  1. As for your alternator, Since you have a new one in, you should be okay for a long while. It doesn't hurt to have a spare with you. I'm not sure where the front or rear breather tubes vent to but it doesn't hurt to get them out higher or somewhere it doesn't ingest water. Either way works for your ECU, it's total preference. Definitely must do as these pathfinders are getting harder to source in the junkyard. For me, if I'm water to soak my ECU, I'm already in trouble.
  2. Your power light will flash 13 times or so letting you know it went into limp mode when you start it up.
  3. Installed the new oil pressure sender. I kind of freaked out and thought my gauge wasn't reading at idle until I gave it some gas. I just need to hard mount it now.
  4. Can someone tell me where I can find the oil pressure sensor wire? I can't seem to locate where it originates from since it's not where my sensor use to be.
  5. What the fluid level? Color? Smell? How many miles? When was the last fluid flush? Are you running an aftermarket transmission cooler?
  6. Welcome! Sometimes those pesky electrical issues can make or break someone
  7. It should work. Slight differences but it will run.
  8. Ordered a new TPS, new rear sway bar link, and new rear gas lift shocks for the trunk.
  9. Any auto parts store will give you an alternate to use.
  10. It's been running fine as I've been driving it for almost 800 miles now. It was just odd that all of a sudden it was loud rapid tapping/ticking for a few minutes and went away. I may pull the valve train off again and check things over again and see the cause. I'm going to install the oil pressure gauge later this week so I can monitor how the oil flow is.
  11. When I first did the swap, I couldn't remember if swapping out the MC Made a difference. Also do you have lsd or open rear diff?
  12. Catch is this was a motor I rebuilt with new lifters. I had the lifters speced and primed before it sat for 5 years.
  13. When was the last time you did a tune up? Not hard to do and not pocket burning.
  14. The other day I was having an issue where I think my lifter was stuck or something. I was driving on the highway and as I was pulling off, it was very audible. Loud and repetitious depending on the RPMs. Then as I drove further, at lower speeds it went away. Any thoughts as to what happened or a cause? I unfortunately do not have my oil pressure gauge hooked up so have no idea if oil pressure was an issue.
  15. The oem ones did not go in so well. I ended up having to smooth out the barrel further for the bushings to go in easier. I won't have to worry about replacing these in another 10 or so years. I must say that this is probably one of the most satisfying fixes I've done.
  16. Yeah I got new ones in my rebuild and I think one of them is giving me hell. I have not got around to seeing if it's an exhaust leak yet.
  17. I got my replacing bushings from Nissan today. Dorman is sending me two new kits so I can get my refund from at the auto parts store.
  18. Make sure you take your time and get the lifters checked out and primed properly.
  19. Busted out the drill. Damned stuck bushing no more!
  20. Maybe they switched suppliers? Who knows. I'll shoot an email to Dorman when I get home from work.
  21. DO NOT BUY DORMAN REPLACEMENT DOOR HINGE KITS! THE BUSHINGS INCLUDED SUCK AND BREAK! ORDER NISSAN REPLACEMENT BUSHINGS!
  22. Attempted to tackle this. I have one bushing that is giving me hell and it was getting late and so I had to tape my door shut since I live in an apartment complex. What sucks even more is I have to order Nissan bushings because the Dorman hinge pin kit comes with some brittle ass copper looking bushings. They crumbled and broke with I tried push them into the hinge. Really pissed.
  23. Took apart my washer pumps and lubed the Shafts. Hopefully it lasts a few more years. Now, for new spray nozzles. Figured out why I was losing brake pressure. The vacuum hose to the booster dry rotted and cracked. Replaced with some leftover transmission oil hose. I still need to tighten down on the master cylinder to booster nuts since they were kind of loose.
  24. The doors have holes to drain water unless they are clogged. I would take a look by looking and the bottom door seams. Next could be that you have rusted windshield body panels.
