@ Dumkele would suggest and insist you go for the toyota asides fuel economy, toyota parts are readily available, opel cars have phased out, and most of their parts and spares might not be available in circulation, like I said I'm just suggesting

(3) motor starter,. ,,but the if elecric pump is faulty you can steel move onless it change, and at times spark plugs may get cold or wet, it can also affect engine not starting, if you can lose them 4 warming a little and cleaning,den ritight them,,..then check ignition system,, d coils are they sparking light, the plugs wire ,ignition wires shud be check if there is partial currents or bridging with body earth, put them in other,,.

Check your fuel filter to make sure it is allowing fuel through it. Fuel filters can become clogged over time, and eventually it may not allow enough fuel through it to allow the engine to run. Changing fuel filters is much easier and less expensive than changing a fuel pump.
nice one

whenever u figure out that your car failed to start as a result of Starter problem just grab a small stone and tab the starter,
The car wil start.

Pleasee. People should be careful while experimenting with your cars. If you keep trying and trying. You might end up causing bigger issues. For example, there are some cars, that if the timing belt should cut and you keep trying to start it. It could lead to major engine issues. Sometimes it's better to just tow the car to a safe location to avoid lastma wahala and call a specialist. That is if you have confirmed that your battery is not the problem. It will even be a bit hard to do all these things in live traffic. Nice write up OP.

Hi autos Bay... I have a question but it doesn't relate to your topic.. I need a little advice on opel cars. I have one I'd like to buy but was advised against it. Please do you know any peculiar problems about it, fuel consumption, maintenance, parts etc.. And btw an opel vestra/Astra and a Toyota 'big for nothing', which do u thing will be a better option...... Thanks


First of all, I'm personally skeptical about the opel. You need to see how terrible the brand look when ageing.

I advice you go for Toyota (big for nothing) for some of these reasons.

1.) it's fuel consumption is ok
2.) the spare parts are readily available.
3.) the car is reliable.
4.) you can easily get mechanics that can fix it's faults when the need arises.
5.) the car has space and can serve as a good family car
6.) it has a good resale value and they can easily be obtained.
7.) it's Toyota.

With all I have mentioned above, the car get its own wahala oo. Everything is just big about the car...hence the nickname 'big daddy'. big headlamp, big brake light, boring dashboard etc.

Just ask yourself. Why the hell do I wanna buy and opel... then make ur conclusion. I hope this helps.
