  1.  

    This could help out the newbs and people like Kyle, since they cant find anything with out a diagram, instructions, sonar, gps and a lot of Q's.

    This is for persons who are not mechanics, and want to know where is what.

     

    Many important points on the image.

     

    For example, I had a black smoke from exhaust so many persons were recommending many things, except to check THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR (35 usd on ebay, on the image below is the old one), as the carburator was so dirty.

     

    But before that I have changed the spark plugs, distributor cap, wires for spark plugs, oil, air filter, almost bought O2 sensor (but I will), as the motor was stalling on iddle.

     

    So, this is the part that keeps sending "dirty" message to the comp

  2. I have few questions:

     

    What is this (Transmission Bushing)?:

    What is this (Lower Control Arm Bushing)?

    What is this (Track Arm Bushing)?

    Is this the same as the other one (Control Arm Bushing)?

    please do not laugh loud.

  3. Okay, to continue my famous changing of bushings.

     

    I used "Energy Suspension" bushings (and I had made in Japan black ones that comes with sleeve inside).

    So, Energy Suspension sleeves are no good, and can not be used, I should buy four made in Japan instead.

     

    Installed top row of red ones.

    We had to use old sleeves. I throw Energy Suspension sleeves as garbage. Well I think that I will use long ones as a slide for my Stratocaster.

     

    It looks like this:

    Installation was easy, I was watching what mechanic was doing, I gave him the paper instructions of Energy Suspension, but he did not used the instructions...

     

    We also changed the shock bushings (top shock bushings, there are two donuts).

    There was a problem to find lower shock bushings, in local store, and they told me that is impossible to get factory lower shock bushings, and that I should use two parts that looks like cone bushing, then we cut each ending of sides so it can fit in.

    Edicer2 told me to get Turn Stopper Caps, (https://www.4x4parts.com/nissan/turn-stopper-caps-p-6072.html) and I did, here is the image:

  4. I bought new radiator on ebay for 47 usd, shipping was free to Miami, and then I paid just for few pounds shipping to Dominican Republic, it is a light device.

     

    After, I (mechanic did it) changed some hoses, and added the liquid.

    As I had little of green and little of red, I mixed together, that was wrong, add only one type of the liquid.

    So you just buy two gallons and add the liquid, until is full.

     

    Do not add liquid on the department on the left side.

     

    Do not add normal water, well on the gas station guy added the water in that department until the end, and while I got home, the tap on the bottom of radiator was broken, and all liquid went out.

    Managed to drive one kilometer without the liquid.

     

    On ebay you can get also the fan, and radiator support, mounting tie, blade for fan, hoses, and radiator cap.

     

    I bought this cap

    and here is the search for Nissan pathfinder 1995 radiator.

  5. At the end it looks like this:

    IMG03226-20111220-1814.jpg

     

    It does produce sound whooooooummmm when accelerating...

     

    Changing the air intake cost was 300 pesos (8 usd), I paid 400 pesos.

    829-843-2476 is phone of Martin, the mechanic (Spanish only), located next to Hospital Centro Medico Bavaro - Punta Cana.

    Actually this is not useful for you guys, except if you come as tourists to Punta Cana.

     

    As you can see, mechanic is in the t-shirt, in December, as the temperature in Caribbean was 78F today.

  6. wats for submarine mod comments to flow in

     

    I'd rather just have me an old DUKW, but I'm the type that would over-enjoy using it as a DD...

     

    DUKW ("D" stands for 1942, "U" stands for utility (amphibian), "K" stands for front wheel drive, and "W" indicates two rear-driving axles.)
