Beware Of Abuja Mechanics ! by josieboy55(m): 5:14pm On Dec 03, 2014
This afternoon i decided to go out wit my car, all of a sudden the check engine light was flashing and d car vibrating so i decided to drive out to the mechanic .

i asked him what could be the cause of d blinking light and vibration? , he boldy said d adjuster . i laughed within myself cos wat d Bleep does d adjuster has to do with this . i took my car drove back home went straight to the internet and googled d problem.

All signs pointed towards plug or coil . i opened d bonnet and tightened all d coils , guess what

check engine light went off no more vibration.

my first car was a honda accord 1994 model and it ws destroyed by mechanics . didn't use it up to 6 months .
now them wan come spoil my Honda Accord 2005 model

Any issues u ve wit ur car please check d internet b4 giving it to Trial and Error Mechanics .

Plugs or coils do not get unscrewed by them selves.

If you looked around your mech's workshop, you would have noticed a neat tokunbo camry discreetly parked in a corner. That was your mech's x'mas gift to himself....he hasn't finished paying for it. That was where you were supposed to come in.

You penny pinching miser, you grin
