  2. Upon further inspection, the #5 injector housing will come off, but the actual system stays on the spark plug. It is running super rich and when I'm driving its all good but idling is a little low and struggles a little bit when taking off

  3. It got a new starter in January and new Exhaust in February. Odometer stopped at 152k so I'd say at least 180k. It is all of the sudden and random. If I do a pull through all 4 gears up to 65, it won't do it for about 10 minutes.

  4. It's always something with these trucks :headwall: My engine has been stuttering when I'm coasting in a low gear, and has been wanting to stall at idle. I've checked the injectors, spark plugs, and I turned the ECU idle speed up a tad but I'm not sure that it will do anything. I also adjusted the throttle cable because the throttle response was lagging a bit but that was before this incident. Any ideas on what the issue may be?

  5. I never said nor implied that they were.... and you just validated my point.

     

     

    If I had been referring to a Cherokee I would have mentioned that. A generic reference to a Jeep in an off road discussion is not about a Cherokee. Also, a little applied (un)common sense... and given that I referenced a design intent to run without doors, eliminates Cherokee's from the possible Jeep models I was targeting with that example.

     

     

     

    But anyway, the intent of my original post was simply to bring up safety concerns to the original poster, not to open the door up for and get the :jacked:

     

    :itsallgood: moving on now...

    Wouldn't a generic reference be any Jeep model though? If you are comparing a Pathfinder to a Wrangler, those are way different. And most people that I wheel with have Cherokee XJ's so I was confused. I didn't know there was supposed to be a specific model when it is generically referenced. Have a good one man.

    Pathfinders doors were not designed to be removed in any case but service or repair situations, nor do they have roll bars/cages from the factory.... bud :rolleyes:

    Neither were Cherokee doors. Wranglers are a joke for college boys imo. I'm working on tube doors right now and they aint too difficult to build. :lmao:

  7. Couple things....

     

    1. Unlike Jeeps, Pathfinders were designed to have their doors on.. they are part of the structure. Without them (or suitable and properly built tube replacements) you run a higher risk of serious injury in an accident.
    2. Your ECM is on the floor under the passenger side front seat, if you get a freak rain storm, it could be compromised.

     

    Doors on Jeeps are a part of their structure too bud. But yea I'll second the ECM thing

    On a similar idea, I wonder why people actually buy new cars? I don't want all the gadgets new cars have, and I could have a perfectly restored older car for much less! I think of this like an investment; if I put the money into fixing the rust, and then maybe in 5 years I have to do the drivetrain (suspension is already almost done), I'll still be in it far less than even half the cost of a new truck.

     

    Dude I'm thinking the same thing; and I'm 17! I have loved working on mine since July when I bought it. Everything is super simple, it being 26 years old and all. I'm debating on registering it as a classic car.

  9. Hey everybody, So I'm looking into getting my exhaust leak fixed and getting a new muffler. I already have a Flowmaster super 40 on it but I would like to do something that doesn't make it sound so much like a ricer. Any suggestions?
