Hi there,
I've just made the arrangements to buy a used, 5 speed, 1995 Pathfinder XE, and there are a couple of items on it that I'd like to take care of when we get it.
First, the tach doesn't work. It will move up gradually as you drive it, but never comes down, and doesn't rise with engine speed, it just kind of gradually moves higher until it's beyond redline. Any thoughts, known fixes, how-to's, etc.?
Second, the drivers door has had some use, and doesn't seem to close quite as smoothly as it probably should. Is there some adjustment in the hinges that we can deal with? Is it possible to just adjust the latch on the door frame to make the closure a little better?
Other than these things, and a little bit of rust, it seems to be in great shape. Rides good, shifts nicely. A ticking from the engine is a lifter in need of replacement, there's also a guide bearing in the clutch that's noisy, the dealer is going to take care of both items before we pick it up.
Thanks for any help anyone can provide! Stephen
