Say Guys,It's nice to see some one else finally made the forklift connection. Now here's the kicker for ya'. Next time your talking to your nissan lift truck parts guy, ask him if he has parts and engine manual info for the PPU-240. It's a heavy duty fork lift made buy nissan that may stillbe in production, at least according to the guy at my local dealer. The thing about the PPU-240 is that it uses the P engine and not the P40 engine and is apparently still being produced some where in the U.S. They wouldn't tell me where, don't know why,people can be funny like that up here. However the gasket kit I got from them matched every thing exactly and the engine and parts manuals they had were definately different from theirmanuals for the units using the P40 engine. The only thing to be wary of is the prices of some of this stuff. Don't expect it to be cheaper just because it's comming from a forklift dealer instead of a car dealer. You may be in for a bit of a shock.Scooter

Hey scooter!   Great news! PPU-240 huh? Say, one quick way to tell the diff in a P-40 parts vs P is the cam shaft connection. The P has gears, one on main, one to the cam. The P-40 has a chain between the two.  As for *them* PLEASE give us the address, and or web sight. And PLEASE add it to our compatable parts section here:   http://groups.msn.com/NissanPatrolClubA ... parts.msnw   I would hate to see this info get lost in the hundreds of message posted here!   Grant
