I'm a newby

[Guest pathOHIOfinder]

Greetings fellow pathy enthusiasts. I bought a Pathfinder nearly a month ago and since that time I have a hard time not spending everything I have making it a true off-roader. I'm going to need a lot of advice and words of wisdom, because i am converting from a sports car over to the 4x4 scene.

FIRST QUESTION: I put on some 15x8 AR wheels and before the snow hits and before i tackle some of the muddy trails here in ohio i want to know what would be my best bet for tires if i just re-index the torsion bars. would 31's be sweet? would 32's fit with minor trimming? should i just lift it first? impart of your wisdom.

SECOND QUESTION: The idle on my pathy is driving me nuts. when it is cold, it will idle consistent, however once it has been driven for 10 minutes or so, the idle becomes highly variable, ranging from 300 rpms to 1300 rpms in about 3 seconds while sitting. I played with the vac lines and that helped a little, sprayed some carb cleaner around the throttle body, and it changed the idle. is it a gasket or the vacs? what do you think? again, impart of your wisdom. :type:

Im in the canton/akron area. That would be awesome if we could hook up some time. I really don't even know where any trails are up here. :confused:
