  1. I'm sorry for such a dumb question, but how do you reuse the plastic clips that hold the front grill on? I installed a trans cooler today, and broke most of them. Old brittle plastic i guess. It looks like you have to put them on the grill first, then twist into raidiator support. Am I wrong? Just cant figgure it out!! I need to get new ones. For now i installed a keeper with some sheetmetal screws. It rattles now. Thanks for any help Oh its a 1994 SE.

  2. You've done this on a Pathfinder? I want video :D

     

     

    :D Yes sadly. I went with hauling the engine out, seemed easier. BTW when you pull the rear main out, clean off the oil and let it sit for a while you may find what I did. Sump gasket leaking too.

    See pic #2.

    Do you have the FSM? You don't need to drop the front diff as you've got an auto, just unbolt the torque converter through the starter hole :aok:

    Feel free to PM me if you need anything else :beer:

    Also get one of these in 14mm for the bell housing bolts, they are GOLD http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp?P65=&tool=&item_ID=5028&group_ID=545&store=&dir=catalog

    I intend to make one out of a cheap ratchet spanner :aok:

    thanks I got all my parts now i can start.I was wondering why the Haynes book said to drop the front diff. thanks again. After this hopefully I can contribute some info. Let ya know how my knuckles look after I'm done.

  3. Mid '93 was the switch so if yours is the original motor with the original sprockets (it should be) then you have the round tooth sprocket/belt. Change interval is every 105k miles/4 years.

    just picked all my stuff fron NAPA . Thanks for the info.

  4. Sorry abut this question But I cant find the post I saw it in. Does My 1994 vg30e v6 engine Have round or square teeth on the timing belt? The parts houses show both kinds. I remember seeing 1994 was the year they changed. If it matters, mine was built 12/93 , 1994 model. Thanks a lot!

  5. Thanks all for the replys. I'm clearing out my garage this weekend so i can park inside. Start on pulling it out next week. Sounds like Ill be pulling the trany also. I wasent shure if it would be to long to clear. I'm sure it will come out just fine if you all did it. Thanks again. My wife thanks you to, No more spots in the driveway!

  6. Just started working on my 94' Pathfinder SE with a V6. 200,000 + Miles. Front and Rear main Seals are leaking a lot.I know I can leave the engine in for the front seal. an I have to remove the trany (Auto)for the rear. I was thinking it might be easyer just to pull the motor, that way I can check the oil pump gasket and pan gasket without laying on the ground. Any thougts or sugjestions woul be greatly appreached.
