  1. Maybe try giving it a good cleaning with some carb cleaner, That used to work on my ram 50. Also if you have cruise control that cable may be pulling if it got pinched.

     

    nah mine is a pov-pack... no cruise here... getting a carby kit for it... see what happens... just hope i dont loose the little balls out of this one

  2. Any advice on tuning the OEM carby on a Z24 motor... Runs fine but idles at 2000 rpm... Adjusting the idle screw back any further only causes the engine to die.... I have slackened the throttle cable back, so it is not interfering with it... The only thing I can think of is the choke isn't coming off... Any other advise would be awesome... It has been at least ten years since I have had to play with carbs...

  3. I have torn two boots...but i was doing some really ruff wheeling/rock climbing. If i am mudding or doing moderate wheeling it is okay. I personnaly run 33's. also you might want to look into getting manual locking hubs. I have the Mile marker hubs and they are strong. be sure to use alot of thread locker. I have already jarred them loose a few times and had to tighten them on the trail. As far as suspension goes I like the ride better now especcially with the new UCA's. The Calminin ones change the angle and how they mount a little. The new bushings are nice

     

    I have independent front suspension that is wound up to the bump stop... How much lift is that to standard then?

  4. Depends on weather you have fuel injection or carb... If you want to run high grade fuel you will have to change your spark timing and carby settings to take advantage of the increased octane... With EFI the computer should make the changes for you inside it's preset rates, providing all the sensors are in working order (nok, O2, map/ air speed, air temp, etc). If they are not, then the computer will revert to a factory preset... After that you will need your computer remapped...

    I myself have tuned my Z24 carb and spark for 98 octane... The advantages of higher rate fuels are cleaner burn and more bang for your buck... I do getting better mileage from the better fuel and if tuned correctly your emissions should be either the same or lower...

    Remember I am in Australia and we pay more for fuel ( about $1.60 per liter aus, $1.71 for 0.264 gallon u.s.)

  5. Depends on how much money you are willing to spend. If you are doing the BL might as well go two inches. This will allow you to run at least 32's. If you are looking into doing this stuff I personally go through 4x4parts.com.

    Hope this helps.

    I have done a 3" body lift and a 3" suspension lift. Let me know if you need any help.

     

    How do you go with wear in the cv joints and suspension with the big lift and big tyres?

  6. Hey everyone... I am chasing a set of 1" body blocks and a bit of information on who makes the best value for money suspension lift kit?

    I live in Australia but freight out of the USA isn't a issue... Just need to be able to get on the web site and pay by credit card...

    I used to have ironman torsion bars in my 720 and they where great, but as with anything there is a lot more on offer now...

  7. G'day,

     

    I am new to the pathfinder community... Just purchased a WD21 1988 Z24 twin spark...

    Will get photos up when I get her on the road...

    I am looking forward to conversing with you all and hopefully giving a little of my own experience to some...
