Nissan Pathfinder (2011 year). Manual — part 305

EC-494

< PREPARATION >

[VK56DE]

PREPARATION

Fuel filler cap adapter
i.e.: (MLR-8382)

Checks fuel tank vacuum relief valve opening
pressure

Socket wrench

Removes and installs engine coolant temperature
sensor

Oxygen sensor thread
cleaner
i.e.: (J-43897-18)
(J-43897-12)

Reconditions the exhaust system threads before
installing a new oxygen sensor. Use with anti-
seize lubricant shown below.

a: 18 mm diameter with pitch 1.5 mm for Zirco-
nia Oxygen Sensor
b: 12 mm diameter with pitch 1.25 mm for Tita-
nia Oxygen Sensor

Anti-seize lubricant
i.e.: (Permatex

TM

133AR or equivalent
meeting MIL specifica-
tion MIL-A-907)

Lubricates oxygen sensor thread cleaning tool
when reconditioning exhaust system threads.
