Car Talk / Re: yes by samblaks(m): 4:36am On Dec 22, 2017
QuintusLentulus:
I have a serious issue with my 2004 toyota camry. The stalling is out of this world especially when climbing the slightest hill. I dare not even try to overtake except in a slope. My engine revs high when started in the morning till after 2 minutes before dropping down, at times it revs by itself without even raising it. This doesnt even bother me as much as the sluggish movement does. The annoying part is that drivers behind you will be insulting you as if you are high or you dont know how to drive, they wont understand that your car has problems.

Could it be a transmission problem? Engine problem Sensor problrm?

Gurus in the house please i need help. My place of work is bery far, the car is of serious help to me.
I experienced a similar issue sometimes ago with my 1998 Camry. It's very annoying. Even my regular mechanic couldn't detect the fault until I took it to a mechanic village somewhere here in my axis. The mechanic started the engine of the car, troutle it and listened to the sound. And concluded that the exhaust system was blocked. He called a Panel Beater to remove the exhaust, took it [s][/s]to an electrical welding man who cut somewhere on the exhaust an removed something that looked like a segmented pieces of iron zinc, welded the place back. The exhaust was mounted back, and the sound became normal with my car now firing from all cylinders.

Car Talk / Re: Total Quartz 9000 by samblaks(m): 7:29am On Dec 02, 2017
nurey:


You for kukuma tell op make him buy red oil, since that is even way cheaper than Quartz 5000.

Op use the Quartz 9000, it has the recommended oil weight for your car 5w30 and am sure it's rating will also protect your engine. I hope the camry is a tokunbo vehicle not a Nigerian used ooo.
well, whichever you feel like using between the two, it all depends on your choice. But, I have been using quartz 5000 joined with ABRO Oil treatment for my 98 model camry v6 for years now, and the car is serving well even with good fuel economy. But then, qaurtz 9000 is better.

It is worth learning some simple maintenance tasks to make sure you're not constantly moving in and out of your mechanic workshop for problems you could easily fix on your own.

Watching a youtube video and asking a skilled
friend is a great way to start some simple tasks like changing tyres,checking oil and coolant levels.

Of course, there are certain tasks that will require your mechanic assistance.
Don't ignore a warning light or an unfamiliar smell or sound coming from the car, and if you're unsure what the problem is,then take it to an expert.

So how many of these 10 simple car safety checks can you do?

1)Change oil and oil filter

2)How to check and top up with radiator fluid (coolant)

3)Change a flat tyre

4)Change a wiper blade

5)Check the engine oil level

6)Top up engine oil

7)Top up windscreen washer fluid

8 )Open the bonnet

9)Check brake fluid level

10)Check for cuts and bulges on tyre.

Do you have any addition to the lists above?

Car Talk / Re: Let's Talk About Automatic Transmission Fluid (gear Oil) by samblaks(m): 2:47am On Nov 29, 2017
Car manufacturers normally specify the kind of ATF to be used for cars with automatic gearboxes. Take for example, Toyota cars do have the recommended ATF inscribed on the stick that you use to gauge the gear oil. Either D1, D11 or D111, as the case may be. So, I will simply advice that before you change your car ATF, kindly check the specification(s) on the dip stick.

The Alaba people know that LG is more accepted in the market and that is the reason they are riding on LG fame. Only people who who are not current will by Alaba version. Go to the right place and you will get an authentic LG TV.
I give it to you bro base on my experience. Especially if you get your Original LG electronics at their SHOWROOM. You enjoy best quality with warranty.

These guys are vexing bad bad o hehe

Have you heard of tstv? It's a new TV network in Nigeria that is believed to overtake almighty Gotv and Dstv the price is way cheap as they said its around 3000-5000 for the decoder.

Don't start looking for where to buy tstv yet o because they haven't launched officially yet till October.

But we hear things like they will be available in Lagos and other states first when they launch.

