I figured this would be something different mainly cause I am in Ireland and these Y61 Patrols here are starting to get super rare.I am going to update here on my current Y61 and future projects.I will be working on any Nissan 4x4s here and other makes but mainly Nissans and the Y61 trolls.
So to start....
It's a strange feeling for me going from a bulletproof almost 600k 2004 well minded Patrol (well documented in the ZD30 section over the years here) on all it's first day parts inc diesel pump and then going to this 07 one in this state of neglect😅 talk about a shock to the system 🤣 this thread will show you just how reliable and unreliable Patrols can be dependent on owners and level of care taken.
So it starts when I found it sitting outside a business premises a year and 3 months ago,the owner couldn't get it restarted and with only 280 k onboard it had already suffered an injection pump failure.This was only going to be one of the issues with this very neglected Patrol and Fast forward to now today and I can tell you that this lovely looking patrol was going to be a minefield of problems for me and a lot of work and my labour/time to put it right.Had I had known the amount of work it was going to be I might have passed it by 🙈(Not really) 😅
I have been on this forum sinse 2008 which is a long time and have posted about all my Patrols over the years mainly on the ZD30 section. So I feel one of my Patrols (daly driver) deserves a thread here,and I feel this experience with this Patrol makes for a good story.
I have four Patrols now but let's keep on topic for now on this 07 one.😉👍
Well this one has the full black leather heated interior and all the usual extras inc sunroof and ABS etc.
It's a long story and a hell of a lot of work (still ongoing) so I will start it and update it when I can.Here are a few pics from home.We are in the highest point here in west limerick (1200ft above sea level) we get a lot of snow here in the winter considering it's Ireland.
