    My spare was unbalanceable so Four Wheel Parts warrantied it out. They needed back the DOT number and a cross section of the tread...so I started cutting.

    Nissan O2 sensors are in and working...

    I recently had an O2 sensor crap out, so instead of spending $120-180 on a new one from various land rover vendors, I did some research and found out that 87-88 Nissan Pulsars use the same O2 sensor as the early Discos and RRCs. The difference is in the plug. I found that the Bosch part number...

    How do I test the TPS?

    Well I replaced the fuel pump and the pressure is back up and it seems to have a lot more power and gets better mileage, but my throttle response and idle still have issues. Vibration at idle, but the second i give it any gas even to increase the RPM to 900 instead of 700 it stops shaking. Same...

    I feel like my '95 D1 has inconsistant power. By this I mean, it easily pulls to 70mph in 4th, while sometimes it feels like its hitting a brick wall in 3rd gear trying to accelerate onto a highway. Sometimes it feels like it can accelerate faster in top gear instead of kicking down as it just...
