2006 NISSAN PATROL front drive shaft

Inspection
Check wheel shaft for signs of binding when turned in a twisting
motion. Also check for cracks or damage.
Installation
+Before positioning drive shaft in axle case, pack shaft joint with
recommended grease. Refer to MA section (``Fluids and
Lubricants'', ``RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS'').
+Install drive shaft.
Insert the drive shaft with the ¯at surface facing up.

3. Install pressure gauge.
4. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
5. Check oil pressure with engine running under no-load.
Engine
rpmApproximate discharge pressure

Oil Pump
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
1. Disconnect battery terminal.
2. Drain engine oil.
3. Drain coolant from radiator and cylinder block. Refer to MA
section (``Changing Engine Coolant'', ``ENGINE MAINTE-
NANCE'').
4. Remove radiator shroud.
5. Remove drive belts. Refer to MA section (``Checking Drive
Belts'').
6. Remove crankshaft pulley and front upper and lower belt cov-
ers. Refer to EM section (``TIMING BELT'').
7. Remove oil pan. Refer to EM section (``OIL PAN'').
8. Remove oil strainer.
9. Remove oil pump assembly.
10. Installation is in reverse order of removal.
+Before installing oil pump, remove liquid gasket from mating
surface of oil pump using a scraper.
Be sure liquid gasket in grooves is also removed.
+Remove liquid gasket from mating surface of cylinder block.
+Clean all traces of liquid gasket using white gasoline.

Cooling Fan (Crankshaft driven)
DISASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
+Do not release the drive belt tension by removing the fan/water
pump pulley.
+Fan coupling cannot be disassembled and should be replaced
as a unit. If front markj
Fis present, install fan so that side
markedj
Ffaces the front.
+Install the drive belt only after the fan and fan coupling to water
pump ¯ange bolts/nuts have been properly torqued.
+Proper alignment of these components is essential. Improper
alignment will cause them to wobble and may eventually cause
the fan to separate from the water pump causing extensive
damage.
INSPECTION
Check fan coupling for damage, oil leakage and bent bimetal.
Cooling Fan (Motor driven)
Cooling fan is controlled by ECM. For details, refer to ``Cooling
Fan'', ``TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC 28'' in EC section.
