Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I have a 94 NJ 3.0, The engine management light comes on randomly (airflow meter code, replaced Intake air control motor) although this is in no way effecting the engine when it lights up... Secondly after the car has been driven and turned off, when you go to start it, it has a slight fire and if i...

I have done a bit of a search and cant find what i am looking for, The engine light has started to come on in my nj 3.0. the car is still running great, im wanting to know if there is a way of retrieving the diag code manually without a plug in..I have done this before on other cars and cant seem to...

Injectors was definantly a problem, 1 was running at about 5% and the other 5 were all good and cleaned up first wash, the injector in question took 6 washes and is still only bout 90%, i put them back in anyway and will organise a reco set sometime soon. Quoted $198 to do all six, but when the guy ...

Thanks for the advice guys, injectors are out and fetting cleaned in an hour or so.. I have had the bonnet up in the dark, couldn't find a stray spark anywhere, and i did replace the seals for the injectors into manifold as these came with the VRS set. Will Tonka later this arvy with wether or not t...

Had the whole lot apart, heads got recoed, not using any water/coolant at all, oil is clean, not blowing any smoke, compression is good.

I have 3.0l Pajero, had a miss and needed a top up of water once a week, Did the heads up, did timing belt, plugs, leads, cap and rotor. still has the exact same miss, compression ave of bout 165 per pot. auto elec cant find any elec problems. the miss is constant from idle right through to high ran...

Had the heads done up on my nj, due to it using a bit of water and the fact that it has 280k on it, did the timing belt, plugs, leads, rotor button and cap while i was at it, it still has a very distinctive miss and lacks power. Compression averages bout 165psi per pot, havn't had it on the road yet...

I have blown the head gasket in my 94 gls, Am thinking it will be more econimical to buy a low km engine then to get the heads done (has 280k on it). What are the timing belt intervals on a 3.0ltr? what sort of $ is reasonable for a second hand motor?
Thanks for any advice

Just wondering what is the average life expectancy of my 3.0ltr, it gets an oil change every 5000klm, using quality oil of course. It doesn't blow smoke and uses pretty much no oil between changes, it has 280k on the clock. my main concern is are these engines prone to probs later in life? and is it...

Hey all, does anyone know of a person wrecking or a place where i can buy the plastic handle for seat adjustment (bloody kids think it is a handle for climbing in) and the back right window latch for my NJ, wreckers done seem to keen to seperate them from the seat or glass.

Thanks
Benny

I thought there would have been a few more pictures of Pips (Just Customs / ABT) old shorty, its sold now, anyone got any new pictures of it?

Coolant creates some wild smoke on start up if there is a head gasket problem..

If you have trouble workin out the torsion bars (you should be alright with all the info on here) if you live around my area on the northside i will give you a hand to ajust them.

Not 100% sure, but as far as I know, there is no hot water control valve. Hot water flows through the heater all the time. The way the heat into the cabin is regulated is that the air bypasses the heater coil, so maybe the connection to the bypass flap in the air ducting has fallen off or become di...

I have a 94 nj gls, the heater blows barely luke warm air, the thermostat is new and the car runs at normal running temp, i have flushed the heater and water flows through freely, the fan works as do the controls, is there a heater tap on the motor somewhere? when i dissconected the hoses for the fl...

Do i have to bodylift my NJ gls if i put 32s on it. Dont want to do any un needed mods, if i don't have to, this is a family camping and day trip 4wd.

Thanks for any advice

Hey Just bought an NJ in very good cond, seems to build up pressure rather quick in fuel tank, doesn't matter if it quarter full or nearly full there is always a resonable amount of pressure when fuel cap is removed. Is it hard to access the tank breathers or am i going to have to remove the tank to...

Its for the missus, and she drives like a nanna. Maybe take to fraser or something, no real offroad driving more of a family car.

Got a new Bub on the way, actually due in couple days, Getting a new car and narrowed it down to a VT or 97ish Paj, wondering if anyone can give me a rough comparison in fuel consumption.
Thanks

Thanx Mick

Thanks for the feed back everyone, i'll pass it on to my mate.

I've got a mate who is wanting to know of some places and rough prices of where he can get a body lift done on his 2000 GU Wagon. (he lives in BRISBANE) It currently has 4x41mm adjustable tough dog shocks and a 2" spring lift, he's looking at getting either a 2" or 4" body lift. Any i...

Hey Jamie was just checking out sum of Tims footage from this years events, it's pretty good.

I wonder how well sum of these people would go without there spotters in comp conditions, from what i can see the navi is a very critical componant in EVERY round for a team. When you make the world finals, You thank EVERYONE who got you there. Simple.............(or do well in Aus finals)

Jamie (not not) i'm guessin you didnt get the dvds of Tim (as he wasn't there). I'll give you a call when snail mail delivers them.
