Does the factory alarm have the flashing light at the ignition barrel?

Is it this thread?

Is it a v6? Have you checked your codes?

Did you extend your shifter lever. I think after a 3"body lift it needs to be extended or the body needs to be trimmed so it can function properly or was that the 4x4 selector?

If you decide to go lsd make sure its a clutch type and not viscous.

I ran it again for a sec today and the smoke is abit blue and when I removed the oil cap it reeked of bad fuel. Could it be possible that when the CHTS went bad it dumped fuel in which mixed with the oil, and now that it's replaced it's working fine but the engine is consuming oil because it is mixed with fuel? If that's the case then hopefully just an oil and filter change will do the trick. But yeh I suppose my question is if the oil and fuel is mixed will the engine start to consume its oil/fuel mixture?

I started the car today and it didn't smoke and had NO codes but still bogged abit. After I checked the codes I started it again and it smoked and bogged again, so I checked the codes and once again NOTHING. It idles for afew seconds and sounds like it drops a cylinder or two but doesn't die. The smoke smells like fuel and there is allot of it.

I'm not talking about a kit unfortunately, I meant making it from scratch.

Are you going to beef up the front end? You could even do a torsion bar delete and go to coils.

It really isnt all that hard. I had to stand on my nudge bar though and kinda climb into the engine bay . Although you cant actually see the plug hole, you just have to feel around. I used a swivel joint and a long extension. The air hose is to blow away any dirt from falling into the spark plug hole which really helps if you have a large buildup.

Well I got the new NISSAN sensor and harness installed today. There's a little bit of a difference but not too much. Its still smoking up and idling rough which might just be the cams.I managed to move the nissan onto a level surface where i will soon be able to do an oil change as the oil currently has fuel in it. The smoke is what really concerns me, I'm pretty sure its not a head gasket as the coolant is nice and green and the oil well smells like fuel but doesnt look milky like a typical blown headgasket. I'll check the codes again to see if maybe there is a fault somewhere else in the CTS system.

Its very similar to the two tone option that came on the gq patrol.

Send Alkorahil your vin and he should be able to find the exact injector for your vehicle.

My terrano has a gold tint all round minus the windshield but i think the po had that done.

If its the front you can just unlock your hubs when you go on the street.

I meant getting a harness from the wreckers and cleaning up the contacts so it has a good connection. Considering the link you just sent me is about the price of an aftermarket one here i think i might as well just buy one from courtesy parts then. I'm sure the postage more then makes up for the trouble as well as the price i would have to pay for one from my dealership.

I think i'll just try an aftermarket brand sensor and use a harness from the wreckers making sure that it has a good connection first because the connector on mine fell apart. If my sensor was yellow does it matter if i get a red or blue one for a vg30e engine?

Ive contacted several Nissan dealerships and they want between $100-$123 for the sensor and they dont even know if its the two terminal or one and about $80 for the harness. They also have to ship it from japan

Here is the one by the shirtless guy (MY1PATH)

Is that the one with two wires?

Yup it smells like fuel. Does it have to be nissan or can it be a brand like Standard Motor Products

Can this cause the smoke too?

Ok so I have an 89 v6 which had a missfire. I know it had a missfire because it was idling really rough and it had that typical "noise" that engines with a missfire make.I changed all the plugs and it looks like it kinda fixed the problem. By that i mean when I started it up after the plug change it idled much better but still sounded abit rough/beasty. Now I do have a hole in my muffler and according the the previous owner one of the owners before him installed aftermarket cams. With that being said I have never actually herd it run properly. I bought it with a known missfire but it has been sitting in the garage for a while as i hadnt had the time to look at it. Also when its running its really smokey (mostley white maybe a slight blue?). The engine was previously flooded from being cranked to long also i can smell fuel on the dipstick. I check the codes and i got a 13(CTS) and when its running it gets the dashlight in the picture below, Is that a CEL?. The reason I think somethings wrong is because it sounds nothing compared to the pathfinders I have heard on video if anything it sounds abit like a cammed v8? and its really smokey. Also it somes has a miss in idle. When its not missing in idle if i nudge the throttle it does rev like a normal engine would but im scared to rev it because its really smokey and dont want to cause any damage. I cant really do an oil change till i get it on a level surface. To get it on a level surface i want it to run without missing then I can put it in reverse and it will go further up the driveway onto a level surface. Right now it is on a slight incline nose down. I also changed the fuel filter and that helped dramatically with starting.

Nah its still not on the road either. The guy i bought it from had it just to use in his backyard and it has been that way for a few years so before i register it im going to do some preventative maintenance work on it like timing belt, all fluids and filters, sparkplugs and boots, bushings etc.

A pretty much stock 89 terrrano. You?
