T.O.B. could definately be it. Check to see if you main seal is still good. Look for leaks etc that don't come from normal places. You may be getting a leak that is putting fluid into the clutch. I had a similar problem on a non-Nissan vehicle a few months ago. It started like you describe but it got worse and more frequent. I hope it turns out to be less of an issue that mine did.

Maintenance is pretty key too. I know we all love out Pathy's but I know some people who push the oil-change envelope a bit too far. I average 17 city/19-20 hwy. Yes it's the 3.0. Not heavy-footed but not "Granny Featherfoot" either. Some folks forget about all those little fluids and wires and spark plugs and let that kill their mileage. But it's still a b***h to fill up at $3 a gallon, regardless of how far you can go.

Damn! That even beats my deal. Some people have all the luck.

Pathy.

This is much much closer, Vox. Is that close to the font or is that the actual one? Thanks. It is definetly between this and the one on my av.

So I am working on getting the "Beerfinder" logos made for Daisy. The only workable font I have found so far is the one in my avatar. But that font is from '96 on. Anyone know what font to dl or look for on the web? Maybe someone has a .gif or a .jpg that I can work with. I can photochop anything and I know using the name "Beerfinder" aint exactly original, but I want some authenticity. Can anyone help?

Hola and all that stuff.

Welcome. Here in the Dallas 'burbs I rarely get attacked by mud but always keep my eye out for it. I call mine a Truck too. It is jut not very SUV'y to me. This bitch was built for fun and I damned-well plan to do just that with her. Mine is a DD also but I will have a pic like fordsho's soon.

Dood. Sounds like you did more than "Break" it in. I'm with Pezzy. Ditch the 'flaps. Those are for the yuppy people who don't want a dirty pathy. But I think her that is what we ALL want. Welcome aboard and I think I speak for all of us when I say "When do we see pics?"

And the old "whack it with a hammer" trick works wonders on any vehicle, from a Geo Metro to a Peterbuilt tractor. It's just that the solinoid (sp?) is shot. You NORMALLY have to have someone crank on the key while you bang away. At least that is what I remember from an old Impala I had.

Buddy of mine years ago had an RX7 with a tri-tone airhorn. It was hooked to his alarm too. Took us all of 2 hours to install. It came with its own canister/minicompressor. As soon as I find it it is going in the BEERFINDER. I hate that "MEEP MEEP" sound too. But the local [insert quippy parts store name here] parts store should have something. Though it is fun to do custom stuff sometimes a simple bolt-on is the answer.

Believe me I know. My bro is a wrench-twister down in Austin. I don't mind payin for a tranny over-haul or something like that but a $12 switch just gets my goat.

Welcome aboard! I am from Plano myself.

Yeah. It's looking like that is what I will have to do. Local wrench twisters are charging 75 to 100 bones an hour to put in a $12 part. And access under the shifter boot ain't happenin either.

never thought about coming in from the top. Will have to look into that tomorrow. Old switch was trash. When I put the new one in it worked just fine "testing" it with the thumb. (Imagine this: Disconnect old switch from harness and connect new. Lay under the truck and have the wife start the Pathy. She then gets out and stands at the rear while I use my thumb to press the button in the new switch, under the Pathy). Will see if the boot is an option. Will removing the crossmember/lowering tranny be a bitch or is it pretty simple?