I have been looking for where to faint since, Gotv better do something or else.... Let me no say anything first

It is a good news indeed. And I am one of the people patiently waiting for the commencement of their operations here in Nigeria by next month. I learnt that it's owned by the richest man in Zimbabwe who has studied the market very well, and has put in place all the necessary machineries to compete with the likes of dstv and co. and will even provide better services for intending customers through cheap decoder acquisition and affordable subscription rate. Free broadcast of some LIVE football matches especially the EPL and NPFL. The sector is gradually opening up just like telecommunications sector, and dstv's long term dominance will soon be eroded. Welcome development.

Romance / Re: This Man Just Discovered The Unthinkable Before His Wedding by samblaks(m): 7:28pm On Sep 23, 2017
modelmike7:
I have sat on this for weeks. I know the man (he is my client) but I don’t know the woman in person. The man is confused (I told him he shouldn’t be. I certainly wouldn’t be). He has permitted me to share this here without disclosing his identity.

He and his woman have been together for 7 months. He is an accountant with a multinational construction company.

When he started a relationship with this woman, she advanced a ‘no sex’ rule as the basis of being in the relationship. The man readily agreed. He said he loved her and was planning to marry her. So what’s the point hurrying for what he would have for life?

The relationship blossomed. It was the love of his life. For the first time, he said, he was completely comfortable with a woman enough to want to marry her.

Four months into the relationship, he took her to his parents and elder siblings. They all liked her. She took him to her parents. They both liked him. Their respective pastors also approved of their plan to get married. A date was fixed for the marriage.

Then they started the tests. The HIV test came negative for both of them. Their genotype was compatible. The guy said he was so happy and relieved cos he didn’t want anything to be a barrier. He said the lady’s character and lifestyle were so agreeable with his. Their strong Christian faith also matched. The guy did not want to miss this gem.

Then it occurred to him that they do not know their reproductive fertility status, especially as they have not been having sex. The guy discussed with his woman and they both agreed to do a fertility test.

The chose the clinic of a consultant gynaecologist who happens to be a relative of the guy’s mother. They went for the result on the very day the printer delivered their wedding invitation card.

The doctor was very happy, the guy said. This made him believe, even before he was told, that they were both fertile. He was right. The doctor happily announced to the guy, whom he sees as his nephew, that he is fertile and has no reproductive issues. He said same about the woman but added, very happily, that , in fact, she is already pregnant! (For doctors and medical people in the house, is it ethical for a doctor to announce a pregnancy test result when none was required by the patients? Does fertility test for the woman necessarily involve a pregnancy test?).

The doctor did not know he had just dropped a bombshell. He looked at how shocked they couple looked and wondered aloud what was wrong.

The couple left in silence. The guy says the lady was just as shocked and nonplussed as he was.

HERE ARE THE ISSUES:

*What this means is that while insisting on the no sex rule with her man, she was sexually active elsewhere and became pregnant with another man 5 months into the relationship with the man she wants to marry.

*The guys says to worsen issues the lady has suggested aborting the 2months pregnancy. The guy would have none of that. Says he has never procured one and would never support it. Says its pure murder and can block her from future pregnancy.

*The other option is for the lady to have the child and let the father, whoever he is, to have it while they continue with the marriage. But the man is certain that his mother won’t let him go ahead and marry her if she knows she is pregnant for another man.

*Or to live a lie and pretend that the baby is his.

*Or to call it off with the lady and cut off completely from her.

*Please note that the guy has paid EVERYTHING on the marriage list, including the bride price. If the guy ends things now, would it be divorce or just ending a relationship??

*Finally (and this one is for me), is it possible for a mature woman to be 2 months pregnant and not know

If there is any post that requires matured and thoughtful comments/opinions(even if few), it is this one.

Thank you.
...why would the man proceed with the wedding things when the trust has been broken by the purported wife? God actually used the Doctor to expose the 'Jezebel' in the lady to the innocent man. Even if he goes ahead with that lady in his life, he will continue to nurse the wound, and that may lead to the marriage hitting the rock sooner. Because he will keep on suspecting the lady there by sacrificing his own inner peace. So bros, get the evidence from the Doctor and if both of you are not convinced, go to another medical laboratory to confirm the pregnancy. And if the result still shows positive, then, involve the necessary people. There is no need asking her unnecessary questions because it wasn't the Holy Spirit that planted it there. Then, go ahead and retrieve the already paid dowry and kindly let her go while you search for your missing rib. Na God show you sey you be wan marry an unfaithful woman wey go ruin your life and your relationship with your God. 'If at all you are a faithful follower'. Good luck.

