      Not one cylinder as in the motor, but one forklift propane cylinder...

      I believe with a properly tuned propane setup the most power you will lose is 7-10%. in some scenarios propane runs better than gas. like in the cold, or under light throttle conditions. look it up. if you do it right you can convert it to dual fuels and run both if you like. it is a viable option.

      My point exactly...and the more I read the more I want to find a carb intake for my vg30

      Good time to fix the a/c because it is worth it!

      I replaced a 78 cent o-ring on the low side hose flange at the compressor and got the a/c going again on my 94 path. Get some leak dye and find where it is leaking.

      I think my compressor went out..ebay here I come...

  3. So after 337K miles, this trans has lost reverse. This sucks.

      Yeah that ain't bad, that transmission doesn't owe you anything at that mileage... I take it you've kept up with maintenance given the surprising mileage. Get an HD version of the trans as Tungsten said unless you want a manual swap of course.

      Mine died after 163k. :) Seems to be a rash of people losing reverse lately though.

      That is a good amount of mileage, even most domestic transmissions don't last that long.

  4. Truck sat for almost a year as I was saving to repair transmission...starter went bad, alternator followed shortly (thanks to mud wasps...) and now, my compresssor goes belly up. A sitting truck will fall apart if not maintained.

      Yeah it's not good to have them sitting. Put up on jack stands, drain the oil and remove battery

      Tell me about it...

      maybe a car cover while your at it? storing a car outside is rough, but lubing cylinder walls, fuel stabilizer, and an oil change is very beneficial, also maybe starting it without fuel to get oil into the important places? do a quick google search there are plenty of tips on outside storage.

  5. Am seriously thinking about ripping out my gauge cluster, and installing mechanical gauges in a piece of sheet metal or something. Tired of jacked up tach and temp readings.

      Yea, just none in my AO. I figured it would be unique... Wonder if I could swap my speedo to your cluseter? What do you want for it?

    3. adamzan

      adamzan

      The temp gauges don't normally go bad on the round dash clusters, its always the speedo and tach. I would check your coolant temp sensor.

    4. tmoore4512

      tmoore4512

      Yea, I was talking more about having something that may be more precise...I still have to come up with the money to do it. I would at a minimum like to add a mechanical gauge...

  6. At work, no bathroom in sight... have to pee... ohh man....

  7. So it is quite the bummer having only that Pathfinder to drive, as we have sold the wife's Altima... Nice to have that debt gone for sure, but it really REALLY dampens my plans for world domination through drive train swappage...

      lint

      Yes, we too only have 1 vehicle. Just try to enjoy the feeling that A) it's paid for, B) is virtually indestructible C) you can fix it when needed & D) it allows to to vent on NPORA!

      Re-gearing the Dana 44 that is going up front in 4.56...

  11. Can I take a 2wd trans from a 98 pathy and remove the tail shaft and put ony T case on her? Site unseen, maybe someone has been here before...

    1. Tungsten

      Tungsten

      I am going to say yes because the T-case is detachable and the transmission is the same.

    2. tmoore4512

      tmoore4512

      Hmmm interesting

  12. If you wanna sell me some arm rests...a passenger side front at least...advise. Been looking for a while now.
