Towncivilian Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 (edited) Vacuumed the interior. Also sprayed some silicone on the weather stripping since it was starting to stick when left in the sun for hours. I'll be using some dielectric grease instead next time, and rubbing it in lightly. Better than having a bunch of nasty smelling silicone spray everywhere. Edited May 29, 2011 by Towncivilian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than the smell, how well does it work/last? Think that I'm going to try the blower motor cleansing thingie tomorrow along with lubing the window tracks. They seem to be getting slower as the humid days are upon us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think that I'm going to try the blower motor cleansing thingie tomorrow along with lubing the window tracks. They seem to be getting slower as the humid days are upon us. I don't know. I read on BITOG that some use it twice a year and it seems to work well for them, but like I said, get some dielectric grease or something so the smell isn't bad. The interior doesn't smell at all, until someone opens a door then it smells for a little bit. For the trunk weather stripping I sprayed through the various holes, but ehh... not sure yet whether it'll do anything useful. This is probably the first time the weather stripping has ever been sprayed with some sort of protectant. I also got lazy and didn't spray all of the weather stripping, and I also thought spraying everything would cause the smell to be worse. Be careful of your choice of spray silicone as some can eat through plastic, etc. CRC Heavy Duty Silicone Spray seems to be ok. If you're unsure, spray some in a Styrofoam cup; if it eats through it, don't use it. I also need to lube my window tracks. I'll probably use the rest of the silicone spray can for that soon, and then switch to something else for the weather stripping.

JamesRich Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Went to the pick a part and pulled some jeep springs, then came home and put them on the pathy. As soon as I jacked it up the broken spring fell out, I guess I was lucky it stayed in there for the week my wife was driving it around like that. I miss my pathy, its been over a week since I drove it! If tapping the blower motor made it come on... My money sais the motor is your issue. I have one of those control panels like that... if only I had all the other needed pieces to make it work in my truck I have the whole system in my 94 parts truck, and it did work but I don't feel like pulling out the whole dash and blower box to change it out. The manual system works so why mess with it. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nunya Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 I'm too cheap to buy the rest of the crap and too lazy to pull it out of a j/y truck right now anyway... THEN have to install it all! Eff that, not on my priority list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devonianwalk Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Pulled the blower motor assembly apart. Should I be disappointed that I had minimal leaves/crap in there? Oh well, at least I know that it's all clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sewebster Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Peeled back the carpet and looked at the hole underneath the driver's feet. The exhaust pipe is so close to the body there... seems like it will just rust over again when I put some sheet in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping there would be some sort of debris in the cage causing some ticking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precise1 Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Yesterday actually, but I wire wheeled the flaking black paint and zinc plating off of my SuperLift UCAs, surface treated the steel with tool black, primered them and finished them with gloss black enamel. I refinished the spindles also so I'll probably assemble them with the new bushings and hardware today so they are ready for installation.

ahardb0dy Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 put 10 gallons in it and drove 61 miles to junkyard and back and watched the fuel gauge go from just over half to just over the quarter mark !! As I posted in the re-keying thread, picked up 15 locks from 3 different pathfinders and a few Sentra's for my re-keying project, have the 2 door locks re-keyed just have to get new chrome outer covers than swap them in. Next project will be removing the gallon's worth of love bugs that are plastered all over the front of the PF! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know when you are back and ready to do all that. We can set up a weekend and I could run up there and help you. I've taken mine apart enough to know how it's done. Then maybe we can hit those military trails you were talking about to test it out. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
