It is fast looking like your IP is bad, but having said that most internal faults should show up a code, do you have a Nissan dealer near that you can take it in and put it on their diagnostic computer? Rick

Local dealer 40 kms away still recovering from last flood. Too far to any beyond that.

Previously the engine light would register during misfires on acceleration, even if they weren't retained. Light works when you switch ignition on, so I guess it's OK. Might have to start this diagnosis over again from the basics, if and when our weather ever clears. Roy

Found a reconditioned IP online for AU$2,300. Not many of these trucks left over here and parts have become difficult to source on this side of the continent. Might be the time to accept upgrading my daily drive. Roy

Wow that sounds expensive, what is that in £ sterling? Rick

According to https://www.xe.com/currencyconverter...rom=AUD&To=GBP, that would be 1,297.0534 British Pounds. Not a fortune and maybe even cheap as far as classic restoration projects go. Roy
