So i got my pathy back up and running,but i have idle issues, these were also before the truck started to crank no start so when i fixed the dizzy and it started i adjusted the timing to where it was stable but after like half a day of the car sitting off,the idle went to 2k when you decel in neutral rpm takes a while to drop, when the car started back (2 days ago) i thought the idle was just something with the dizzy because it happened like 3 days before the no start incident but apparently it wasn't because now it starts fine but idles badly and struggles to rev down

Hey guys just wondering if anyone has had this same issue? My AC in the 97 doesn't blow any air on any setting I replaced to blower motor and checked the fuse but nothing. Any ideas or has anyone had a similar issue? It sometimes will work randomly every couple of months. The air that does blow through from wind is cold. So it still works just don't blow.

So I bought a rejected and abandoned WD21 Pathfinder in May and I named him Tanner. Tanner has been through hell and highwaters when it comes to everything since he had 345 thousand miles on him when I bought him. He is my first car ever and I love the truck to death. But recently I was on my way to pick up my girlfriend and Tanner broke down. Hard. As I was going uphill he started backfiring so badly (sounded like Anti Lag or two step loud) and I lost all power. I tried turning him over and all he did was backfire I managed to back my way partially downhill and spin him around. I did and I popped the clutch and he fired right back up but as soon as I stepped on the gas, boom dead. I found out that my distributor was gone and I thought it initially was the timing belt. I replaced the timing belt and distributor but the sad thing is, none of it fixed him. He's been sitting in the apartment complex I live in for two weeks now and already inpounded once. I am so desperate for help right now. I got a mobile mechanic to come look at it and he almost ran after I corrected distributor wiring but he didn't. I want my pathy back and running as when I do, I plan on giving him to my girlfriend as her first car. I need help on what to do. I wanna swap a supercharged VG33 into it from an Xterra to make more power. I know it may sound silly of me to want to keep him running but he holds special value since he's my first car, first stickshift I ever drove, first car my girlfriend ever drove, and it conquered Devil's Canyon on mount Evans forwtbtey no problem with an offroading noob. I wouldn't care of he died at 200K but 350K is honerable and he deserves to keep living as he also has zero rust on the chassis's. Thanks for anybody reading this post.
