Took it out and cleaned it, no better. New sensor has been ordered. Flushed the coolant as well, since that probably was neglected too. I am dreading having to do the timing belt and what not as I am almost sure they didn't do that.

Wow, that is perfect info, thank you so very much!! I looked today at all of the connectors, vacuum lines and sensors on top of the motor and disconnected then canned air them all out. No visible cracks, but it may be a good idea to go get some hose and cut to length on all the same sizes...

No battery disconnect. Did that before and that was a completely different feel than this is. I did how ever charge the battery and it seems to have happened after that. Where is this sensor located? Any pics would be great.

Thanks Rod! Today she threw a p1400, and stumbles at idle pretty bad, drives fine after i get going but good lord it looks like I can't drive a manual transmission vehicle the way it lunges. Any ideas on this one? A quick google showed nothing but results for montero sports, which can be...

Great info, I will probably change the fluid again in 10-15k miles, as it was black when he was draining it. I'll just follow those instructions next time for that. Went camping again with some family this week in Big Lake Arizona. While there wasn't any trails or hard driving, it was very very...

My rear shocks were completely blown out and the truck bounced from one speed bump to the next, this new setup solved that issue. As for the ride overall, it doesn't seem too stiff to me, and handles much better on turn in, but I am used to vehicles with coilovers so maybe I am biased. It is...

That was for transmission flush and fill, plus t-case only. i think the trans was 240 alone. I figured i would do the diffs myself :) Never got to run that trail in the jeep, but then again i've only been snowboarding there a few times. So I tackled the front springs and struts today. Much...

Thanks, coming from my bang up drifting career (basically broke something every round), I learned early on to not sweat the issues and have a good time. I shall be giving MS a call monday to ask about the speedo cluster for sure <3 I did the rear lovell springs and bilstein struts today, I...

I'm quite sure i'll be visiting the body armor soon. I've had a few close calls off roading the drift car, and the bash plate saved my motor. I am quite excited to try and tackle that snow again soon as the lift and tires are on, this time with pics and or vids. I didn't get to chat, as he...

Pics should be fixed

Awesome info, and advice EyeInTheSky and Michael Brown, much appreciated. I'll give that site a look over for the cluster, as well as flush and or change the drivetrain related fluids. I am probably going to tackle the timing belt as well, since it was probably ignored. The pics I tried to use...

I wanted much better shoes for it, and saw after reading many many threads here that 285/75r16s would fit stock or lifted with minimal to no trimming. Opened the poor wallet and purchased the following: Bilstein shocks - Front...

Epic second post time. Ok, after an exhaustive search over the past week of owning this thing, trial and error, and learning what the shady previous owners of the Monty did to hide issues, I've fixed some of these, but some are still giving me major problems. I'll leave the solved ones here in...

The Full Monty: Starting with a bone stock 125k mile silver 2003 3rd gen Montero Limited. This thread will house my breaks, fixes, frustrations and triumphs. The History: To start, I come from the performance car world (10 years of drifting and 2 seasons of Formula Drift to be specific)...

Awesome, thats kind of what I was thinking. OME kit it is!

For some reason the post deleted :( Do you think you could fit a 275 or 85 series tire with those same wheels and offset? A few other posts on here say you can fit the 285/75/16s stock, but with the 0 offset that may contact some fender.
