It's just dumping fuel...probably something stupid like I didn't fully clip in the coil, but I was too exhausted to troubleshoot any further. I like what your doing your all over these machines. I officially became the proud owner of 3 pathfinders the obsession started on Dec 24th 2018. On January 10th I rolled my runner before I could install the new suspension components sitting in my garage. Like an addiction (few weeks prior to the rollover) I found another 1 this one 2004 full load Chinook edition. So I bought it sight unseen it's a British Columbia pathfinder so virtually 00 rust. ontario editions frames are shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 (edited) Started and let it run for a while to allow some fluids to cycle through it, while simultaneously fully heating up the interior. Also did the same with the Suburban. Need to find a way to carve out some troubleshooting time to diagnose the clutch issue, which I hope is not the actual clutch!

It was a few weeks ago when I noticed the issue, hard shifts like the clutch was not fully disengaging, but in the couple shifts I made it was not consistent (but didn't seem like it a low hydraulic pressure issue) To be honest, I didn't have the time to play with it then. I noticed it after blacking out of the driveway, N to 1, then 1 to 2. But in a hurry I just backed up to the driveway the and pulled back in and hopped in another vehicle. Yesterday, I didn't drive it, just warmed it up and cycled it through gears without moving. Everything seemed fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Mine sits a lot assuming yours does as well? I had similar symptoms and just attribute it to the flywheel having rust on it. It will shudder on take off also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Nope, sadly it does not get much road time right now. Partially because with the parking layout at my place, two (out of 4) vehicles get boxed in and the surface where that happens is better suited for truck tires, that those of a car.

adamzan Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 I know that feeling. I have to keep a battery maintainer on it now otherwise it will just die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Same here, both the Pathy and the Suburban have maintainers on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Replaced alternator belt on the 2004 Xterra today. It flew off in the parking lot at work, but 2 little cords held on and I got home on that. Not fun in this cold, my hands were sticking to the pulleys and tools! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
