Mate, get rid of that thing and do yourself a favour and get a 3.0l mate.
The 4.2’s are overheating cast iron slugs and will give you trouble.
You will never look back.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

Haha I feel the love, well I guess in 20000kms you’ll probably have a new 3l yourself.
