alphaNomega:well I'm pretty clued up about Engines unlike yourself.The 1st group of mechanics that worked on that car killed it and misdiagnosed it, how can a cat converter be the reason for Engine refusal to start? I will re-ask you, what do you understand by rigging an Engine?? |

alphaNomega:I copied that from you cos you were the one telling OP to Ring his Engine, so I am asking you to explain your method or are you not the one advocating cost-effective ways to fix engine with old parts? |

erico2k2: I will give you N10,000 (Ten thousand naira only) if you can identify were I told OP to ring his engine. |

alphaNomega:first off, I don't use naira, if you can pay in POUNDS £££ then mayB I can dive into this foolishness you started. secondly, it was you who assumed opening an engine with a view of fixing it amounts to RIGING in your school of thought. I can bet any money the parts needed to fix that car's engine brand new might not be more than N300k 1 Like |

alphaNomega:Nigerians like to replace an old engine with another old engine when they can rebuild the engine they know. If you have a good tech, rebuild that engine! And if you cut corners good luck with that! I totally agree with you bruh 2 Likes |

ivoryhouse:The person you quoted is anti rebuild, he prefers replacing with an Old engine! The sad part they call the Old engine new |

erico2k2: It didnt refuse to start o. It was going off while I was driving. He said it was the catalyst that caused it to be going off and after he did it it hasn't gone off in motion since. It's the initial problem that came back again, I just put that history in case it somehow had a part in it |

thebigkendo: Yes... Once your car is shorting oil, your rings are bad... Trust me ! And these are in piston which makes the car engine to have compression ... A smoking car isn't a good thing! The blue smoke means that the rings are going but some cars are naturally prone to oil shortage Trust me an engine that is loosing oil too much isn't good and it's going ... It would be smoking https://gadqwaklnniai2.live/?utm_campaign=QPF8euu28II5lw7O2iHhCugVqK5RzfdNsTpLaMM91qY1&t=main9

Rhemmymatician:What you need to do is read about catalyst converter, how it works, what it is made of and the reason they are in your car then you will know you were J[b]OBBED They cant be repaired, can only be replaced! 1 Like |

AmuDimpka:This is where you get it wrong, almost every mechanic can rebuild an Engine, It's a simple matter of replacing your old Engine parts with new ones, that's rebuilding simply put! There is nothing more to it!, The money factor is the issue! |

LeJeun3:OK what else did I miss in rebuilding an Engine if not the complete change of Moving parts + all Seals? Im waiting to learn! So this my Definition of Engine rebuild An Engine Rebuild is defined as a process where the finished product is “as new”, inside and out. All parts that have “wear” on them get replaced with new items. This includes valves, pistons, bearings, seals, O-Rings, rubber or plastic parts, and gaskets. I am waiting for you to tell me something different! |

i experienced this same issue before Just asked your Mecho to drop and the engine and replace the metals inside your engine and with that the engine will get back to normalcy Thank me later Note: the car will be strong but the noise whenever you hit the throttle will not be like when it was new...it be thicker and roaring because of the replacements Nonetheless the car can work 48hours no stop |
Re: Lexus RX300 Issues With Ringing And Catalyst by LeJeun3: 9:53pm On Jun 30, 2020 |
erico2k2: - rebuild isnt as easy as replacing parts - not every mechanic can successfully do a rebuild - knowing what parts to replace doesnt necessary mean a rebuild will be successful - not every engine is meant to be rebuilt #myopinion 3 Likes 1 Share |

LeJeun3:Well, I think anybody who can strip down an Engine can repack it can rebuild.If you can change the Crankshaft of an engine, you can rebuild an engine, if you can change the oil pump or valve and seals, come on man, Im sure you get where I am coming from, however one needs the required tools to make it perfect ie torque range and timing kits etc! |
Re: Lexus RX300 Issues With Ringing And Catalyst by radautoworks: 10:28pm On Jun 30, 2020 |
erico2k2: Okay, I'm going to side with Lejeun and Co. No. Always easier to take apart than put back together. |
