So only heavy duty options are going to lift the rear? Im not opposed to lifting was thinking of some strut spacers especially in thr front since my 31s rub right now Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk

I have a 99 pathfinder and compete in audio. Truck currently has 31 x 10.50s and with the weight I have now barely clears in the rear with slight rub in the front at full tilt. All suspension is stock and id like to upgrade giving me more height and more strength In the back for the future upgrade of the substage Currently have 4 110lb grp 31 batts in the rear along with a system that weighs at least 150. Shock absorbers are paper weights right now and springs are the originals from 99 im assuming it had 74k when I got it it has 100k now Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk

So Ive had ignition issues on my pathy for almost a year now. Replaced plugs and wires that solved my first go around with my my 99 pathy not starting. A few months later it did it again turns out it was the distributor ( original from factory) replaced that in june. Car ran fine better gas mileage more power etc. Then in august truck dies on me while driving im thinking fuel pump.... nope distributor again turns out the bolt(screw) holding the rotor on the distributor backed out completely screwing the timing and shorting out the distributor when the screw fell into the housing. So took it back under warranty got a new one that one failed in October. Ever since that screw came loose I cant seem to get the distributor back in timing with vehicle ive rotated the crank to the 15 degrees b.t.d.c. on the timing indicator on crank and im still running slugish and small shakes at idle. Parts used are ngk oem plugs bought from nissan with maybe 10k on them now Bosch wires Cardone non reman distributor Anyone have any idea why I keep burning through distributors Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Nice job but why not go with 1 large battery? I was able to squeeze a grp 31 under my hood that has 120ah then I have 3 grp 31s in the rear along with a 200amp alternator Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Yea that nut coming off messed timing up so I set the crank pulley to 15°b.t.d.c and it starts and runs but idle is a little off ...it was dark when I finished last night so I have to adjust the distributor a little the get it dialed then drive around to see if those other codes come back Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

So it turns out it was the new distributor the nut holding the rotor on came loose and fell down into the distributor shorting something out I assume...so I got it to run still wasnt running great though so I adjusted the distributor to try and catch timing ..well that has put me back at halt new distributor timing completely off ...anyone know the socket size for the crank?

Im going to get up with my buddy today and use his maf sensor from his xterra if that doesnt work then ill go from there hopefully that gets me somewhere Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Ok I have some new codes just checked like 5 mins ago The could be from me trouble shooting since I tried running it while the car was disconnected but p0100, p0325, p0180 all showed up twice the other code p0160 only listed once Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

So I took the access panel off for fuel pump ...which line is the outflow and which is the return? Im trying to check For Fuel Pressure And the hoses under the hood are a pain to pull loose these popped right off Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Ive also seen on parts sites that the xterra frontier mercury villager qx4 and a 2001 3.8l v6 mustang all use the same maf? Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Clean maf and throttle body it will start with my foot on the gas but barely. The lights dont even go out on the dash it just sputters until I let my foot off the gas.. Last fill up was yesterday ironically and it happend after driving about 30 or so miles Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

So I unplugged maf sensor and it fired up ran rough of course....I hooked it back up and it will almost turn over but dies ...bad sensor? Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

No not right now I know my o2 sensors need to be replaced ...2 of them to be exact but that shouldnt keep vehicle from turning over right? Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Wont even start now car sat overnight I messed with it this morning Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

So I have my share of troubles with my pathy over the past 6 months or so as my recent topics show. So on to the problem now ..on the interstate stuck in traffic and when it finally cleared I go to accelerate to get back to highway speed she shutters and had no go so I pulled to the side and she was shaking terrible then died I could get it to start with my foot on the gas but would shake hard then cut out again and again... I had a friend stand by the rear and he said the smell coming from the muffler smelt awful and similar to sulfur. I have heard of people's vehicles not starting due to clogged catalytic converters but that its gradual meaning showing signs before it cuts out. She will not fire at all this morning. What ive done .. Spark is there Sprayed starter fluid in throttle body no change Parts replaced in the last 6 months Spark plugs ngk oem Wires bosch premiums Distributor non reman Fuel filter Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Its barely off maybe a degree or degree and a half Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

No not yet im doing that tommorrow...the garage it was at was cool enough to let me throw it in myself so I didnt have to pay...they wanted to use a napa one I got one from autozone brand new cardone one and it was 200 cheaper than napa ...I didnt want to keep them after closing so I marked the old one disconnected everything and swaped them out and had new one done aNd running in 5-10mins ...I love my makita impact Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Replaced my distributor and started right up ..seems to be running fine hopefully that was the fix idle is a little higher like 150 rpms more I need to adjust the distributor a little dont think its quite lined up where its suppose to be ...now to get some o2 sensors and a knock sensor Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Shutters at idle increased today and got to the point were vehicle would stall out and in order to start back up I would have to press my foot on the gas pedal.. Well it just stalled out completely and will not fire up even with foot on the gas. Codes im throwing are P0158 and P0138 and also a knock sensor code...im about to cave in and bend over and get raped by the dealer unless anyone has the solution Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Tune up was time for one...and I only changed the cap after the shutters started ...im going to look at my catalytic converter next see if its clogged Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Bump Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

So tuned up done and fuel filter replaced within The last 3000miles spark plugs are ngk v power and wires are bosch ...cap and rotor are duralast...when my vehicle is in gear at idle it shutters hard as if it were going to shut off rpms dropping down to almost 500...does it only below 1000 rpm and very pronounced when vehicle is warm and or warm weather outside. Its hardly noticeable in neutral or park only check eng codes I have are p0325 knock sensor and I believe a p0138 (I have to double check ) my check eng light comes and goes it use to kick codes for o2 sensors but I haven't seen those codes in over a year would love to replace them if the code ever shows up again Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Battery part was obvious just wantedto make sure the harness wasnt important ...I have to runs on 1/0 ran to the back for my audio a run of 1/0 from alts charging stud and to 1/0 grounds im getting a 350amp alt when I finish this bracket and the way the sae post are they limit the amount of 1/0 runs I want to run to the back for my batteries Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

Can someone help me indentify the red harness in the picture and what its used for? I would like to remove it so that I can run a different style of battery terminals http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g204/jayjay6888/20130212_124002.jpg Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2

I have a 99 pathy with original socks and springs that are of course paper weights at this time im ready to replace them among other things ....main problem is Im into car audio heavily and 4 sooon to be 6 maybe more 100lb batteries along with the weight of the box which will be upgraded to a wall up to the bpillar ...so I want to beef up the suspension as much as possible to accomidate the extra load Thanks for suggestions and would love to avoid air bags due to lack of room for a compressor Sent from my VS910 4G using Tapatalk 2
