    Welcome to the forum. The 2.8 is a great little engine, with a few quirks, but it will get you where you want to go. http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...hings-to-check
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    Hello and welcome to the forum.
    As I lay there looking up, taking in the spectacular view that was the night sky and the multitude of stars I asked myself, where did my tent go?

    Thanks for the link mudnut,
    I am experiening a couple of those problems already and read some excellent info here.
    The previous owner just replaced the Tensioner Bearing as it almost totally collapsed he got to it before doing any other damage.
    I noticed the harmonic balancer wobbling so about to check that out its a common problem to.
    Hard starting after hot which I believe is caused by the old battery in it as it glows and starts well when cold.
    Slight oil weeping at the top of rocker cover, appears to come from the vacuum pump there's thin oil leaking onto the turbo not good.
    Got my work cut out already but it was a good buy I cn afford to fix it.
    Cheers mate.

    G'day mate and welcome to the forum.
    2005 GU IV ST 3.0. Snorkel. Roof rack. Awning. Spots. Welded I/C. Dual batteries & VSR. UHF. Barn door hinge extension. Roof top spot lights. Rear drawers. 2" lift. NADS. EGT and boost gauges. Trans temp and water temp gauges. Provent 200 catch can. Rear ladder


    And crawling on the planet's face, some insects called the human race. Lost in time. And lost in space... and meaning.
