    i think argentina was leading 2-1 at half over some country from africa... (CMF) not sure who they were, but i went down into town today and people were going crazy over the game

     

    (by the way its happy hour ALL the time)

    It's Costa do Marfim... but I have no idea how the name of this country is in English... :P

    I will take a pic, there was a rubber flap that goes under the alt. It attached to the front "skid" plate, I think? I will look in the am.

    Humm... now I know what is missing in the front skid plate of my truck...

    I saw some kind of attaching points, but didn't know what was that for... ;)

    How many miles do you get from a full tank?

    HOLY @!*%!!!!!

     

     

    Best Ive gotten was 320 KM to a tank. yes, KM!!!!!! thats just under 200 miles to a tank. this SUX!!!!!! 3" sus lift 31's A/t 4.625s. OEM light bars with 4 6" liths.

     

    full 2.5" exhaust flowmaster 40. 8 mm plug wires, new filter, oil change, cap, rotor ect

     

    I did go threw almost 1/4 tank 4 wheeling and have since found that I can go REALLY low on a tank.

     

    How far can you guys go once the gas light turns on?

     

    I put 30 km with the needel totaly on E (did not move at all since start up) and at the 30 km the gas light started to come on and off

    That's bad, the worst I got was about 250 city / 320 highway, but after replacing a bad fuel injector I'm getting 300 city / 430 highway. My Path has 122k miles on it, 2" tb lift and 255/75R15 AT tires.

     

    The high capacity of the "EMPTY" is very good to me... I've used it many times :rolleyes:

    But how big is the tank on my 1995 SE-V6 5spd? It seems that even when the gauge is VERY LOW it only takes about 17 or 18 gal. If it's a 21 gal tank, IT NEVER takes that much! So Do I really have 4 extra gallos\ns when the gauge reads VERY EMPTY?

     

    Thanks,

    Zack

    I don't know, but I think there may be more than 2 gallons, I've already run more than 10 miles in "EMPTY" :P

    As you've been talking about stress & body lifts...

     

    What about a 6" body lift? :D

     

    I'm gonna post pictures later. There's a shop in Sao Paulo/Brazil who does the work and a guy from our Yahoo! forum put the BL in his Pathfinder. :o

     

    I'm wondering if that's secure at all... :confused:

    Then, as I'm fond on saying, it's 1/2 the truck, 1/2 the driver; we've all seen enough internet videos and photos to agree on that (much less first hand experiences) !!

     

    B

    Partially disagree... B)

     

    It's:

    1/3 the truck

    1/3 the driver

    1/3 the bud outside saying "Here... Here... Turn Right! NOOOO! I MEANT LEFTTT! Ok... Come... Stop! No! STOP!!!! OW! WHAT A SH..... I DIDN'T SEE THAT ROCK!!!!!" :D

    Shifting on the fly.

    in 90-95 WD21 Pathfinders

    Posted

    It happens to me just the first time I try to shift into 4HI. After that, if I have to disengage and shift into 4HI again while running, no problem. But for the first shift I allways have to stop, otherwise I'll hear those bad noises too.

     

    It's not necessary to stop and reverse to unlock the hubs, just in case it does not happen a while after you shift back to 2HI.

    What kind of oil do you use?

    in General Forums

    Posted

    Well it's about time for me to change my oil and I was wondering what kind of oil everyone uses.  I use Castrol GTX High Mileage 10w 40.

     

    I was going to make this into a poll at first, but then I decided there are just too many different brands, mixtures, and weights of oils to effectively create a poll.

    Same here!

    That's all I want!

    I've seen Castrol GTX High Mileage around here, but only 25W60. So I used Castrol Magnatech 10W40.

    I'm gonna search more, maybe I can find the GTX High Mileage 10W40... Oil change time is coming... :rolleyes:

    10-w30 weight is what Nissan recommends!

    That's strange. The owners manual for my 95 recommends 5W30 for all climates. 10W30 is mentioned, but only above 0 degrees celcius. I use the Valvoline, or Quaker State high mileage, 5W30.

    So says the manual of mine.

     

    I'm using syntetic Castrol Magnatech 10W40.

    Lol, and I thought I was being smooth with my $26 bid :D (I'm Rave5096)

     

    Looks like its up $90.95 now though :-(

    Oh! And I thought I could bid US$50 and have some of you send it to me in a little box as a gift, so I won't need to pay Brazilian import taxes! :laugh:

    EGR function trouble code

    Posted

    Yeah, that's what I used to check what the trouble code meant, as I weren't at home... I asked a friend to use his computer, went to he online shop manual address and translated the code, and throwed this question on NPORA. But nothing else than it, he's got a veery slowwwww internet connection.... ;)

    My 94 flashed the check engine light twice, then after a while it came on again and didn't off anymore. I checked the code and it's a 32 - EGR function. I just noticed a little lack of power. I have to go back to my town tomorrow, 100 miles away and down hill. Do ya think it will do any damage? I won't be able to repair it here. No time. :unsure:

    We have a small communitie in Yahoo! Groups, at Pathfinder BR, we're about 30 Pathfinder owner's in Brazil and used to change some information. I think there are 3 or 4 in RS.

    These guys from NPORA are great, but ... PQP... they find Pathfinders in the junkyard like we find VWs, Fiats, Fords... :lol:

    welcome  :beer:

     

    someone mentioned the NGV/petroleum systems before.. i beleive it was some of our friends down under somewhere... you can always start a thread and tell us all about it.. gas is probably gonna become reality here in a few years.. MAYBE..

    what's your total range on both fuels?

    I guess it was me... and someone from Argentina...

     

    I'm gonna get it in my Path soon... now I'm broke... :(

     

    I'm spending around US$250 with gas, so it's gonna be worthy, one year spending half of it and it'll be paid :P
