I know its a Nissan forum but I wouldn't go buying a 94 LWB truck with intermittent 4wd problems for the best part of a grand for off-road use and leave a solid swb 4x4 that seems in great mechanical order and perfect for off-road use sitting in the drive. A truck that nice deserves to be...

I had a problem in below freezing temps that started in big freeze last winter. Think it may have initially been bad diesel I picked up that didn't have winter additives for freezing temps. Still having intermittent problems when it gets below freezing. Have changed fuel filter before now but...

Well done. Unfortunately the new NCT testing crowd seem to be very picky compared to the crowd that used to do it.

Being serious, I would have thought that a fairly good price for heavy duty shocks. My experience with the basic Monroe heavy duty shocks I have is that they are a good product at a good price. Don't know anything about the specific ones you are looking at though.

That's shocking! :lol

Have Bosch pump. It is very strange. Usually only happens when it has been in and around freezing. But happened again this afternoon and it was 6 to 8 degrees all day. I had been driving along normally in 5th gear but slowed down by putting in the clutch and easing on the brake as there was a...

Since last winter T2 has been running very flat now and then. Generally it runs fine but now and then it just goes very flat and dead. If I stop and turn off the engine and start it up again it runs perfectly again. When it happens it revs fine if clutch is pressed but has no power when clutch...

Didn't need to this time. Went up no problem. When we get the snow and ice back .... :naughty

Thanks a lot for that info. :clap :clap

Might be possible to get waste oil from a restaurant but would I need to go through the process of using chemicals to make it into bio-diesel or can I just filter it.

So here's the latest on the slippery uphill saga. Got up to the field today. Snow and ice all gone, ground thawed out and very wet and slippy. Went straight up the hill in 4L in 2nd gear. I could feel a bit slip and wheels digging a bit in spots but it kept moving along nice and steady. So maybe...

I should have said that I am across the pond in Ireland. There's good prices on nothing here :( I know what an ibc is but whats "macro".

Would it be legal to put an L200 nudge bar on a Terrano? If its not original equipment or made specifically for a Terrano would it be against the regulations?

Interesting discussion. The Terrano 2 reg 2000 I have is definately not common rail. When you say you use waste veg oil is that after you mix chemicals with it to make bio-diesel and then filter it or do you just do the filtering process you mention? I don't know much about this subject but...

Have digital speedo so won't work for me so. I'm confused about the VIN number. You said you have the VIN number from a plate above the headlight. You are looking for the chassis number so I'm guessing if your looking on the chassis someplace. Someone on here must know where on the chassis to...

Sorry, did you just say "free speedo to any member who would pay for postage". Where in Ireland are you. I'm interested if the Mistral speedo from the 96 model will fit the Terrano 2 2000 model. But my suggestion to you would be to hang on to the second speedo depending on the type it is. Some...

Think my VIN plate is under the bonnett on the bulkhead as per zippys suggestion. Speedo on my T2 2000 reg is a nice bit out as well about 8 km per hour when doing 80 kmph. Yours does sound a bit excessive though. What wheels / tyres have you on. Could they be a bit smaller than stock size...

The nearest equivalent usually given for 30 x 9.50 x 15's is 235 / 75 / 15. But there is a bit of a difference. Kbkel is spot on. Put a 235/75/15 beside a 30/9.50/15 and you will see the latter is slightly taller and slightly wider. Like Kbkel's pic.-not a huge difference but you would...

The ground was frozen yesterday so would have gotten up the hill without too much bother. If its slippery again on Saturday I'll try the zig zag suggestions then. The staying in a lower gear, 2nd, didn't work on my original runs at it.

I was wondering about that. It may be that the passanger side front wheel was spinning but the drivers side was not. Definately in 4wd though. Have auto hubs and they do seem to be working on less slippy ground but will have to check them.
