  1. Yup, it is actually part of the EGR system. It's on page EC-16 of the FSM.
  2. WD21's have a stock EGT sensor? That blows my mind, where is it??
  3. This applies to any kind of gauge that is measure pressure or temp. You want electrical, because you don't want oil, transmission fluid, or fuel running into the cabin. It's stupid, dangerous, and there are much better and safer ways of doing it.
  4. seems to break more stuff than he fixes. *sigh*

  5. I have yet to acquire a toolbox. I do need one, badly.
  6. Are pathies right hand drive in puerto rico? Is the ECU still on the right side of the car in right hand drive models? Cause what it sounds like to me, is that you found the ECU.
  7. Mister510 came through and was able to clean up the threads good enough to get the spark plug in there. He told me to leave it in there for at least 100k miles... hah.
  8. Yeah, the threads on the spark plug are messed up, so... yuh. And I was threading it by hand, I learned a few years ago not to start bolts/nuts/etc with a wrench/socket, had to replace several wheel studs on my first car. Mister510 says he can fix it.
  9. So I decided to do a slight tune up today, new cap and rotor and spark plugs, also replaced my battery terminals. Upon trying to find the #6 spark plug after taking the boot off, I was sitting on the engine, well... more like the radiator and broke the upper spot where the hose goes. yay. And my real problem, I can't get the spark plug to thread in straight, I tried several times to get it to go in correctly, it felt too tight, so I'd back it off and try again, each time I did it it felt so, so I thought maybe there was some dirt/gunk in the threads. So I went with it, just in case it had misthreaded I fired it up and there was an occasional miss, so I pulled the plug back out, and I indeed started stripping the threads. So now what? It's only the first couple that are borked on the spark plug, but I fear I effed the head up.
  10. Well, now I have three. I pocketed one at the junkyard. My pocket wasn't big enough for the both of them =/
  11. Seriously though, get a bug shield!
  12. I notice mine rocks back and forth too. I really need to get a front end alignment... I'll probably wait til I lift it.
  13. Blue smoke is oil. Black smoke is fuel. White smoke is antifreeze/water/condensation.
  14. Does it feel like it's lost some power? if so, I would also vote a plugged up cat. Which usually a plugged cat and a bad o2 sensor go hand in hand. so check both of them.
  15. Your calculated MPG would improve a bit, since it was geared for 31's and you put a smaller tire on it, the odometer would show that you have traveled more than you actually have.
  16. Sounds like you have other electrical gremlins going on....
  17. It may help to get it flushed, and replace the stock cooler, if you haven't already.. I have noticed mine will hold a gear with a certain throttle pressure and when I let up a bit, it will drop into the next gear, but this is only while I have it in "power" mode. Another thing to note, if you hit the throttle hard from a stop, the transmission will automagically go in to power mode, until you ease up on the skinny pedal, then it goes back to Normal mode.
  18. My pathy has an ABS module. Which you bleed first. And then, line length wise, the driver side rear is the farthest from the module.
  19. Nah, just your standard shucks/oreilly clamps will do the job.
  20. The LED should never been steady on unless the alarm was tripped. When it's armed it will blink slow and steady.
  21. Hey, my truck only came with two!
  22. Check under your driver seat for the alarm module. It may be missing like the one on my truck was.
  23. No such thing, Nissan doesn't even use the letter A in engine codes.
  24. You could always take the stock tube off and just measure it. I don't think there is any information in the FSM about its length.
