Thanks all for the replies. I have checked the flywheel with the starter removed, rotated the engine with it removed, it looks good and solid. I have changed the starter a 3rd time with the exact same noise, I have changed the battery a known good. I am going to check wiring tomorrow. I will update when i have more. So far I am getting too fast at removing/installing these, not exactly what I was looking to be good at doing.

Hello all, Since my last posts, I've decided to keep my 91. I love it too much, plus I went off to boot camp/a-school. I have been back barely a week now just to find my Pathfinder no longer wants to start. She makes a special kind of sound that cannot be described, so I've added a short video. I have had the starter checked and replaced. The old was ok, but just to make sure I went new. I have checked the flex plate, all of the teeth are ok. I can and have rotated the crank to make sure it isn't stuck. I have gone through everything and am now at a loss what it could be. The sound it makes like in the video is very much not a normal sound. Thanks!

My poor Pathfinder gave up today. The transmission decided on my way home that it was done, luckily I was a block from home and it has been my beast for the 15 years I've owned her. Unfortunately I have no time to rebuild so its time to move on. I haven't been on here for a while, so I thought I'd just share a sad moment here. I love my Pathy.

Glad I'm not the only one. Guess I'l go get an exchange and sell it or give it away. already hooking up manual switch until I find something reliable.

I removed the mech fan to install an electric late last summer. I opted for a Hayden Electric Fan Controller model 3647 to carry the important duties. in Oct it stopped turning on. relay tested good, however, the lifetime warranty gave me a brand new one. The past few weeks it has started working only at random times. I know it all works and voltages are good. relay is good. Has anyone used this model with/without success?

i'd like some help with this too. i did the same thing. oops. that picture doesn't help very much, i assume that the swith is turned off in the picture.

yes, i do know what NPORA is. i am member 121 (i have better pics but no time to get digi versions). i am just speaking for the noobs. we don't want to scare them off after all. we don't want to make them think that you have to upgrade them to make them great. after all, they are great in the first place. the tranny's great now, thanks for asking, i bought one for $100, totally rebuilt and it couldn't be better.

i know this, i have been here a while even though my profile doesn't show it. i know wheelin is a big part, but there are those who just want what they ask. i saw 2 questions in the past week that were about "basic" upgrades and turned into something completely different.i'm just saying, don't assume everyone wants to go hard wheelin. i do not by any means want a lowered pathy, but a stock appearance, maybe an inch above with good suspension and handeling. that's all. the search only goes so far. i posted something about an auto tranny and it doesn't come up in a search. i'm just saying, don't just assume everyone wants the extreme like the past posts turned out to be.

why is it when someone here asks about doing some basic upgrades, easy suspension upgrades, or mentions "keep stock apperance" everyone jumps in with "get a 3" body lift", or "why would you go half a$$ and do a 1", go for the 3" lift", or maybe "get some jcg or ford springs to lift it"? not everyone wants to go wheeling hard or to change our pathy's too much. usually i just read here, but i am now inclined to write. i see this trend lately going toward duking your pathy out for wheeling. i fear that this attitude scares normal owners off. those who just want BASIC upgrades. how about some basic suggestions for basic users with some simple questions. if they want more afterwards, then yes, good upgrading is great. i'm not trying to trash anyone by any means, but this is a "community" and we should all help the noobs and anyone with purley basic questions.

that is a common issue with with these trans, that typically do not require a complete rebuild. there is a simple test you can perform. HERE