Explorers:
A minister's official ride.
...I have long noticed that most of the leaders in the developed Western world normally live a kind of low profiled lifestyles. Probably because of the better governmental structures already in place. There, you could see a prime minister boarding public transportation, their children attending public institutions, with some not even having single house to themselves after leaving offices. Just because they are being watched. If you accumulate wealth suspiciously during your reign, you can be probed without any immunity covering you, which can as well lead to your impeachment/removal as the case may be. The President does not have control over other organs of government. So, you're forced to keep it cool. Else, nemesis can still catch up with you years after leaving office. What do we have in our continent, AFRICA, including my beloved father land, NIGERIA? May God baptize our leaders(rulers) with better brains and fear of him, so that our countries can move forward with cries of the masses being listened to. God bless Nigeria, God bless Nairaland.

Car Talk / Re: The Day It Almost Got Stolen. Learn!!! by samblaks(m): 2:07am On Sep 23, 2017
Thanks for the info. I had a similar experience at the popular Wuse market in Abuja couple of months ago. After closing from work and was driving towards Berger junction, though, my glasses at the front were both down and was in a traffic congestion. A young guy walked up to me and said "oga water dey comot from your motor" I was about to look, but my mind suddenly reminded me that my Air Conditioner was not on, and my radiator was not having issue, so how could water be coming out from my car. While he was still talking of which I never gave attention, I just looked at my side mirror by the passenger's side and noticed that there was someone standing in between the back and the front door probably waiting to pick my handset which was connected to the car charger. Immediately I sighted the guy, I quickly raised my glasses up. Seeing me doing that, the two of them just disappeared in no time. All these happened in less than a minute. Plenty tricks are being used daily by these disgruntled elements as they normally operate in pairs. One will distract you while the other will complete the job. Pls shine your eyes when driving.

Arthurwinner:
Well I'm not that super rich but I'm buoyant enough as God may have it...
To be very precise ....
I started dating this lady not too far from now and it have been moving nicely buh, lately i noticed some change in her attitude since she became very sure that I really love her...

For the past month we discussed about marriage and I told her that I'm going to marry her and truly I want to cos it feels like I CAN'T stay without her.....

But the problem is that since then whenever she's around I don't feel like coming back to my house after work cos all she does is to collect money for this or for that and when I try to tell ha that I don't have she always threatening to break up with me, every time I give her money to buy something that is when everything in the market becomes costly, sometimes I look at her and inmy mind I be lik'e "shey Dis gal no know say I sabi d price of all d things she dy lie abwt''
but I keep cool for the sake of peace...

Abeg can you imagine that a brown powder (Zara) she told she bought for 9k I checked it out and its sold for 3k... since night I haven't talked to her but as usual she's packing her bag now....I know in her[i][/i][s][/s] mind she's waiting for me to beg her or she leave ......

What do I do FAM .....I truly love her
Imagine. This your post is so disgusting to me as a person. Cos you did not sound like a man. You go carry a gold digger wey go run your life down, then maatee wen she don meet her target/chop you finish. How on earth would a girl or a lady threatens to leave me...haba my brother receive brain and push that good for nothing gal out of your life before it's too late. A lady that cannot manage your resources well during courtship would still not manage it well when you eventually marries her. Plus threatening to leave you if you fail to give her money. Biko, be wise. And look for a prudent lady.

Well, it's quite unfortunate that some people are taking this as joke. But then, it could be real. Because in this our world, so many evil and strange things happen every day. It is only when it happens to you that you will realize that such exits. The most important thing is to be more closer to our maker, the almighty God. Pray for God's grace to be able to live a sin-free life, so that prayers can be expressly answered when we offer them. locate a Bible believing Church where the true words of God are being preached. With your faith combined with that of the true believers (brethren) in warfare prayers, you can always overcome the devil and his cohorts. May the almighty God who is mighty in battle steps into her situations and take absolute control.
