regularly available octane's at the pump. But I've also never experienced an increase in performance doing the same. I used to subscribe to the, "there's better cleaners in premium fuel" idea, but found that adding a bottle of Chevron Techron additive every now and then accomplished the same and saved money compared to regular fill-ups with premium. However the results in the reverse of that situation have been different for me. Putting in a lower octane has been a problem. My current car is spec'ed premium 91+. And if I put mid-grade in it (89) octane it runs like crap. A while back a gas station attendant put in regular, 87, while filling it up even though I know I specifically said premium and right next to the gas cap there's a sticker that says 91+ only! I caught a little over half tank, stopped it and then topped it off with premium, but since I know how bad it runs off anything below 91, I didn't even risk it and immediately drove to the parts store and put in octane booster. Then the next two filling cycles were before I reached a half tank just to make sure. The reason I know how bad it runs off low octane fuel was compliments of a dealer who once did a courtesy fill up during a service, something they were doing for long-time customers. However a young, inexperienced and unobservant lot attendant was the one who took it to the gas station two blocks away to fill it up, and he put regular 87 in it. A mile or two down the road after picking it up that fuel had made its way into the firing chambers and I limped it back to the dealer. Almost had to call them to have them come get it. They drained the tank, flush the lines, refilled it with premium, refunded the cost for that regular maintenance service AND gave me my next regular maintenance service for free for the inconvenience.
