  1. Thanks. I had rebuilt mine and I may have remedied the issue. Also, can someone explain the "lower shaft bushing" and how to fix if that is worn?
  2. I am looking into buying a new distributor for my Pathfinder with the 3.3 engine. I really want a genuine Nissan part so I called a dealer to ask about the part as I wanted to make sure it is Genuine NIssan. I was told the part is now manufactured under the Nissan Value Advantage parts. It used to be part #22100-1W601 made by Hitachi. Now the part # is B2100-0W00JNW and supercedes all other part #s. Which means it is made by Nissan but at a cheaper level than from the factory. I liken it to what GM does with AC Delco Gold. So this distributor is not necessarily made by Hitachi anymore. I am hesitant to pay around $350 for a part that isn't like new from the factory. It does still come with a 1 year warranty but that doesn't mean much to me. Do any of you have this part and how has it held up? Thanks!
  3. Wouldn't the remanufactured distributors from Autozone or Advance have aftermarket electronics in them?
  4. Thank you so much. I am guessing that just replacing the cam sensor/ignition module at this point would be pointless since I have all those metal pieces in there. I will try and pull out the distributor later but looks like I need the whole thing at this point? If I do replace the whole distributor, any suggestions on what to go with? I am leaning towards a new Nissan OEM unit but if anyone knows of a cheaper alternative that is reliable please chime in. Thanks again.
  5. I recently had my 1999.5 Pathy quit on me twice at random times. It happened today and afterwards it would crank but not start up. So I had it towed home. I put the code reader on it and had the primary code of P0325-Knock Sensor and a pending code for P0340-Camshaft Sensor. I assume the knock sensor was triggered due to the Cam sensor code? So I took the cap and rotor off the distributor and removed the ignition control module/camshaft sensor and the little silver disk. I cleaned up the disk as it seemed to have some dirt on it within the inner circle. I also cleaned up the ignition module/cam sensor where the silver disk spins through it with electronics cleaner. I put it all back together and it fired right up and seems to run fine. No codes came back up but I haven't driven it anywhere yet. Could it just have been dirt collecting on the little silver disk and module or should I go ahead and replace the ignition module? Also, there seems to be no play in my distributor shaft. Lastly, there were a bunch of little metal fragments laying under the module inside the distributor. No idea where they came from. My Pathy has about 125K miles on it and it is the 3.3 engine. Thanks!
  6. Chris, I cannot email you without getting delivery failure repeatedly. And I cannot figure out how to DM you on this forum using my phone. I will not have access to a laptop for several days. Can you email me an alternate way to send you my mailing info? Robert
  7. Same thing just happened to me! I also have the SE roof rack with the fairing like the OP mentioned. Apparently the front passenger side end cap flew off while I was driving. Anyone happen to have an extra one of those I could buy?
  8. Has anyone done this on a facelifted R50 Pathfinder? I can't seem to find it anywhere. I am thinking of doing the "viper" cut on mine. Thanks.
  9. I, too, would like to know which brand of spring you used in the rear that sagged so quickly. I am going to buy springs soon and want to avoid what you used.
  10. Which coil springs did you end up using? Ironman? Can you provide pics of your Pathy so I can see how it sits with the new suspension?
  11. Just an update in case anyone is helped by this. I ended up having 2 bad fuel injectors. So I replaced them all with Hitachi injectors and all is great now. I also ended up doing the upper plenum coolant delete. The engine runs awesome now.
  12. Quick update. I ended up ordering a complete rear axle from a 2001 Xterra 4WD with an LSD Diff. and 4.63 gears and 98K miles on it. I removed the third member and swapped it out with my open diff. It was a bit of a job, especially removing and replacing the third members as they are quite heavy. Thankfully I had 2 other sets of hands to help. So far it seems to work great. I haven't really had a chance to test it thoroughly but I plan to soon. Thanks again for all the input!
  13. Thanks! Do you have a link to the FB group where one was made to fit?
