hI, had them put in by my local Nissan dealer when they found an earth leak from my rotor arm..not sure which plugs they are..ill go and have a look

hi, yes seems (from memory) that its the damp/dewy mornings that are the problem..but definitely when its cold too..wet weather in the summer is no problem

Hi .. newbie here ...hoping that someone can shed some light on an issue with my 1996 terrano,,its the 3300cc petrol engine vg33e i think...here goes...truck is fine during most of the year except winter...if it has been cold (5deg c) or less and a heavy dew the engine just spins over endlessly until the battery dies.(has a brand new battery now) if i leave it alone for a few hours and try again i usually have success but it runs very rough for a few secs and then clears and drives fine. when it does start it throws out a cloud of strong petrol-smelling smoke for a moment..(flooding?) this occurred again yesterday after a cold night and very damp dew..im trying to work out the correlation between the cold and the damp and i think that something is being affected by the dew/condensation somewhere at the end of last year i had new plugs and rotor arm and cold air sensor(?) fitted..i thought id fixed it , but no, late for work again!! any thoughts or suggestions to keep this otherwise hard working truck running ( 8 years with me now) would be very welcome ps sorry in advance if posted in wrong area
