    If R50JR said to get a group 24 or 34 AGM I agree, I have a 34 AGM in mine.
  2. CALPATHY
    That took some effort, I am glad I have the factory manual. Great job!
  3. CALPATHY
    The auto trans is probably easier, we were talking about manual.
  4. CALPATHY
    Good tip, especially for the rear end.
  5. CALPATHY
    Draining the tranny is the easy part, filling it up is a bit of a pain unless on a rack.
  6. CALPATHY
    There are couple or work arounds if you find the knock sensor is bad: 1) splice in a resistor but I don't remember which one, should be searchable, I did that as a quickie to pass smog 2) relocate the new knock sensor on top of the engine (which I did eventually) I think instructions searchable here as well.

    Maybe they expanded it, I just got the text message and I am certainly not in a salt state (although right by the ocean). P.S. The service department confirmed Nissan now wants to check all of them.
  8. CALPATHY
    FYI, just received a notice from my local dealer to check and possibly repair strut housing.

    The price is a little high, but if you are looking for a manual there are not easy to find. It took me a long time to find one even back then when they were more common.

    Check the distributor cap as well, it can collect water. Spraying Boeshield T-9 saved my butt couple of time when the distributor cap and wires got wet, displaced the water.
  11. CALPATHY
    Water intrusion from the overheating to distributor or other electrical?
  12. CALPATHY
    Wherever you think there may be moisture on electrical connections, it is a water displacing lubricant that leaves a protective waxy film.
  13. CALPATHY
    Hm, my 1997 Pathfinder locks from both sides. so either a circuit interrupt or short. If moisture, try Boeshield T-9 spray.
  14. CALPATHY
    To help troubleshoot you should try key both sides and also the door panel switches.
  15. CALPATHY
    Time to call Ghostbusters! Kiding asides, sounds like a short, possibly in one of the door switches. Does it do it from either side and just by key or the door panel lock switches?
