    New Truck - '71 521

    Belts came out great man. Seat looks good as well. Nice job. -Pidge
  2. I’ve used the Permatex stuff on my older Frontier. Follow the instructions about set up time and you’ll be good. -Pidge
  3. Worst case I’ve used a very strong Manet in the past on another truck of mine.
  4. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏼👍🏼

    Cool looking door cards.
  7. No it doesn’t Mike. I’ve got the little tube off the side of the block and no vent on my valve cover.
  8. My J13 has the same cap.
  9. Thanks for sharing. I’ve always like those G20’s/Sentra Ser’s.
  10. Areostar…..I remember them. Saw one today actually in my area, both I use to ride in as a teenager blew trannys on the highway lol. Still like them though. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
  11. Well I took the door panel off yesterday after buying some silicone spray. I lubed the main track the best I could, it’s a pain without removing the entire motor and assembly. I also ran some of those blue shop rags with a small flat head screwdriver up and down the vertical channels. After that I sprayed some of the same lube lightly in the vertical channels. Well you know what…shit worked. I’m happy and funny it seems to work faster than the back ones. Oh well I rarely use those, but I’m just happy the driver one is functioning a ton better. Thanks for everyone’s input, I hope not to burn out another motor. 310,000km on this old gal, but I try to look after her. Thanks guys. -Pidge
  12. Power windows. Motors fairly new, about a year old now I’d say.
  13. Thanks guys. With the door card off it’s not easy to tell if anything is outta sorts. From what I can tell it’s operating normally. I’ll give the channels a clean out and see if that improves anything. I’ll also have a look for that silicone spray. Thanks again.
  14. We being car guys and gals, I need some info. I’ve got sticky/slow windows in my ‘15 Frontier. Driver side to be exact. I’ve been reading to use some lube in the vertical rubber channels the glass moves up and down in. Anyone ever done this? Would it not leave a mess on the glass? What lube and process have you guys used? I hoping to get the glass to move like it did similar to new if I can. Anyone ever messed around with this? -Pidge

    Problem starting

    I sorta kinda just went thru something similar. Crank the motor till the cows come home. Fuel filter was dam near empty, maybe 3/16 in the bottom of the filter and the Nikki carb window told me no fuel in the bowl. Might have around the same as the filter when I say that about the site glass. I filled the carb with some trufuel, that’s all I had handy. She fired up and eventually pulled gas from the tank and ran normal for 10 minutes. I have not dug into the oil, but I’m hoping the pump is okay and not weeping gas into the block and getting into the oil. Mines never done this as well. I’m gonna keep an eye out for any change on the level. Side note, it’s been hotter than the devils dick here in Ontario Canada so I’m unaware if that would cause any evaporation or draw back to the tank somehow. Pidge
